You must set a number of options when performing backup to a backup volume in a cabinet that is different from the cabinet containing the transaction volume.
Backup operations may not be able to continue if the options setup file is changed after operations start. Therefore, do not change the options setup file after operations start.
If the options setup file is changed, the backup policy must also be reset.
Note
The ETERNUS storage system must support the REC and ROPC functions.
Both cabinets must be connected to an FCRA (FC Remote Adapter).
Since data flows only from the Initiator side to the Target side through an FCRA connection, FCRA connections must be established in sets of two or more.
In a backup involving an ETERNUS storage system that does not support the ROPC function, only the REC function can be used. In this case, you cannot backup data to a backup volume in a cabinet which does not contain a transaction volume, because the backup uses the ROPC function during restore.
Create the following files to set the options:
/etc/opt/FJSVswsts/data/DEFAULT/check.ini
/etc/opt/FJSVswsts/logical-node-name(*1)/data/DEFAULT/check.ini
(*1) Logical node name of AdvancedCopy Manager specified during setting up of a cluster.
Update the file with the following lines:
[check] RemoteCopy=Yes |
