Verifying the configuration of the IBM Storage Protect server for PowerHA

When you configure the IBM Storage Protect server to use PowerHA®, you must verify the configuration.

About this task

When you use PowerHA, all database, log, storage, and instance directories must be on shared disks that are configured to fail over by PowerHA.

Procedure

To identify the directories that are on shared disk, complete the following steps:

  1. Log on as the instance user.
  2. Run the /opt/tivoli/tsm/server/bin/dsmclustfs script.
  3. Examine the file systems that are reported by the script and verify that they are on shared disks.
    The following example script shows the type of information that you must review:
    > su - tsminst1
    $ /opt/tivoli/tsm/server/bin/dsmclustfs
