provision (Application Control and Management)--Provision Application

Provision, configure, and start an application. Application configuration parameters may be specified for the new application and sizes for application user and singleton class volumes.

Syntax

app provision <template-app> <target-app> [<option>]* [<prop>=<val>]* [<vol>.[parN].size=<val>]* 

Parameters

<template-app>

Name of existing application to use as a template.

<target-app>

name of the application that is to be created - the application must not currently exist.

<prop>=<val>

Config parameter pairs as used for the 'app config command.

<vol>.size=<val>

Specify new size for application user or singleton class volumes. Units may be specified (for example, 128M[B], 2G[B]). If units are not provided, it is assumed that the size is in MB. The value can be absolute (that is, 20G) or relative (that is, +10G).

--skipstart

Skip starting of new application

--fscpy

Force copying of volumes using filesystem-level copy. If not specified, volumes are copied using filesystem-level copy only if they are being resized.

--prefill

Allocate ALL blocks for copied volumes. This option is only valid if --fscpy is specified; otherwise it is ignored.

Examples

app provision crm crm2 user_ip=64.4.47.21 out_ip=64.4.47.22
app provision myapp myapp-new data.size=128M mysql.data.size=256M
app provision myapp myapp-new data.size=128M mysql.boot.par1.size=256M mysql.boot.par2.root.size=1G

Notes:

• This command will fail if the template application is running.
• This command will fail if the template application does not have the 'template' attribute set. See 'app config'.
• This operation is similar to 'app copy' with added volume resizing, configuration, and application start.
• If more than one partition is being resized, they need to be supported by the same Filer or the operation will fail.
• See 'help app config' for online help on properties and resources. The full and per-property reset are not supported (--reset and -d <prop>).
• Specifying partitions, as is available in the distributed version of the product, will currently result in an error.
