After a device is added to any Managed Server, incorporate it into the backup as described below.
This process can be carried out using either the Web Console or commands.
For information on adding a device using commands, refer to the following steps:
Use stgxfwcmsetdev (Device information collection/reflection command) to acquire information for the newly added device, and accept management information.
Use swstdevinfoset (Device information setting command) to set up the operation type of the added device.
If the added device was defined as a transaction volume, use swstbkpolset (Backup policy setting command) to set up the backup policy.
Note
System resources such as disk and memory resources may be insufficient when a device is added. Re-estimate the system resource requirements before adding a device.
Refer to "Required resources for operation" under "Operating environment of AdvancedCopy Manager's agent" in the "ETERNUS SF Installation and Setup Guide" for details.
There may not be sufficient area available for updating the repository when a device is added. Check if the area required when updating the repository is available before obtaining the device information. If there is insufficient area, free an area, then obtain the device information.
Refer to step 2 of "7.2.3 Troubleshooting: Failure in accessing a repository database" for details on checking the required area.
The repository (directory for the DB space that stores repository data) may be too small when a device is added. Re-estimate the repository size before adding a device. Refer to "Estimation of database size" in the "ETERNUS SF Installation and Setup Guide" for details.
If the estimation result is less than 65 megabytes, the size does not need to be increased. If it is more than 65 megabytes, extend the size before adding a device. Refer to "7.2.1 Troubleshooting: Insufficient free space in a repository" for details.
