To create operation definition files (in a cluster configuration):
1. Create an operation definition file on the active server (database server A), and set the items you
need.
Create the file with the following name:
Application-Agent-installation-directory\DRM\script\conf\_Operation_A.dat
An example of entries in this file is as follows:
BACKUP_OBJECT=MSSQL
DB_SERVER_NAME=VServer_C
INSTANCE_NAME=INSTANCE_1
TARGET_NAME=
FTP_HOME_DIR=C:\FTP_ROOT
FTP_SUB_DIR=script
SET_DRM_HOSTNAME=1
2. On the active server (database server A), execute EX_DRM_SQL_DEF_CHECK, which is a check
tool for operation definition files.
EX_DRM_SQL_DEF_CHECK operation-ID -db
The operation definition file is checked. In addition, a temporary directory for extended commands
is automatically created.
If the tool detected an error, correct the contents of the file and then re-execute the check tool.
3. Copy the operation definition file you created on the active server (database server A) into the
backup server.
The copy destination is:
Application-Agent-installation-directory\DRM\script\conf\
