Example of SERVER statement with alternate servers

Edit online

Data Protection for SAP profile is used in certain disaster recovery configurations.

This example assumes the following configuration for two servers a and b:
  • Two IBM Storage Protect™ servers:
    • server_a uses TCP/IP address xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx and uses four tape drives (MAX_SESSIONS 4)
    • server_b uses TCP/IP address yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy and uses four tape drives (MAX_SESSIONS 4)
  • An SAP database server that is connected to this FDDI network.
  • Normal backups are processed with server a, which is local to the SAP database server.
  • A disaster recovery backup is stored on remote server b every Friday.
The following is an example of the Data Protection for SAP profile that is used in this disaster recovery configuration: 
 
MAX_SESSIONS     4        # 4 tape drives
