Tivoli Storage Manager for UNIX Backup-Archive Clients Installation and User's Guide


Adding the Client to an HACMP Resource Group

The Tivoli Storage Manager client must be defined to a cluster resource group. See HACMP for AIX 4.4.1 Installation Guide, SC23-4278, for detailed instructions on how to perform this procedure. Following is a summary of how to define resources as part of a resource group:

  1. Start HACMP for AIX system management with the following command:
    smit hacmp
    
  2. Select Cluster Configuration, Cluster Resources, and Change/Show Resources/Attributes for a Resource Group. Press Enter.
  3. Select the desired resource group.
  4. Press Enter. The Configure a Resource Group screen appears.
  5. Enter values that define all the resources you want to add to this resource group.
  6. Synchronize cluster resources after entering field values in Step 5. Do this by selecting Cluster Configuration, Cluster Resources, and Synchronize Cluster Resources.
  7. 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 added to the resource group that contains the file systems to be backed up. These file systems must also be the same file systems specified by the domain option in the dsm.opt file defined for this client instance.

Both JFS and NFS file systems can be defined as cluster resources. NFS supports only 2 node clusters in a cascading takeover relationship.
