(2) Operation 
procedure 
Step 1.    Terminating applications (backup server) 
To maintain data consistency, terminate or halt applications and specified services that are accessing the 
volume concerned. 
If shared folders are used on the volume concerned, cancel sharing temporarily. 
If application or service has not been halted or terminated, or accesses to shared folder exist, 
unmounting in step 3 fails. 
 
(Example) Halting service 
NET STOP (service name) 
When halting a service “ESMCommonService”, specify as follows: 
NET STOP ESMCommonService 
 
Step 2.    Flushing RV file system (backup server) 
Flush the RV file system and write the file system buffer data, not yet written, to the disk. 
iSMrc_flush –drv H: 
 
Thus, the following message appears and flushing occurs. 
Flush Start               2001/02/21 12:27:01 
              disk11                                        dev002                                            WN 
       \\?\Volume{37d84cca-2507-11d5-a0f7-00004c714491}\ 
              H: 
 
Flush Normal End         2001/02/21 12:27:01 
              disk11                                        dev002                                            WN 
       \\?\Volume{37d84cca-2507-11d5-a0f7-00004c714491}\ 
              H: 
 
Step 3.    Unmounting RV (backup server) 
Unmount RV and cancel the volume and file system associations. 
When the RV is unmounted, the mount point (drive letter or NTFS folder name) set for the volume is 
automatically deleted.    On Windows 2000, the RV access restriction is changed to Not Ready. 
* Set NOTREADY for the UMOUNT_RVACC parameter in the replication operation option setting 
file to suppress automatic RV mounting before operation. 
Before unmounting, you must close all applications that may access the drive.    Also read the 
description about unmounting in Chapter 3 “Notes”. 
iSMrc_umount –drv H:
