Sample Script to Check and pause mirror prior to backup

Sample Script

:: The location where FCPUTIL resides
SET FCPUTIL = F:\fcserver\fcputil
SET LogFile = F:\fcServer\FCBackup.Log

:: ========= Check FirstClass Mirror ==================
::     The MCHECK command returns a valid error level code that can be checked with a batch script (such as this one).
::     The return codes are checked in descending order; any code greater than or equal to will match the tested error condition.
::     Each return code will execute a goto, where the commands to be executed, in each case, are located.

%FCPUTIL% MCHECK        

IF ERRORLEVEL 5 goto mirrorfail
::     This line checks for a return code of 5, which indicates a mirror failure.

IF ERRORLEVEL 4 goto notinsync
::     A return code of 4 indicates at least one mirror volume (or many) is still synchronizing.

IF ERRORLEVEL 3 goto notinsync
::     A return code of 3 indicates the mirror is still synchronizing.

IF ERRORLEVEL 2 goto insync
::     A return code of 2 indicates FirstClass mirroring is "Synchronized and Active".

IF ERRORLEVEL 1 goto nomirror
::     A return code of 1 indicates that FirstClass mirroring is not enabled.

goto paused
::     Return code of 0 indicates that FirstClass mirroring is not enabled.
::     You can use either 'pause' or 'pause mirror' in your script.

:: ================== Mirror is in Sync and can be paused ======================

:insync
::     This will only be executed if the MCHECK sends a return code of 2.

%FCPUTIL% pause mirror
::     Pause the FirstClass mirror.

::     Wait 30 seconds after issuing the PAUSE before checkig if it really has paused, then do the backup
%FCPUTIL% wait 30
%FCPUTIL% MCHECK
IF ERRORLEVEL 1 goto nopause
::     Test that the mirror pause was successful. If the above <> 1 then we can go ahead and back up

 

:: =========== StartBackup Routines ============================================
echo %date% %time%: Daily Backup Started>>"%LogFile%"
SET FCERROR=
:: Either write your backup procedures here or initiate another script that will trigger your backup
goto end
:: A null "" to indicate no errors.

:: =========== End Backup Routines =============================================

 

:: ================ fcutil ERROR handling routines ==============================
:nomirror
echo 4. FirstClass mirror not not enabled. Backup aborted! You will have to enable mirroring or shut down your FirstClass server to run a backup.
echo %date% %time%: Backup failed. Mirror not enabled >>"%LogFile%"
goto end
::     Display a console message for the operator that FirstClass mirroring is not enabled and that the backup is has been aborted.

:notinsync
echo 5. FirstClass mirror not synchronized. Backup aborted!
echo %date% %time%: Backup failed. Mirror not synchronized >>"%LogFile%"
goto end
::     Display a console message that the FirstClass mirror is not synchronizing and the backup has been aborted.

:mirrorfail
echo 6. FirstClass mirror has FAILED. Backup aborted!
echo %date% %time%: Backup failed. Mirror has failed >>"%LogFile%"
goto end
::     Display a console message that the FirstClass mirror has failed and that the backup has been aborted.

:paused
echo 7. Mirror already paused. Backup aborted!
echo %date% %time%: Mirror was paused, backup aborted>>"%LogFile%"
goto end
::     Display a console message that the mirror pause command failed and the backup has been aborted.

 

:nopause
echo 8. Mirror pause command failed. Backup aborted!
echo %date% %time%: Backup aborted. Unable to Pause Mirror>>"%LogFile%"
goto end
::     Display a console message that the FirstClass mirror pause command has failed and that the backup has been aborted.
