partner select failback-replicaset select promote

Promotes a failback replica set stored in the group to the original volume.

You must pause inbound replication from the partner, and demote the recovery volume on the partner, before you can promote the failback replica set to the original volume.

If you want to maintain failback on the volume, you must replicate the volume to establish the new failback baseline.

Format

partner select partner_name failback-replicaset select set_name promote

Variables

partner_name

Group name of the partner to which the volume was replicated.

set_name

Name of a failback replica set in the group.

Example

The following commands pause inbound replication from the partner and promote a failback replica set to its original volume:

> partner select group2 inbound-pause

> partner select group2 failback-replicaset select vol6 promote

Failback replica set promotion succeeded. In order to establish a failback baseline, a new replica will be created.

The promoted volume is offline. You must set it online to use it. See volume select for more information.

In addition, to re-establish a failback baseline, you should replicate the volume immediately. See volume select replication create-replica.
