Creating an HACMP Resource Group to Add a Client

You must first create an HACMP resource group so you can add the client to it. The following is a summary of this procedure:

  1. Start HACMP for AIX system management with the following command:
    smit hacmp
    
  2. Select Cluster Configuration, Cluster Resources, Define Resource Groups, and Add a Resource Group. The Add a Resource Group window is displayed.
  3. On the Add a Resource Group window, enter the following field values:

    Resource Group Name
    Enter an ASCII text string that identifies the resource group. The resource group name can include alphabetic and numeric characters and underscores. Use no more than 31 characters.

    Node Relationship
    Select Cascading.

    Participating Node Names/Default Node Priority
    Select the node names that are participating in the resource group. Add the nodes in order of priority. The node owner of the resource group should be the first node listed.
  4. Click OK.
  5. Press F10 to exit smit and return to the command line. Press F3 to perform other configuration tasks.

The Tivoli Storage Manager client must be in a resource group with a cascading or rotating takeover relationship. The client does not support a concurrent access resource group. See HACMP for AIX 4.4.1 Planning Guide, SC23-4277, for additional information regarding HACMP topology and strategy.
