Important general configuration notes
The following notes will help ensure a successful configuration:
• Production and recovery servers must be in the same Ethernet domain
so that the DCOM communication process works between servers.
• On the Command View XP workstation, set NIC binding so the LAN
connecting the production and recovery servers and the Command
View XP workstation has priority (listed first). Reboot the CV server.
• Administrator privileges are required for all devices and software. If
you do not have administrator privileges, the software and hardware
will not communicate properly. Windows Authentication is used with
FRS to allow applications to share the Windows user name and
password.
• When configuring the array for HWP and FRS you must create a host
group specifically named SVOL and containing recovery LUNs.
(There must be only one SVOL host group on the array.) This host
group should not have any host paths to it.
• Production and recovery volumes must be the same type and size.
There must be at least as many recovery volumes as production
volumes.
• A command device LUN of 36 MB must be defined for each server
running HWP. This LUN cannot be used to store data.
• Port Security must be ON.
