Building Disaster Recovery Serviceguard Solutions Using Metrocluster with Continuous Access XP P9000 for Linux B.01.00.00

3. Create a RAID Manager configuration file for the remote array RAID Manager instance using
the RAID Manager configuration file template.
For Example,
# cp /etc/horcm.conf /etc/horcm1.conf
4. Configure the following parameters in the RAID Manager configuration file:
• HORCM_MON
Enter the host name of the system on which you are editing the file and the TCP/IP port
number specified for the RAID Manager instance in the /etc/services file.
• HORCM_CMD
Enter the device file names for the command device configured to manage the remote
array.
• HORCM_LDEV
Enter the details of all the devices in the remote XP or P9000 array for all device groups
to be managed by the instance. To obtain this information, run the raidscan command
on a node that is connected to the remote XP or P9000 array.
• HORCM_INST
Enter the following local array RAID Manager instance information for this parameter:
<device_group_name> <local_node_name>
<local_array_RAID_manager_instance>
5. Start the remote Array RAID Manager instance.
# horcmstart.sh <instance_number>
6. Update the HORCM_INST section in the local array RAID Manager instance file with the remote
array RAID Manager instance information.
HP recommends that you specify the remote array RAID Manager instance as the last entry
in this section of the configuration file.
<device_group_name> <local_node_name>
<remote_array_RAID_manager_instance>
7. Restart the local array RAID Manager instance so that the new information in the configuration
file is read.
# horcmshutdown.sh <instance_number>
# horcmstart.sh <instance_number>
8. Repeat steps 2 to 7 on all the other nodes in the primary site.
9. Repeat steps 2 to 7 on all the nodes in the remote site.
Configuring the remote array RAID Manager instance for automatic startup
After editing the remote array RAID Manager configuration files on the nodes, you must configure
the remote array RAID Manager instance to start automatically during node boot and package
startup.
