IBM DR550 manual Changing TSM Hacmpadm password

IBM System Storage DR550 Version 3.0 ------ 17 March 2006 Page 103

A test that you will perform, with the help of the Support Center, is to manually fail a non-configured drive in the DS4100 Storage Server using the DS4000 Storage Manager client. If all of the drives are configured (DR550 has all drives configured), you can turn off a redundant power supply in the DS4100 Storage Server or EXP100 expansion enclosure. When the drive fails or the power supply is turned off, a Service Alert is sent to the IBM e-mail address that you specified.

NOTE: Do not turn off the power supply if this is the only one that is powered on in your storage server or expansion enclosure. Turning off the power supply is the preferred test because it allows the testing of the DS4000 Storage Server Event Monitor service. This service monitors the DS4100 Storage Server for alerts without needing to have the DS4000 Storage Manager client running in the root user session.

Changing TSM HACMPADM password

The TSM HACMPADM password is currently set to never to expire. This login is created just to use for HACMP cluster stop services and not meant to use as an admin account. It has operator authority. You can change the password, perhaps in accordance with your site security guidelines. If you make a change to the password, the following script (stopserver), which is located in the /user/bin directory on both P5 520 servers, should be updated as well, as we have set HACMPADM password. Please review the red (bold) comments and the area that requires the new password.
