57Data Replication Manager HSG80 ACS Version 8.7P Configuration Guide

Configuring a Standard Data

Replication Manager Solution

This chapter provides procedures for configuring your Data Replication Manager (DRM)

solution. Because a DRM system spans two sites, you must configure the DRM system at each

site.

These procedures take you through the configuration process. You will first set up the target

site, then the initiator site. Setup for each site is similar. At each site, you will configure the

controllers by defining controller characteristics specific to DRM. You will then define

storagesets, units, remote copy sets, and association sets. After the controllers are configured,

you will make fiber optic cable connections between the controllers and switches. Finally, you

will install the necessary software and drivers on each host.
