HP P9000 Business Continuity Manager User Guide
Specifying the Business Continuity Manager Log output destination
Business Continuity Manager collects information about the following three types of operations:
• ISPF activity
• CLI command-execution parameters and results
• Business Continuity Manager execution log data, such as messages, some parameter
information, and time stamps
Business Continuity Manager can output execution log data to the BCM log.
HP recommends that the first thing you do when setting up Business Continuity Manager is specify
a location for this log, although this is optional.
For more information, see “Setting the Business Continuity Manager Log Output Destination”
(page 557).
Setting up Storage Systems
This section describes how to set up storage systems using Remote Web Console.
The required settings vary depending on which copy type is used. Table 24 (page 100) summarizes
the storage systems settings.
For details about how to specify a consistency group ID, see “Consistency groups” (page 23).
