Configuring primary and recovery packages as modular packages using 3PAR Remote Copy

When using HP 3PAR Remote Copy in Continentalclusters, the primary and recovery packages must be created using the dts/cc3parrc module. To use this module, Metrocluster with 3PAR Remote Copy must be installed on all nodes in the Continentalclusters.

To configure primary and recovery packages in Continentalclusters when using 3PAR Remote Copy

:

1.Run the following command to create a modular primary or recovery package configuration file using the Continentalclusters module dts/cc3parrc.

# cmmakepkg –m dts/cc3parrc pkgName.config

2.Edit the following attributes in the pkgName.config file:

DTS_PKG_DIR

DC1_NODE_LIST

DC2_NODE_LIST

DC1_STORAGE_SYSTEM_NAME

DC2_STORAGE_SYSTEM_NAME

DC1_STORAGE_SYSTEM_USER

DC2_STORAGE_SYSTEM_USER

DC1_RC_VOLUME_GROUP

DC2_RC_VOLUME_GROUP

DC1_RC_TARGET_FOR_DC2

DC2_RC_TARGET_FOR_DC1

RESYNC_WAIT_TIMEOUT

AUTO_NONCURDATA

For more information on these attributes, see “Configuring Modular Packages” (page 322).

3.Validate the package configuration file.

# cmcheckconf -P pkgName.config

4.Apply the package configuration file.

# cmapplyconf -P pkgName.config

NOTE: If the value of any parameter needs to be changed, then edit this package configuration file and re-apply it.

Configuring Continentalclusters Data Sender and Data Receiver Packages as Modular Packages

Data sender and data receiver packages are configured in Continentalclusters recovery groups using custom integration with logical replication technologies. These packages can be configured using the HP Serviceguard modules. No special Continentalclusters modules are required to configure these packages as modular packages.

Configuring Continentalclusters Rehearsal packages as Modular Packages

With Continentalclusters version A.08.00, packages specified as rehearsal packages in recovery groups can be configured as modular packages. These packages normally use all the modules that are used to create the recovery package. However, when using any of the pre-integrated physical replication solutions, the replication technology specific Continentalclusters module must not be included.
