8.1.6 Reconfiguration

To change resources that make up the backup configuration, the AdvancedCopy Manager settings need to be changed. This section explains how to change the various types of settings.


8.1.6.1 Changing device information on source and replica volumes

To reconfigure the device used as a source or replica volume, the source or replica volume must first be deleted. The device can then be reconfigured and the volume set up.

The source or replica volume must be deleted before the device is reconfigured. Otherwise, the volume may not be deleted after the device reconfiguration.

This process is summarized as follows:

  1. Delete the source or replica volume on the device to be reconfigured. Refer to "7.6.2 Deleting a source volume or replica volume" for more information.

  2. Reconfigure the device.

  3. Add the device information. Refer to "7.4.4 Fetching device information on a Managed Server" for this operation.

  4. Specify the source or replica volume.

  5. Prepare a drive letter map file.


8.1.6.2 Changing hardware provider configuration Information

To reconfigure the disk (i.e., the LUN), follow the procedure below:

  1. On the primary node of the Exchange server, check the copy status using eternus_query (Status query command). If any copy is executing, stop it using eternus_stopcopy (Copy stop command).

  2. On the primary node of the Exchange server, execute eternus_copyset (Copy set registration/deletion/reference command) to delete the copy set information of the hardware provider.

  3. Delete the source or replica volume on the device to be reconfigured. Refer to "7.6.2 Deleting a source volume or replica volume" for more information.

  4. Reconfigure the device.

  5. Add the device information. Refer to "7.4.4 Fetching device information on a Managed Server" for information about this operation.

  6. On the primary node of the Exchange server, execute eternus_copyset (Copy set registration/deletion/reference command) to register the copy set information of the hardware provider.

  7. Execute "8.1.3.7 Saving the provider management file".

  8. Execute "8.1.3.8 Creating a device definition file".

  9. Execute "8.1.3.9 Saving the device definition file".

  10. Specify the source or replica volume.

  11. Prepare a drive letter map file.


8.1.6.3 Changing storage group information

If the storage group information registered by swsrpdbinfo ex2k3/swsrpdbinfo exchange (Exchange database information registration command) is changed, swsrpdbinfo ex2k3/swsrpdbinfo exchange (Exchange database information registration command) needs to be executed again to make the system reflect the changes.
The change in the storage group information is caused by a change in the device information on the source or replica volume. The device information must be changed before swsrpdbinfo ex2k3/swsrpdbinfo exchange (Exchange database information registration command) is executed.


8.1.6.4 Changing the Managed Server name

To change the Managed Server name, follow the procedure below:

  1. On the primary node of the Exchange server, check eternus_query (Status query command). If any copy is executing, stop it using eternus_stopcopy (Copy stop command).

  2. Delete the source or replica volume on the device to be reconfigured. Refer to "7.6.2 Deleting a source volume or replica volume" for more information.

  3. Change the Managed Server name. For details, refer to "11.5.4 Changing the server name of Management Server or Managed Server.

  4. On the primary node of the Exchange server, execute eternus_chgsrv (Copy set information server name change command) to register the provider copyset information. Execute eternus_copyset (Copy set registration/deletion/reference command) to check the updated content.

  5. At the backup server, execute eternus_chgsrv (Copy set information server name change command) to register the provider copyset information.

  6. Execute "8.1.3.7 Saving the provider management file".

  7. Execute "8.1.3.8 Creating a device definition file".

  8. Execute "8.1.3.9 Saving the device definition file".

  9. Specify the source or replica volume.
