HP XP RAID Manager Software - Manual (Page 90)

Two instances
To start up two instances of RAID Manager on an OpenVMS system:
1.
Create the configuration definition files.
For a new installation, the configuration definition sample file is supplied
(SYS$POSIX_ROOT:[HORCM.etc]horcm.conf). Copy the file twice, once for each instance.
$ COPY SYS$POSIX_ROOT:[HORCM.etc]horcm.conf SYS$POSIX_ROOT:[etc] horcm0.conf
$ COPY SYS$POSIX_ROOT:[HORCM.etc]horcm.conf SYS$POSIX_ROOT:[etc] horcm1.conf
Edit these two files according to the system configuration using a text editor (e.g., eve).
Register the port name (service) of the configuration definition file in
“SYS$SYSROOT:[000000.TCPIP$ETC]SERVICES.DAT”.
horcm0 xxxxx/udp. Where "xxxxx" denotes a port number. horcm1 yyyyy/udp. Where
"xxxxx" denotes a port number.
Each instance should have a unique port number.
The port number can be directly specified without registering it in
“SYS$SYSROOT:[000000.TCPIP$ETC]SERVICES.DAT”.
2. Execute the HORCM startup command.
$ spawn /nowait /process=horcm0 horcmstart 0 $ spawn /nowait /process=horcm1 horcmstart
1
NOTE: The subprocess(HORCM) created by SPAWN is terminated when the terminal is
LOGOFF or the session is terminated. If you want independence Process to the terminal
LOGOFF, then use “RUN /DETACHED” command.
3. Set the HORCM instance numbers in the environment in which the command is to be executed:
$ HORCMINST:=X where “X” denotes an instance number (0 or 1)
4. Confirm the configuration using a RAID Manager command.
Set the log directory (HORCC_LOG) in the command execution environment as required.
NOTE: If the log directory under SYS$POSIX_ROOT is shared with other nodes, the log
directory of Horc Manager must be set for each node. The log directory of Horc Manager
can be changed by setting the parameter of horcmstart. See the HP P9000 RAID Manager
Reference Guide for information on horcmstart parameters.
When the command issued is for HOMRCF, set the environment variable (HORCC_MRCF). $
HORCC_MRCF:=1 $ pairdisplay -g xxxx xxxx denotes a group name.
NOTE: If a system configuration change or a RAID configuration change causes this file to
change (e.g., cache size change, microcode change), these changes will not take effect until you
stop HORCM (horcmshutdown 0 1) and restart HORCM (horcmstart 0 and horcmstart 1). Use the
“-c” option to pairdisplay command to verify that there are no configuration errors.
Starting RAID Manager as a service (Windows systems)
Usually, RAID Manager (HORCM) is started by executing the startup script from the Windows
services. However, in the VSS environment, there is no interface to automatically start RAID Manager.
As a result, RAID Manager provides the following svcexe.exe command and a sample script
(HORCM0_run.txt) file so that RAID Manager can be started automatically from the services:
