The following resources are necessary to install AdvancedCopy Manager on an HP-version MC/ServiceGuard:
Takeover IP address for AdvancedCopy Manager
Allocate a new IP address that is unique in the network for use in cluster system operations. However, to use an IP address that is already in use for transactions, no new IP address for AdvancedCopy Manager need be allocated. One IP address is required per AdvancedCopy Manager transaction.
Fujitsu recommends preparing and adding a new logical IP address for AdvancedCopy Manager.
When allocating a new IP address, check whether existing transactions use the IP address as a takeover resource, and make sure that adding the corresponding IP address has no adverse effect on transactions. To use an existing logical IP address, make sure that sharing the logical IP address with AdvancedCopy Manager does not cause a problem in (ie, that it does not restrict) existing products that already use the logical IP address.
Partition where shared data is stored
Prepare partitions on the shared disks on which to store shared data. The table below lists the numbers of required partitions. Note that the listed values indicate the numbers of partitions required for every AdvancedCopy Manager transaction. For more information about the size of the shared disk for shared data, see "3.2 Capacity of a shared disk
Name | Storage Server transaction |
|---|---|
Shared disk for shared data | 1 |
Total number of partitions | 1 |
Note
The shared disk for shared data is defined as a shared disk of MC/ServiceGuard.
Assign a disk that is not backed up or replicated using AdvancedCopy Manager as the shared disk for shared data and the shared disk for the repository.
The shared disk for shared data is used as a file system. Make arrangements to enable mounting of the shared disk for shared data.
