2.4.4 Required resources for operation


2.4.4.1 Required disk space for operation

For operating AdvancedCopy Manager's agent, in addition to disk space described in "2.4.3.1 Required disk space for installation", the server on which it is installed must have free disk space as described below.

For Windows environment

Directory name

Required disk space
(Unit: MB)

Explanation

Environment Directory

For performing the backup operation on the Managed Server:

  • If not backing up the Symfoware:
    (a + 35 * b) / 1024

  • If backing up the Symfoware:
    ((a + 35 * b) + (b + 0.5 * d)) / 1024

a: Number of backup volumes.
b: Number of transaction volumes.
c: Number of DSIs of all database spaces to be backed up.
d: Number of volume pairs for replication management.

For performing the replication operation on the Managed Server:

(1.1 * c) / 1024

Work Directory

1107 + e

e: Capacity of saved file that is output according to "Volume lock error investigation function" in the ETERNUS SF AdvancedCopy Manager Operation Guide (for Windows).
The output for each number of backup and transaction volumes and for each volume pair for replication management is made in sizes between several hundred KB and 2 MB each time an "in-use lock error" occurs.

- Assuming a size of 2 MB per saved volume file, for n times an "in-use lock error" occurs, capacity e is determined by the following formula:

e = (a + b + 2 * c) * 2(MB) * n(times)
