This topic describes how to use the command line interface to fail over a namespace.

Procedure

  1. Switch to the namespace context and list the namespaces on the system.

    delphix> cd namespace
delphix namespace> ls
Objects
NAME           
[172.16.203.93]

Operations
lookup

  2. Select the namespace to failover.

    delphix namespace> select [172.16.203.93] 
delphix namespace "[172.16.203.93]">

  3. Failover the namespace.

    delphix namespace "[172.16.203.93]"> failover
delphix namespace "[172.16.203.93]" failover *> commit

    Failover

    Failover will sever the replication connection and make objects in the namespace part of the live system. This will prevent the target from receiving subsequent incremental updates.
