General Procedure for Setting Up the Environment
Creating Configuration File Datasets
Notes on Changing Configuration Files with BCM
Perform the following operations as necessary if you use BCM to change the disk configuration
definition file, route list definition file, or copy group definition file while it is linked with P9000
Replication Manager:
• If you use BCM to change a configuration file, the P9000 Replication Manager information
is not automatically updated. After you change the configuration file, perform a refresh
operation in P9000 Replication Manager to reacquire the information.
• If necessary, update the initialization parameters of the BCM agent to match the changes in
the configuration file.
