HP OpenView Storage Data Protector
Backup and Restore of HACMP Cluster 8
5.1.1 FileSystem Backup:
1. Install the Data Protector Disk Agent on all the nodes. (as described
above in section 3.0)
2. Import the cluster into the Data Protector Cell (as described above in
section 3.1) Now Data Protector can access the data in the cluster on a
cluster-wide basis.
3. For the procedure to create a backup specification, please refer to the
topic “Creating a Backup Specification” in the “Backup” chapter of the

described above in section 3.0)
2. If you have not already done so, import the virtual server into the Data
Protector Cell (as described above in section 3.1) Now Data Protector
can access the data in the cluster on a cluster-wide basis.
3. Backing up Informix Database would first involve configuring the Informix
Integration. For details of configuring and backing up Informix, please
refer to the “Integrating Informix and Data Protector” chapter of the “HP
OpenView Storage Data Protector Integration Guide for IBM
