HP XP P9000 Replication Manager Software 7.6.1-00 Application Agent CLI User Guide
For example, if the dictionary map file directory is L:\PTM, the temporary directory name is L:\
script_work\operation-ID\DB.
Temporary files created during execution of the extended command:
• Backup ID record file
• Backup information file
• SQL Server's metafile (When the backup is of an SQL Server database)
Checking the copy-group list file
Certain extended commands allow you to specify a copy-group list file as an option value. A copy-group
list file is a file that contains a list of multiple copy groups. When you specify a copy-group list file as
an option value, before you start actual operations using the extended command, you need to execute
the extended command EX_DRM_CG_DEF_CHECK to determine whether the copy-group list file has
been set up correctly.
For information on what is checked in a copy-group list file, see the description on the
EX_DRM_CG_DEF_CHECK command in the manual HP P9000 Replication Manager Software
Application Agent CLI Reference Guide.
For information on how to create a copy-group list file, see “Creating a copy-group list file” on page 162.
Checking the FTP service (if you are going to back up to tape)
Before extended commands can be executed for backup to a tape, settings for inter-server file transfer
must be specified.
Make sure that the following operations are possible when the FTP service is active.
• Log on to the FTP server
• File transmission and reception using FTP for inter-file servers or between the database server and
backup server
Make sure that inter-server FTP transmission and reception is possible between the directories indicated
in the table below.
