HP P9000 Replication Manager Software 7.2 Configuration Guide

3. After installation of HP StorageWorks P9000 for Business Continuity Manager Software or P9000
mainframe agent, you must specify the information required for linking with Replication Manager.
For HP StorageWorks P9000 for Business Continuity Manager Software, you must configure
BCM as follows:
• Allocate a dataset for a disk configuration definition file.
• Allocate a dataset for a copy group definition file.
• Set a route list (when using a remote command device).
• Set the BCM Agent initialization parameters (Gen'ed DAD ID, Non Gen'ed DAD ID, and
Remote DAD ID, and a prefix corresponding to each DAD ID).
• For the MODE initialization parameter of BCM Agent, specify EDIT (the initial value is MON-
ITOR). This allows the management of copy groups from Replication Manager. (If a function
that updates a definition or changes a status is used when the startup mode is MONITOR,
an YKY727E error occurs in BCM Agent.)
• The LOCK initialization parameter can also be set to manage conflicts between operations
performed by Replication Manager and HP StorageWorks P9000 for Business Continuity
Manager Software.
NOTE:
If you want to use an IPv6 connection or HTTPS (SSL) communication between RepMgr and
BCM, you must set up the IBM HTTP Server (IHS).
For complete information, see the HP P9000 for Business Continuity Manager Software Installation
Guide and the HP P9000 for Business Continuity Manager Software User Guide, which include
respective chapters on setting up and using the BCM with Replication Manager.
For P9000 mainframe agent, refer to the HP P9000 Command View Advanced Edition Software
Mainframe Agent Installation and Configuration Guide.
