Note
Because the mstrimport command overwrites existing files, it is recommended that you back up the files before executing the command. You use the mstrexport command to back up files. To save all files that will be overwritten when the mstrimport command is executed on the standby node, specify for the argument of the mstrexport command to be executed on the standby node the save target definition file specified for the mstrexport command executed at the executing node. If a save target definition file was specified when the mstrexport command was executed at the executing node, you must also specify a save target definition file when executing the mstrexport command at the standby node. The save target definition file to be specified in this case must be the same one specified when you backed up the executing node.
In UNIX, files restored using the mstrimport command are not assigned an execution permission automatically; you must assign the execution permission if necessary.
