define stgpool apoolname adeviceclassname pooltype=primary

5.If you are using a shared ACSLS library manager, define a path from the storage agent to the library manager. For example:

define path storagnt libmgr1 srctype=server desttype=library

If you are using an ACSLS-managed external library, define a path from the storage agent to the external manager. Gresham EDT-DistribuTAPE is the external library manager interfacing with the ACSLS library software. The EDT executable is located in its default path /usr/lpp/dtelm/bin/elm For example:

define path storagnt stk-lib srctype=server desttype=library externalmanager=/usr/lpp/dtelm/bin/elm

For additional information about the DEFINE LIBRARY and DEFINE PATH commands, see the Administrator’s Reference.

6.Define a copy group with its destination being the LAN-free capable storage pool (created in Step 4). For example:

define copygroup sandirect sandirectpolicy sandirectdefmft type=backup destination=<storage pool name from Step 3>

Then activate the policy set. For example: activate policyset sandirect sandirectpolicy

Notes:

a.See the Administrator’s Guide for details about changing policy for clients that can use SAN drives. For details about the commands, see the Administrator’s Reference.

b.If you decide not to use the default management class for the SAN drives, you will need to create a new management class. Clients that want to use the SAN drives need to use an include statement to bind their files to this new management class. See the Backup-Archive Clients Installation and User’s Guide for details about the include-exclude list.

c.Note that with a hierarchical storage management (HSM) client configured for LAN-free data movement, the management class (not the copy group) is set to a LAN-free capable storage pool.

7.If the node has already been registered and configured for LAN-free backups, issue the following command to confirm the node settings are correct:

query node node_name format=detailed

You can issue the UPDATE NODE command to adjust settings for your node. If the node has not been registered and configured for LAN-free backups, register the node with the REGISTER NODE command. For more information, see the REGISTER NODE and UPDATE NODE commands in the Administrator’s Reference.

To help you tune the use of your LAN and SAN resources for LAN-free data movement, you can control the path that data transfers take for clients that have LAN-free data movement capability. For each client, you can select whether data read and write operations use:

v The LAN path only

v The LAN-free path only v Either path

Be aware that if the node belongs to a multi-threaded client and there are drives available, the MAXNUMMP parameter may restrict the number of
