Assigning the System Migration application group to a storage set

If you need the system to maintain index data in archive storage, you must assign the System Migration application group to a storage set that identifies a client node in Tivoli® Storage Manager.

About this task

You must register the client node in a Tivoli Storage Manager policy domain that maintains data indefinitely. When you define the storage set, the Logon Name and Password of the primary storage node must be identical to the client node and password in Tivoli Storage Manager. Individual chapters for each platform provide details about defining storage devices and policy domains to support Content Manager OnDemand and show how to register a client node in Tivoli Storage Manager.

After you define the storage set, you must update the System Migration application group and assign it to the storage set. After assigning the application group to the storage set and restarting the system, the system automatically migrates index data to archive storage, whenever migration processing (the ARSMAINT program) runs.

Procedure

Complete the following steps to assign the System Migration application group to a storage set:

  1. Start the OnDemand Administrator client.
  2. Log on to the server with a userid that has system administrator authority. (The built-in userid admin has system administrator authority.)
  3. Click Application Groups.
  4. Point to the System Migration application group and right mouse click.
  5. From the pop-up menu, select Update to open the Update an Application Group window.
  6. Click the Storage Management tab.
  7. In the Storage Set Name list, select the name of the storage set.
    The storage set that you select should identify a client node in a Tivoli Storage Manager policy domain that maintains data indefinitely.
