Example: Configure library sharing for 3494 libraries

Use the sample procedure to set up a 3494 library sharing environment.

About this task

In this example, a library manager server named 3494MGR and a library client named 3494CLI are configured. To help clarify where each step is performed, the commands are preceded by the server name from which the command is issued. Most commands are issued from the library client.

Procedure

To set up 3494MGR as the library manager server, define a shared 3494 library named 3494SAN. For example:
```
3494mgr> define library 3494san libtype=349x shared=yes
```
Then complete the rest of the steps as described in Example: Configure a 3494 library with a single drive device type to configure the library.

Define 3494MGR as the library manager server by issuing the DEFINE SERVER command.

3494cli> define server 3494mgr serverpassword=secret hladdress=9.115.3.45 
 lladdress=1580 crossdefine=yes

Define the shared library 3494SAN, and identify the library manager:
Note: Ensure that the library name agrees with the library name on the library manager.
```
3494cli> define library 3494san libtype=shared primarylibmanager=3494mgr
```

Define paths from the library manager, 3494MGR, to two drives in the shared library by issuing the DEFINE PATH command.

3494mgr> define path client drivea srctype=server desttype=drive 
 library=3494san device=/dev/rmt0
3494mgr> define path client driveb srctype=server desttype=drive 
 library=3494san device=/dev/rmt1

3494mgr> define path client drivea srctype=server desttype=drive 
 library=3494san device=/dev/rmt/0m
3494mgr> define path client driveb srctype=server desttype=drive 
 library=3494san device=/dev/rmt/1m

3494mgr> define path client drivea srctype=server desttype=drive 
 library=3494san device=/dev/IBMtape0
3494mgr> define path client driveb srctype=server desttype=drive 
 library=3494san device=/dev/IBMtape1

3494mgr> define path client drivea srctype=server desttype=drive 
 library=3494san device=/dev/rmt/4mt
3494mgr> define path client driveb srctype=server desttype=drive 
 library=3494san device=/dev/rmt/5mt

Define the device classes that are associated with the shared library.
```
3494cli> define devclass 3494_class library=3494san devtype=3590
```
Define a storage pool named BACKTAPE that will use the shared library.
```
3494cli> define stgpool backtape 3494_class maxscratch=50
```

What to do next

Repeat this procedure to define additional servers as library clients.
