Note the following general points on cluster operation:
Do not make a SWSTGNODE registration that configures an environment variable to the entire system.
For backup operations, register the transaction volume and backup volume as physical disk resources.
For replication operations, register the copy source volume and the copy destination volume (only for replication on single server) as physical disk resources.
AdvancedCopy Manager uses specific names (gXdXpX) for device administration. It associates the names of devices it is using with those identified by the operating system when its services start. At this time, all devices to be used must be identifiable.
For cluster operation, set the dependency between volumes used for AdvancedCopy Manager and its services in order to start the disk resources before the services start.
Set the dependency when you:
Add a transaction to or delete a transaction from the cluster group, or
Add a volume to or delete a volume from a transaction.
Set the dependency using the failover cluster manager according to the following procedure:
Note
Do not change any information other than the dependency.
Select the cluster group you want to handle in the "Failover cluster manager" window.
In "Services and Applications", select the group to be used in AdvancedCopy Manager.
Select Services: [AdvancedCopy COM Service_logicalNodeName], and in the Operations menu select Properties.
Select the Dependencies tab. If the disk used in AdvancedCopy Manager has not been registered, select "Insert" to add the disk.
Click OK to close the properties window.
Close the "Failover cluster manager" window.
