Create the configuration definition files.

For a new installation, use the configuration definition sample file that 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 your system configuration using a text editor (for example,
eve).

horcm0 xxxxx/udp xxxxx = port number horcm1 yyyyy/udp yyyyy = 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".

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 an independent process to the terminal
LOGOFF, use "RUN /DETACHED" command.

Set the HORCM instance numbers in the environment in which the command is to be executed:
$ HORCMINST:=X X = instance number (0 or 1)

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 XP7 RAID Manager
Reference Guide for information about horcmstart parameters.

If you want to perform Business Copy operations, 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 (for example, 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 of the 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.
RAID Manager provides the svcexe.exe command and a sample script file (HORCM0_run.txt) so
that RAID Manager can be started automatically as a service.
