If HP XP7 RAID Manager is installed on a non-system drive, you must change the INSTALL_PATH
parameter in the XP7 RAID Manager linkage definition file (DEFAULT.dat) or change the XP7 RAID
Manager Installation Path setting in the Application Agent Settings window.
In addition, if you execute a VSS backup or manage a replica of Exchange Server, you must set the
system environment variable VSHTCRMENVF on the backup server. For details, see the explanation
about the settings necessary for using VSS in the HP XP7 Replication Manager Application Agent CLI
User Guide.
