• How to create a cluster information configuration definition file (when Veritas Cluster Server is
used)
A cluster information configuration definition file needs to be created only when Veritas Cluster
Server is used as the cluster software. If the cluster software is Microsoft Cluster Service or Windows
Server Failover Clustering, you do not need to create a cluster information configuration definition
file.
Settings related to shared disks and cluster groups
If the file server or database server is set up in a cluster configuration, you must create the storage
directories used by Application Agent for dictionary map files and other files on a shared disk.
The following table lists and describes directories that need to be created on a shared disk and the
location of explanations on how to create the directories.

Define, in the cluster group, shared disks to be used by Application Agent.
The following explains definitions of each cluster group.
How to define a cluster group (when a backup target and shared disks are to be in the same
cluster group)
Define a backup target and shared disks used by Application Agent in the same cluster group.
When the backup is of a file system
Define shared disks in the same cluster group as the one monitoring disks to be backed up in the
file system.
When the backup is of an SQL Server database
Define shared disks in the same cluster group as the one containing instances to be backed up.
When the backup is of an Exchange database
Define shared disks in the same cluster group as the one containing storage groups to be backed
up.
The following figure shows the case where the backup target and shared disks are in the same group:
