HP XP Command View Advanced Edition Software - Manual (Page 116)

NOTE:
To utilize, for example, the volume replication function within the storage system when the RAID
Manager instance for managing the primary volumes and the RAID Manager instance for managing
the secondary volumes are on the same server, specify the instance numbers as indicated below:
- Specify both
HORCMINST and HORCMINST_AUX .
For instance numbers to specify for HORCMINST and HORCMINST_AUX , see Table 24 .
- The values for HORCMINST and HORCMINST_AUX are reversed when specifying settings for either
file servers and database servers, or for backup servers.
To utilize, for example, the volume replication function between storage systems when the RAID
Manager instance for managing the primary volumes and the RAID Manager instance for managing
the secondary volumes are on separate servers, specify the instance numbers as indicated below:
- Specify only
HORCMINST (not HORCMINST_AUX ).
For instance numbers to specify for HORCMINST , see Table 24 .
- The RAID Manager instances specified in HORCMINST must be started on each server.
If a RAID Manager instance which is not located on the server is specified in HORCMINST_AUX , an
error message indicating failure to start the RAID Manager instance is output to the application log.
If the instance is not associated with the subject of processing, processing of the Application Agent
command will continue despite this error message. Also, the result of the command will not be affected.
It is recommended that you start the RAID Manager instances specified in
HORCMINST and
HORCMINST_AUX before executing a Application Agent command.
When specifying multiple instance numbers in HORCMINST and HORCMINST_AUX , write each
instance number on a separate line, as shown below:
HORCMINST=0
HORCMINST_AUX=1
HORCMINST=2
HORCMINST_AUX=3
In a cluster configuration, all servers making up the cluster must share the HORCMINST and
HORCMINST_AUX instance numbers in DEFAULT.dat .
• You can create two identical DEFAULT.dat files, and then place one DEFAULT.dat file on one
server and the other DEFAULT.dat file on the other server.
