You can configure the IBM Storage Protect server for AIX® clustered environments by using IBM® PowerHA® SystemMirror® for AIX.

Installing and configuring the PowerHA cluster
You might experience processing errors if your IBM PowerHA SystemMirror for AIX installation and configuration are not done correctly.
Configuring IBM Storage Protect server on the primary node for PowerHA
You can configure an IBM Storage Protect server instance on the primary node.
Configuring IBM Storage Protect server on a secondary node for PowerHA with a shared Db2 instance
If the IBM Db2 instance directory is shared between the nodes in the PowerHA cluster, you do not have to create a Db2 instance on the secondary node. You do not run the dsmicfgx wizard.
Configuring IBM Storage Protect server on a secondary node for PowerHA with a separate Db2 instance
You must create an IBM Db2 instance on each secondary node if the Db2 instance directory, /home/tsminst1/sqllib, is not shared between the nodes in the PowerHA cluster.
Disabling Db2 fault monitor facilities
If an IBM Storage Protect server in your clustered environment is running on an IBM AIX system, you must turn off IBM Db2 fault monitor facilities.
