HP Application Recovery Manager software Integration guide (March 2008)

Cluster-aware clients
• Configure SAP R/3 databases only on one cluster node, since the configuration
files reside on the Cell Manager.
UNIX: During the configuration, Application Recovery Manager creates a link to
the Application Recovery Manager splitint program on the currently active
node. On all the other nodes, do it manually. Run:
ln -s /opt/omni/lbin/ob2smbsplit \
/usr/sap/ORACLE_SID/sys/exe/run/splitint
Windows: During the configuration, Application Recovery Manager copies the
Application Recovery Manager ob2smbsplit.exe program from
AppRM_home\bin to the directory that stores the SAP backup tools and renames
ob2smbsplit.exe to splitint.exe. This is done only on the currently active
node. On the other node, do it manually.
• If you intend to use the Application Recovery Manager CLI, set the Application
Recovery Manager environment variable OB2BARHOSTNAME to the virtual server
name as follows:
Windows: set OB2BARHOSTNAME=virtual_server_name
UNIX: export OB2BARHOSTNAME=virtual_server_name
NOTE:
SAP recommends to install SAP backup utilites on all cluster nodes.
Configuring users
Configure or create the following users:
OS user account that is added to the following user groups:Oracle OS user
• UNIX: dba and sapsys
• Windows: ORA_DBA and ORA_SID_DBA local group
For example, user oraSID.
UNIX only: Ensure that this user is the owner of the filesystem or of
the raw logical volume on which the database is mounted. The
minimum permissions should be 740.
