Replservername
The replservername option specifies the name of the secondary server that the client connects to during a failover.
The replservername option begins a stanza in the client options file that contains connection information about the secondary server.
This option is set by the IBM Spectrum Protect server administrator for the client node. During the normal (non-failover) logon process, the option is sent to the client and is saved in the client options file.
Do not edit this option during normal operations.
Edit this option only during situations such as the following ones:
- The primary server is offline and the information for the secondary server is not in the options file.
- The secondary server information is out-of-date or incorrect.
Supported Clients
This option is valid for all clients.
Options File
This option is placed in the client-system options dsm.sys.
This option is placed in the client options file (dsm.opt).
