DTSetup

2.

The first time you run DTSetup after an installation or upgrade, you will be prompted to review

the HP license agreement. Review the agreement and accept the terms of agreement by typing

yes. You cannot use Storage Mirroring without agreeing to the licensing terms.

3.

When the DTSetup menu appears, enter the number of the menu option you want to access. Use

the following list (with corresponding menu numbers) to understand each menu option.

1.

Setup tasks—Several setup tasks are required for Storage Mirroring functionality, including

an activation code for each server, at least one user in the Storage Mirroring administrator

group, and replication configuration for your source. The remaining items in the setup menu

are also Storage Mirroring configuration related, but are optional.

1.1.

Set activation code—For each server, you must specify a unique activation code,

which is an alpha-numeric code that applies the appropriate Storage Mirroring license

to your installation.

1.2.

Add/Remove users to Storage Mirroring groups—Storage Mirroring uses the

native operating system to provide security. Privileges are granted through

membership in user groups defined on each machine running Storage Mirroring. To

gain access to a particular Storage Mirroring source or target, the user must provide a

valid operating system user name and password and the specified user name must be a

member of one of the Storage Mirroring security groups. The administrator group

(dtadmin) provides full privileges and the monitor group (dtmon) provides a subset of

privileges. During the install, root is automatically added to the Storage Mirroring

administrator group. See

Security

on page 17-1 for details on security and the specific

privileges granted to each group.

1.2.1.

Add Storage Mirroring Administrator—This option adds users to the Storage

Mirroring administrator group.

1.2.2.

Remove Storage Mirroring Administrator—This option removes users from

the Storage Mirroring administrator group

1.2.3.

Add Storage Mirroring Monitor—This option adds users to the Storage

Mirroring monitor group.

1.2.4.

Remove Storage Mirroring Monitor—This option removes users from the

Storage Mirroring monitor group.

NOTE:

Do not run DTSetup using the sudo command. Use a real root shell to launch DTSetup

instead, either by logging in as root on the console or by using the login session of a

non-privileged user to run su - to start a root shell.
