hi,
i like to change slave host to primary host in a vvr configuration.
before to do it ishould stop the replication between primary and secondary.right?
is this the command?vradmin -g vvr stoprep rvg_name host
after the secondary is primary i start the synchronization with
vradmin startrep?
or with vradmin syncrvg?
tnx

You don't need to stop the replication to swap the roles.
I'd normally use the vradmin migrate command to swap the roles, it does wait until the SRL is synchronised before swapping the roles. Otherwise you can use vradmin takeover if you understand what are you doing, because this can lead to some data loss if there are outstanding writes in the SRL

Stoprvg will stop replication, which I think is self-explanatory?

hi,
yes it is self explanatory but i think those commands are used when you need to break the connection between the rvg in primary and rvg in secondary.Pimary rvg will carries on with normal work and secondary is used to test things.right?
tnx
