Do not edit the configuration definition file while RAID Manager is running. Shut down RAID
Manager, edit the configuration file as needed, and then restart RAID Manager.
Do not mix pairs created with the "pair splitting with specifying the consistency group" option (-m
grp) and pairs created without this option in the same group defined in the RAID Manager
configuration file. If you do, a pairsplit operation might end abnormally, or S-VOLs of the P-VOLs
in the same consistency group (CTG) might not be created correctly at the time the pairsplit request
is received.
Configuration definition file settings
(1) HORCM_MON
The monitor parameter (HORCM_MON) defines the following values:
•
Ip_address: The IP address of the local host. When HORCM has two or more network addresses
on different subnets for communication, this must be set to NONE.
•
Service: Specifies the UDP port name assigned to the HORCM communication path, which is
registered in "/etc/services" ("%windir%\system32\drivers\etc\services" in Windows,
"SYS$SYSROOT:[000000.TCPIP$ETC]SERVICES.DAT" in OpenVMS). If a port number is
specified instead of a port name, the port number will be used.
•
Poll: The interval for monitoring paired volumes. To reduce the HORCM daemon load, make
this interval longer. If set to -1, the paired volumes are not monitored. The value of -1 is specified
when two or more RAID Manager instances run on a single machine.
•
Timeout: The time-out period of communication with the remote server.
If HORCM_MON is not specified, then sets the following as defaults.
HORCM_MON
#ip_address service poll(10ms) timeout(10ms)
NONE default_port 1000 3000H
Default_port:
For none specified HORCM instance: "31000 + 0"
For instance HORCM X : "31000 + X + 1"
