HP XP7 Replication Manager Application Agent CLI User Guide (TK981-96015, May 2014)

To check whether the RAID Manager configuration definition file you created is correct, test whether
a RAID Manager instance can be activated. For details on how to activate RAID Manager, see the
RAID Manager documentation. After you make sure that the RAID Manager instances can be activated
correctly, install Application Agent.
This subsection describes how to create RAID Manager configuration definition files for the following
operations:
• Back up one primary volume to multiple generations
• Back up multiple primary volumes to a single generation
• Back up multiple primary volumes to multiple generations
• Back up or restore between storage systems
• Set up a multi-target or cascade configuration
Backing up one primary volume to multiple generations
This subsection describes the configuration in which one primary volume is to be backed up to multiple
generations.
This configuration is used when, for example, all the files and databases to be backed up are stored
in one volume and multiple backup generations are obtained at set time intervals.
To back up one primary volume to multiple generations:
1. Define the given primary volume and a secondary volume pair from each generation.
2. Specify 0, 1, or 2 as the MU# (pair identifier) of each pair.
Figure 47 Volume configuration and configuration definition to back up one primary volume to
multiple generations
Backing up multiple primary volumes to a single generation
This subsection describes the configuration in which multiple primary volumes are to be backed up
to a single generation.
This configuration is used when, for example, the SQL Server master database and user database
are stored in different volumes.
