The following resources are necessary to install AdvancedCopy Manager on an HP version VERITAS Cluster Server:
Takeover IP address for AdvancedCopy Manager
Allocate a new IP address that is unique in the network for use in cluster system operations. 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 (that is, it does not restrict the use) in existing products that already use the logical IP address.
Partition where shared data for AdvancedCopy Manager is stored
Prepare sufficient partitions on the shared disks on which to store shared data for AdvancedCopy Manager. The table below lists the number 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 disks, see "3.2 Capacity of a shared disk".
Name | Storage server transaction |
|---|---|
Shared disk for AdvancedCopy Manager shared data | 1 |
Total number of partitions | 1 |

Define the shared disk for AdvancedCopy Manager shared data as the shared disk used by the VERITAS Cluster Server.
Assign a disk that is not backed up or replicated using AdvancedCopy Manager as the shared disk for AdvancedCopy Manager shared data.
The shared disk for AdvancedCopy Manager shared data is used as a file system. Make arrangements to enable mounting of the shared disk for AdvancedCopy Manager shared data.
