HP IAP Version 2.0 Administrator Guide (July 2008)

• A database volume of 1000 MB is allocated on the backup server, if one does not already
exist under C:\WINNT\SYSTEM32\DB.2.
2. Initializing the library, storage paths, drives, device classes, and labeling of all of the media.
The following steps represent an example configuration and can vary from system to system.
• Libraries are defined. The name for the libraries is taken from the master configuration file
(bct) and the string “LIB” is added as a prefix(forexample,LIB.TAPE).
• A path is defined for each library. In the path, the device parameter specifies the dev ice
alias name of the library’s robotic mechanism.
• The devices that belong to each library a re defined. For each device a path is defined
that contains the device alias and the previously defined library name. A path is the
connecting element for the server, library, and device. (See the Tivoli Administration Guide
on “Defining Devices and Paths” at h
ttp://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/t ivihelp/
v1r1/index.jsp?topic=/com.ibm.itsmc w.doc/anrwgd55169.htm.)
•Anewdeviceclassisdefined. The device class name is the same as the library to which it will
be connected, except that the string DC is added as a prefix (for example, DC.TAPE). (See the
Tivoli Administration Guide on “Defining Device Classes” at h
ttp://publib.boulder.ibm.com/
infocenter/tivihelp/ v1r1/index.jsp?topic=/com.ibm.itsmcw.doc/anrwgd55272.htm.)
• All volumes in all libraries are labeled.
3. Defining a storage pool, domain, policy set, management class, and copy group for primary
group data.
• A storage pool is created using the device class that was previously defined.
(See the Tivoli Administration Guide on “Managing Storage Po ols a nd Volumes”
at h
ttp://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/tivihelp/v1r1/index.jsp?topic=/
com.ibm.itsmcw.do c/anrwgd55289.htm.)
• A policy domain, a policy set for that domain, and a management class that is assigned to
that domain are created.
•Thecopygroupisdefined and the storage pool is activated. The copy group defines
that the server will keep one version of a backed up file for an indefinite time.
(See the Tivoli Administration G uide on “Defining and Updating a Backup Copy
Group” at h

• Client nodes are registere d during the backup process that runs on the smart cells. Therefore,
no node is registered during the initial co nfiguration.
Addi
ngandlabelingnewmedia(Webinterface)
To ad
d, label, and check in new media, use the Add Volumes wizard that can be started from the Web
administration console. In the following example, two n ew empty volumes were (physically) added to
the library before the procedure was initiated.
1. Log on to the Tivoli Integrated Solutions Console by clicking Tivoli Web Console on the backup server
des
ktop, or by going to http://<PCC-SYSTEM-NAME>:8421/ibm/console.
2. On
the left, open the Tivoli Storage Manager > Storage Devices page.
Yo
u should see one entry for the backup server and one for the library. If no library is defined,
verify that the backup has been initialized with the command configTiv init and that the
server instance has been added to the Administration Center, as documented in the IAP Installation
Gu
ide version 2 .0.
