Figure 57 Example of locations of operation definition files (when the backup is of an SQL Server
database)
In this example, the virtual server (server name: VServer_C) is running on the database server A
(server name: DBServer_A) and the database server B (server name: DBServer_B), which make
up a cluster.
The SQL Server instance INSTANCE_1 exists on the databases A and B, and the virtual server C has
been defined as a cluster resource.
In this example, the operation definition file for the instance INSTANCE_1 is located on the database
server A, the database server B, and the backup server (server name: BKServer) respectively.
Format of operation definition files
An operation definition file is created, for each operation ID that uniquely identifies the processing
target, with a name in the following format:
Application-Agent-installation-directory\script\conf\_operation-ID.dat
The sample file for the operation definition file is stored in the following location:
Application-Agent-installation-folder\script\sample
The following table shows the entries of an operation definition file, the contents of them, and the
maximum value length (in bytes). Specifying the entries is always required.
