4.2.19 Cleaning Up the Switchover Source Site

When the switchover source site is operating, clean up the configuration information of the switchover source site. It is not necessary to perform this procedure when the switchover source site is not operating due to a disaster, or reinstalling the manager in order to perform recovery.

When executing the cleanup command in the above cases, add the -postdr option and the -deluser option.

Information

When the -postdr option is added to the cleanup command (rcxadm config cleanup), it unregisters the virtual L-Server resources and images deleted from managers, and VM guest information and VM image information linked to the resources ,from the VM management software.

This operation is necessary for synchronization of information on VM management software and Resource Orchestrator, when using the virtual L-Server switchover (VM guest) method.

When the -deluser option is added to the cleanup command (rcxadm config cleanup), it deletes the user resources deleted from managers and user information linked to the resources from directory services.
When directory services are shared between sites, deleting user information from directory services disables recovery of the deleted user information, so ensure users are not deleted.

Example

  • After site switchover, when performing virtual L-Server switchover (VM guest), and directory service information is shared among sites

    [Windows Manager]

    >Installation_folder\SVROR\Manager\bin\rcxadm config cleanup -postdr <RETURN>

    [Linux Manager]

    # /opt/FJSVrcvmr/bin/rcxadm config cleanup -postdr <RETURN>

  • When not performing virtual L-Server switchover (VM guest) in the tenant, and the directory service information is not shared among sites, after switchover of tenant (tenant1), which is not the last one

    [Windows Manager]

    >Installation_folder\SVROR\Manager\bin\rcxadm config cleanup -tenant tenant1 -deluser <RETURN>

    [Linux Manager]

    # /opt/FJSVrcvmr/bin/rcxadm config cleanup -tenant tenant1 -deluser <RETURN>

Point

  • When the cleanup target L-Servers are in Unknown status, only the management information of managers is cleaned up. As the entities of the VM guest inventory and the cloning images are not deleted, manually delete them from the VM management software, after the managed servers are recovered.

  • When the automatic collection of switchover information is enabled, performing cleanup disables the setting.
    Refer to "3.7 Configuring Automatic Collection of Switchover Information" to enable the configuration.

    When operation is performed with the switchover information folder specified as the additional recovery information folder as described in the "Information" of "3.3 Manager Installation and Configuration", perform "4.6 Additional Recovery Operation after Failback" before performing export of configuration information and recommencement of automatic collection of switchover information using the following procedure.
