</PRE>
<P><STRONG>Description</STRONG>
<P>The <B>vos backup</B> command clones the indicated read/write volume to
create a backup version, placing it at the same site as the read/write
version. The backup volume's name is the same as the read/write
source's with the addition of the <B>.backup</B>
extension. Its volume ID number is the one allocated for it in the
Volume Location Database (VLDB) when the read/write source was created with
the <B>vos create</B> command. If a backup version already exists,
the new clone replaces it.
<P>To create a backup version of multiple volumes, use the <B>vos
backupsys</B> command.
<P><STRONG>Options</STRONG>
<DL>
<P><DT><B>-id
</B><DD>Specifies either the complete name or volume ID number of the read/write
source volume.
<P><DT><B>-cell
</B><DD>Names the cell in which to run the command. Do not combine this
argument with the <B>-localauth</B> flag. For more details, see the
introductory <B>vos</B> reference page.
<P><DT><B>-noauth
</B><DD>Assigns the unprivileged identity <B>anonymous</B> to the
issuer. Do not combine this flag with the <B>-localauth</B>
flag. For more details, see the introductory <B>vos</B> reference
page.
<P><DT><B>-localauth
</B><DD>Constructs a server ticket using a key from the local
<B>/usr/afs/etc/KeyFile</B> file. The <B>vos</B> command
interpreter presents it to the Volume Server and Volume Location Server during
mutual authentication. Do not combine this flag with the
<B>-cell</B> argument or <B>-noauth</B> flag. For more details,
see the introductory <B>vos</B> reference page.
<P><DT><B>-verbose
</B><DD>Produces on the standard output stream a detailed trace of the
command's execution. If this argument is omitted, only warnings
and error messages appear.
<P><DT><B>-help
</B><DD>Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options
are ignored.
</DL>
<P><STRONG>Output</STRONG>
<P>The following message confirms that the command succeeded:
<PRE> Created backup volume for <VAR>volume name</VAR>
</PRE>
<P><STRONG>Examples</STRONG>
<P>The following example creates a backup version of the volume
<B>user.smith</B>.
<PRE> % <B>vos backup user.smith</B>
Created backup volume for user.smith
</PRE>
<P><STRONG>Privilege Required</STRONG>
<P>The issuer must be listed in the <B>/usr/afs/etc/UserList</B> file on
the machine specified with the <B>-server</B> argument and on each
database server machine. If the <B>-localauth</B> flag is included,
the issuer must instead be logged on to a server machine as the local
superuser <B>root</B>.
