Accessing an off-host repository in a non-VCS
environment
When creating an off-host clone database in a non-VCS environment, you must
make sure that the secondary host has access to the SFDB repository located on
the primary host. Because there is no cluster file system to ensure this shared
access, you must establish access by copying the primary host's .odbc.ini file
to the secondary host.
To share an off-host SFDB repository in a non-VCS environment
◆
Copy the DNS file /etc/vx/vxdbed/.odbc.ini from the primary host (where
the repository exists and is mounted) to the corresponding location on the
secondary host. Use a remote file copy utility such as rcp, tcp, or scp to make
this copy.
For example, to use rcp from the primary host:
# rcp /etc/vx/vxdbed/.odbc.ini second_host:/etc/vx/vxdbed
