• For Tape Server transactions

  Prepare and check the items required for any Storage Management Server transactions or Storage Server transactions that coexist with the Tape Server transaction.

  Content of each item

  • Logical node name

    This is a name of the logical server in the AdvancedCopy Manager. The user can set any logical node name that does not exceed eight alphanumeric characters.

    For logical node name, see "1.3.1 Cluster transaction and local transaction of AdvancedCopy Manager".

    Note

    13-character strings of the following table cannot be made into a logical node name for Solaris-version SynfinityCluster/PRIMECLUSTER, Solaris-version VERITAS Cluster Server, Solaris-version Sun Cluster, Linux-version PRIMECLUSTER, HP-version MC/ServiceGuard, HP-version VERITAS Cluster Server, AIX-version High Availability Cluster Multi-Processing, and AIX-version VERITAS Cluster Server.

    Table 3.16 Character strings that cannot be used in logical node names

    audit	cluster	cmdevs	config	daemon	data	java
    log	pid	report	samp	sh	tmp

  • Port number for the transaction communication daemon

    Prepare the port number to be allocated to the transaction communication daemon.

    A port number must be an integer from 1024 to 65535 (from 5001 to 65535, in case of Windows-version MSCS/WSFC) that is currently not being used by another port. Also, a port number must be the same on both the primary node and secondary node because operations are cluster transactions.

    Note

    Make the port number of the communication daemon for Storage management server transaction into a different number from the port number of the communication daemon for local storage server transaction.

  • Service name

    This is the name of the cluster transaction.

  • Logical IP address

    Refer to the paragraph of "resource required" corresponding to the cluster system of "3.1 Resourcess".

    Note

    Check the subnet mask for Windows-version Microsoft(R) Cluster Service/Windows Server(R) Failover Clustering and HP-version MC/ServiceGuard.

  • Shared disk information for share data

    Refer to the paragraph of "resource required" corresponding to the cluster system of "3.1 Resourcess".

  • Shared disk information for repository

    Refer to the paragraph of "resource required" corresponding to the cluster system of "3.1 Resourcess".

  • The user name and password for repository access

    Prepare the user name and password for repository access.

    Note

    The local logon authority is needed for Windows-version Microsoft(R) Cluster Service/Windows Server(R) Failover Clustering. When the prepared user name is not registered in a system, register it in the system and add the local logon authority to it by cluster setup command. A user name is registered in a primary node and a secondary node.

    It is necessary to register beforehand for all nodes for Solaris-version SynfinityCluster/PRIMECLUSTER, Solaris-version VERITAS Cluster Server, and Linux-version PRIMECLUSTER.

  • Resource type

    This determines the procedure resource/command line resource.

    Note

    Only the status transition procedure can be used under the Solaris version of SynfinityCluster.

  • User when installing

    The user and the password that installs AdvancedCopy Manager are confirmed.

  • Cluster Name

    The cluster name specified with Microsoft(R) Cluster Service/Windows Server(R) Failover Clustering is confirmed. Refer to the manual of Microsoft(R) Cluster Service/Windows Server(R) Failover Clustering for details.

  • Disk resource of the shared disk for share data

    The disk resource name of the shared disk for share data is confirmed.

  • Network Name

    When a new logical IP address is used, the network name for AdvancedCopy Manager is prepared. AdvancedCopy Manager makes the network resource by this network name. Refer to the manual of Microsoft(R) Cluster Service/Windows Server(R) Failover Clustering for details.

  • External Connection Network

    When a new logical IP address is used, the network name for the external connection specified with Microsoft(R) Cluster Service/Windows Server(R) Failover Clustering is confirmed. Refer to the manual of Microsoft(R) Cluster Service/Windows Server(R) Failover Clustering for details.

  • IP Address Resource

    When an existing logical IP address is used, the IP address resource name to which logical IP address is set is confirmed.

  • Volume Group Name

    The volume group name of the shared disk for the share data is confirmed.
