Install the Resource Orchestrator manager on the admin servers of the switchover source and destination sites.
For details, refer to the following:
For Disaster Recovery environments, configure as follows.
When the environment is configured so that disaster recovery is transparent to ROR console users, SVOM and VIOM need to be installed on the admin server of the switchover destination site under either of the following conditions. Once installation is complete, the conditions do not apply.
When performing VMware virtual L-Server switchover (VM guest), install the VMware vSphere Command-Line Interface (vCLI) corresponding to the VMware vCenter Server version on the servers (such as admin servers) which can communicate with VMware vCenter Server.
When there are VMware vCenter Server 6 and VMware ESXi 6, it is necessary to configure the authentication settings, after installing the VMware vSphere Command-Line Interface (vCLI).
For details, refer to the following URL:
URL: http://kb.vmware.com/kb/2108416
For the authentication settings, take one of the following corrective actions described in the reference:
Certificate files in the following folder on both the switchover source and destination sites must be the same files. When installing a manager on the switchover destination site, copy the files from the switchover source site. Perform this operation after stopping the manager.
When configuring a single switchover destination site to inherit multiple switchover source sites, copy the following files of the manager on the switchover source site that is first created to the managers on the other switchover source sites.
[Windows Manager]
[Linux Manager]
For details, refer to "Chapter 2 Installation" and "Chapter 3 SSL Communication Environment Settings for the ROR Console" in the "Setup Guide CE".
Note
The site certificate that was issued by the CA should be used for the Disaster Recovery environment.
When test certificates are used, certificates on the switchover destination site also need to be imported to the browser during installation or after switchover.
For details, refer to "Chapter 5 Importing a Certificate to a Browser" in the "Setup Guide CE".
When using Disaster Recovery, a license for the "DR option" is necessary.
After installing Resource Orchestrator, register the license for the "DR option" on the switchover source and destination sites.
For details on how to register the license, refer to "Chapter 4 License Setup and Confirmation" in the "Setup Guide CE".
[OVM for SPARC]
To use an OVM for SPARC managed server as the server for DR, it is necessary to install the FUJITSU Software ServerView Resource Orchestrator DR Option Media Pack.
For details on installation, refer to "1.1.9 Overview of Functions Provided in the FUJITSU Software ServerView Resource Orchestrator DR Option for Solaris" in the "Release Notes".

Lines other than the following that begin with sharp signs ("#") are comments in this definition file.
Blank lines in this definition file are regarded as meaningless and skipped.
Example
[Windows Manager]
Enter the following descriptions, when using the folder configurations described as examples in "3.2 Creating Switchover Information Storage Folders", and when mounting the switchover information storage folders replicated to the switchover destination site on the E drive during switchover.
|
#rcxstorage_define D:\Export #rcxmgrexport_define D:\Export\ManagerExport #rcxrecovery_define E:\Export |
[Linux Manager]
Enter the following descriptions, when using the folder configurations described as examples in "3.2 Creating Switchover Information Storage Folders", and when mounting the switchover information storage folders replicated to the switchover destination site on /DRImport during switchover.
|
#rcxstorage_define /DRExport/Export #rcxmgrexport_define /DRExport/Export/ManagerExport #rcxrecovery_define /DRImport/Export |
Information
Create the DR definition file "fa_dr.rcxprop" using the following sample files.
[Windows Manager]
Installation_folder\SVROR\Manager\etc\customize_data\fa_dr.rcxprop.sample
[Linux Manager]
/etc/opt/FJSVrcvmr/customize_data/fa_dr.rcxprop.sample

Installation_folder\SVROR\Manager\etc\customize_data\fa_dr.rcxprop
[Linux Manager]
/etc/opt/FJSVrcvmr/customize_data/fa_dr.rcxprop
Example
[Windows Manager]
When using "C:\Users\Administrator\work\DRsalvage\Export" for the additional recovery information folder, describe it as follows:
|
#salvage_define C:\Users\Administrator\work\DRsalvage\Export |
[Linux Manager]
When using "/root/work/DRsalvage/Export" for the additional recovery information folder, describe it as follows:
|
#salvage_define /root/work/DRsalvage/Export |
Information
When the contents of the switchover information storage folder will be kept as they are after a switchover operation and will not be modified until additional recovery after failback, the switchover information storage folder can be specified as the additional recovery information folder.
[Windows Manager]
When "D:\Export\ManagerExport" is set for "#rcxmgrexport_define" in fa_dr.rcxprop, describe the following lines in the same file:
|
#salvage_define D:\Export |
[Linux Manager]
When "/DRExport/Export/ManagerExport" is set for "#rcxmgrexport_define" in fa_dr.rcxprop, describe the following lines in the same file:
|
#salvage_define /DRExport/Export |
Before starting an additional recovery operation, ensure that the switchover information storage folder has not been updated by switchover information collection (through the rcxmgrexport command) after failback.
Then perform the additional recovery.

Example
When the DR operation method is Active-Active, enter the following content:
|
#DR Operation Method DR_operation_method=1 #Config File Switchover config_file_switchover=true |
When the DR operation method is Active-Standby, enter the following content:
|
#DR Operation Method DR_operation_method=2 #Config File Switchover config_file_switchover=true |
Information
For the files that are taken over by automatic takeover of configuration files, refer to "Appendix F Target Files of Automatic Takeover of Configuration Files".
Even when whether to enable or disable automatic takeover of configuration files is specified in the DR definition file (fa_dr.rcxprop), the value specified using the -config_file_switchover option of the batch recovery command (the rcxrecovery command), which is executed on the switchover destination site, is given priority.
For details on the rcxrecovery command, refer to "B.2 rcxrecovery".
