4.5 Reuse of Tiering Policy Definitions

These are the procedures for taking Tiering policy definitions created with a separate environment and reusing them with a new environment.

This enables Tiering policy definitions utilized in a separate environment to be reused as is without having to be created again.

Note

When Tiering policies have been registered with the new environment, definitions of a separate environment cannot be reused.
In order to enable reuse, re-perform this procedure after deleting the Tiering policy definitions that have already been registered.

The procedures of the configuration are as follows:

  1. Stop the ETERNUS SF Manager Tomcat service of the new environment.

    • When using the Manager for Windows:

      Stop the following service in the Windows Services screen.

      • ETERNUS SF Manager Tomcat Service

    • When using the Manager for Solaris or Linux:

      Execute the following shell script to stop the service.

      /opt/FJSVesfcm/bin/stop-webservice.sh
  2. Back up the Tiering policy definitions of the separate environment.

    Perform a backup of the following files.

    • When using the Manager for Windows:

      $ENV_DIR\AST\Manager\etc\opt\FJSVssast\data\policy\TierPolicy.xml
      $ENV_DIR\AST\Manager\etc\opt\FJSVssast\data\policy\tierPolicyName.xml

      $ENV_DIR is the "environment configuration directory" of when the ETERNUS SF Manager was installed on the separate environment.

    • When using the Manager for Solaris or Linux:

      /etc/opt/FJSVssat/data/policy/TierPolicy.xml
      /etc/opt/FJSVssat/data/policy/tierPolicyName.xml
  3. Reflect the tiering policy definitions to the new environment.

    Place files that have been backed up from the separate environment into the same folder of the new environment.

    • When using the Manager for Windows:

      $ENV_DIR\AST\Manager\etc\opt\FJSVssast\data\policy\TierPolicy.xml
      $ENV_DIR\AST\Manager\etc\opt\FJSVssast\data\policy\tierPolicyName.xml

      $ENV_DIR is the "environment configuration directory" of when the ETERNUS SF Manager was installed on the new environment.

    • When using the Manager for Solaris or Linux:

      /etc/opt/FJSVssat/data/policy/TierPolicy.xml
      /etc/opt/FJSVssat/data/policy/tierPolicyName.xml
  4. Start the ETERRNUS SF Manager Tomcat service of the new environment.

    • When using the Manager for Windows:

      Start the following service in the Windows Services screen.

      • ETERNUS SF Manager Tomcat Service

    • When using the Manager for Solaris or Linux:

      Execute the following shell script to start the service.

      /opt/FJSVesfcm/bin/start-webservice.sh
  5. Execute the 9.1.1 esfadm tierpolicy import (Tiering policy import command) to register the placed Tiering policies.
