Integrations with Other Applications

Veritas Cluster Integration

1.Install the Data Protector Disk Agent on each system with the local disk you want to back up.

2.Configure a backup of the local system in the cluster and define the local disks you want to back up.

Backing Up Shared Disks

A shared disk can only be backed up as a local disk, as described above. It can however be backed up from any of the cluster nodes between which it is shared.

For example, to back up a disk shared between two nodes:

1.Install the Data Protector Disk Agent on each system that shares the disk.

2.Define a backup specification for the disk as a “local disk” on each system.

3.If you want to safeguard the backup of the shared disk further, you could create a post-exec within each backup specification that checks for errors and starts a backup on the other system, if the first fails.
