4.9.2 Customization Procedure

To set up a Storage Server transaction, use the procedure below.

  1. Restart the system.

    Restart the primary node and all secondary nodes. If the system is restarted as an extension of the installation process of AdvancedCopy Manager, proceed to step 2.

  2. Check the preparations.

    Check each item of "3.3 Confirmation of items" for the package to be set up.

  3. Mount the shared disk on the primary node.

    Mount the shared disk for shared data on the primary node.

  4. Stop the Resource Groups.

    To add a Storage Server transaction to an existing Resource Group by using the High Availability Cluster Multi-Processing function, stop the applicable Resource Group.

    For information on how to stop the user Resource Group, see the "High Availability Cluster Multi-Processing User's Guide."

  5. Register port numbers

    Register the port number for the transaction communication in /etc/services. Use an OS command such as vi to register it in /etc/services.

    • Transaction communication daemon: stgxfws_Logical-Node-Name

    Note

    Register the same port number on the primary node and all secondary nodes.

  6. Execute the cluster setup command on the primary node.

    On the primary node, execute the following cluster setup command after blocking other users from accessing the shared disk for shared data:

    Example

    # /opt/swstorage/bin/stgclset_hacmp -k Primary -m /STGAGTMNT -n nodeAGT -s agent_service

    Refer to "8.2.8 stgclset_hacmp (AIX edition High Availability Cluster Multi-Processing environment setup command)" for command details.

  7. Check the setup object.

    Information about the logical node specified by the command is displayed. After confirming the displayed information, press the Enter key.

    # /opt/swstorage/bin/stgclset_hacmp -k Primary -m /STGAGTMNT -n nodeAGT -s agent_service

  21. Create and register a Resource Group.

    Use the function of the High Availability Cluster Multi-Processing to create and register a Resource Group for AdvancedCopy Manager.

    Please add the following types as a resource of AdvancedCopy Manager.

    • Application Server

      Specify a "/opt/FJSVswstf/cluster/clproc/hacmpStart_Logical-Node-Name" to be Start script.

      Specify a "/opt/FJSVswstf/cluster/clproc/hacmpStop_Logical-Node-Name" to be Stop script.

    • MountPoint

      Register the shared disk for share data.

    • IP

      Register the logical IP address for AdvancedCopy Manager. When using the logical IP address already used in the system, it is not necessary to register it again.

    The application should set up a dependency after MountPoint and IP become on-line.

    Refer to the High Availability Cluster Multi-Processing User's Guide for information about a resource group and the creation/registration method for a resource.

  22. Start the AdvancedCopy Manager and Transaction.

    Start the new Resource Group or the Resource Group stopped in step 4.

    Please refer to the High Availability Cluster Multi-Processing User's Guide about the method of starting a Resource Group.

  23. Back up the environment.

    To safeguard against accidental loss of data or file corruption, back up the following environments.

    • Data on the shared disk for shared data

      Use an OS command such as cp to back up the following directories on the shared disk for shared data:

      • Mountpoint-of-shared-disk-for-AdvancedCopy-Manager-shared-data/etc

      • Mountpoint-of-shared-disk-for-AdvancedCopy-Manager-shared-data/var

  24. Create an environment for a Storage Server transaction.

    Use the Web GUI of AdvancedCopy Manager to create an environment for a Storage Server transaction.

    Note

    Create an environment for a Storage Management Server transaction and an environment for a Storage Server transaction by referring to the "ETERNUS SF AdvancedCopy Manager Operator's Guide (AIX)"
