Figure 53 Example of creating dictionary map files in an Active-Passive cluster configuration
To create dictionary map files in an Active-Passive cluster configuration:
1. Change the locations of the dictionary map files and backup catalog.
In the init.conf configuration definition files of Application Agent on the active and standby
servers respectively, add the DRM_DB_PATH=directory-on-the-shared-disk;virtual-server-name
entry. When editing the files, note the following points:
• Add the entry to the last line of the init.conf file.
• After directory-on-the-shared-disk;virtual-server-name, always enter a
linefeed code.
• Specify a shared disk that is different from the volume to be backed up. Do not specify a
shared disk that is configured as part of a pair volume that is to be backed up.
• The extended commands automatically create a temporary directory during operations. The
location of the temporary directory for extended commands is at the same level as the directory
that stores the dictionary map files. To use the extended commands in a cluster configuration,
the directory that stores the dictionary map files must be on a shared disk so that the extended
commands can share the temporary directory.
• Specify a directory name by using an absolute path.
Note
If Veritas Cluster Server is used in the cluster configuration, the virtual server name in
DRM_DB_PATH must be the same as VirtualName of the Lanman resource that exists in
the service group to be backed up.
Note
If the backup target is an Exchange database, specify the name of the Exchange virtual
server as the virtual server name in DRM_DB_PATH.
The following shows an example entry in the Application Agent configuration definition file
(init.conf).
RM_DB_PATH=H:\PTM;VHOST
