If you no longer want to run file restore operations, you can remove the file restore
feature by updating a configuration file. If you uninstall Data Protection for Microsoft Hyper-V, you must update the
same configuration file to remove the file restore feature.
About this task
To remove the services that are related to the file restore feature, you must update the
frConfig.props file and remove the services that are related to the mount proxy
nodes.
Procedure
Complete the following steps on the Hyper-V host or cluster:
- Manually edit the
C:\IBM\SpectrumProtect\webserver\usr\servers\veProfile\tsmVmGUI\frConfig.props
file by changing the following option:
enable_filerestore=true
Change the option as
shown:enable_filerestore=false
- Open the Services control panel in the Windows operating system and remove the services that are related to the mount proxy node. Typically, the services are called TSM CAD -
hostname_HV_MP_platform and TSM Agent -
hostname_HV_MP_platform.
- Remove the mount proxy nodes on the IBM Spectrum Protect™
server with the REMOVE
NODE command.
Results
The file restore feature is removed from the Hyper-V host or cluster. You do not have to
restart the
IBM Spectrum Protect for Virtual Environments Derby Database or
IBM
Spectrum Protect Web Server services.
What to do next
