chapter describes the contents of the software CDs and downloads and explains the prerequisites for installing HP Replication Solutions Manager. Kit or download contents When you obtain HP Replication Solutions Manager (you can order the software in a kit or download it free from the Web), you receive the following: · Server software · Host agent software · RSM integrator HP Replication Solutions Manager server software HP Replication Solutions
Manager (the replication manager) is a graphical and command line user interface for managing replication on HP storage arrays. See HP StorageWorks Replication Solutions Manager administrator guide for a description of the software features. HP Replication Solutions Manager host agent software The replication manager host agent software is installed on a supported host server. The host agent software facilitates communication between the management
server and the host server. There is no user interface associated with the host agent software.
When you install the host agent software, you also install the HP Replication Solutions Manager CLUI client. The CLUI client is a command line utility that enables you to run replication manager commands from the host server. HP Replication Solutions Manager integrator Install the HP Replication Solutions Manager integrator on the management server to register the replication manager with Systems Insight Manager or System Management homepage. When
you install this integrator, it creates a link on either Systems Insight Manager or System Management homepage to monitor the management server. Downloading the software To download the software free from the Web: 1. Go to the HP StorageWorks Continuous Access EVA website: (You can use this
site whether you use HP Continuous Access EVA or not.) http://h18006.www1.hp.com/products/storage/software/conaccesseva/index. html 2. Click Software & drivers. 3. Download the replication manager server software. Only one download is required. 4. If you have Windows hosts, download the replication manager host agent software for Windows.

replication manager host agent software for UNIX/Linux.
Only one download is required. HP StorageWorks Replication Solutions Manager installation guide 1 1 Simulation mode You can perform any replication manager function in simulation mode that you can perform in a production environment, with the following restrictions: · Only the Windows host agent is simulated. Other host platforms are not available for simulation. · The simulated host volumes can have only one virtual disk under them. In a production
environment, a host volume can comprise multiple virtual disks.
Simulation mode enables you to use all replication manager features without using production data and resources. This functionality is built into the replication manager and does not require separate installation or activation. If you plan to use simulation mode, HP recommends that you: · Install the replication manager on a Windows server that: · Does not have HP Command View EVA installed on it. · Is running a suppo on the browsing client. If you are
running HP Replication Solutions Manager 3.
0 or later, you can download and install JRE from the Java website www.java.sun.com.

the host agent software. An installation is required on every host that interacts with the replication manager.
Operating system requirements This section describes the operating system-specific requirements for installing the replication manager host agent. HP OpenVMS on Alpha servers The operating system for HP OpenVMS on Alpha servers must be 8.3, with a TCP/IP minimum version of 5.69. The host agent
software CD includes two SNIA libraries. · HBA_VMS.EXE · LIBHBAAPI.EXE To ensure that the host agent software on the HP OpenVMS (Alpha) host works properly, the latest versions of both libraries are required inSYS$LIBRARY. Compare the versions of the libraries on the CD against those listed in
SYS$LIBRARY. If the versions on the CD are later, copy the SNIA libraries from the CD to SYS$LIBRARY, and then restart the host agent. HP OpenVMS on Alpha and Integrity servers The operating system for HP OpenVMS must be 8.3, with a TCP/IP minimum version of 5.69. OpenVMS HA Installer for both Alpha and Integrity platforms does not check for all the external patch dependencies. The complete list of dependencies can be found in the
HP StorageWorks Replication Solutions Manager 4.0 release notes. Patches are available for download at http://www.itrc.hp.com HP Tru64 UNIX Before installing the replication manager host agent on an HP Tru64 UNIX host, ensure that: · CXX 7.
1 runtime libraries are installed on the HP Tru64 UNIX host. Download the libraries from ftp://ftp.compaq.com/pub/products/C-CXX/tru64/cxx/CXXREDIST710.tar.
You can install the libraries before or after installing the replication host agent, but they must be installed before you start the replication manager. · the environment variable BIN_SH is set to xpg4: BIN_SH=xpg4; export BIN_SH Linux Before installing the replication manager host agent on a Linux host, ensure that you have: · Installed the QLogic failover driver. · Disabled LDAP authentication. See your Linux documentation for more information. HP StorageWorks Replication Solutions Manager installation guide 21 Sun Solaris Ensure that you install the appropriate SNIA libraries on the Solaris host;
otherwise, incorrect HBA information is reported in the replication manager HBA/ports tab of the Enabled Host properties window.
This condition does not affect HBA operation, only the information reported to the replication manager. The following SNIA libraries are required: · For JNI and Sun native HBAs, install the JNI SNIA Fibre Channel HBA library. The package name is JNIsnia. · For QLogic HBAs, install the QLogic SDM library. The package name is QLSDMLIB. The SNIA libraries are included with HP Secure Path for Sun Solaris, but are not installed by default. You can install the SNIA libraries before or after installing the replication manager host agent. Conflict between cfgadm utility and SNIA libraries There is a conflict between the
cfgadm utility and the SNIA libraries that are distributed with HP Secure Path 3.0d on Solaris 10, which prevents the Solaris 10 host from working properly. To resolve this conflict, install the 1 19974 patch on the Solaris 10 host before installing the SNIA libraries.
Windows Before installing the host agent software on a Windows host, you must: · Have system administrator authority on the server on which you want to install the host agent software. · Install the appropriate SNIA libraries for Windows.

PCSI;1 (OpenVMS on Alpha servers) · HP-I64VMS-RSMHA-V0400--1.PCSI;1 (OpenVMS on Integrity servers) To change any setting or repair a file, you must uninstall, then reinstall the host agent. For Windows hosts, use Add/Remove Programs to remove the software. To remove the host agent software from a
UNIX or Linux host: 1. Open a command window and navigate to the _uninst directory.
For example, the default directory is: opt/Hewlett-Packard/RSMHostSW/_uninst/ 2. Enter the following command: ./uninstall.bin Alternatively, open a command window and enter the following command to start the software removal: ./uninstall.bin -console To remove the host agent software from an HP
OpenVMS host, open a command window and enter the following command: product remove rsmha After removing the host agent software, HP strongly recommends that you reboot the server to ensure a proper clean-up of the Replication Server Manager Server application files. Failure to reboot after removing the server software may affect subsequent installs. CAUTION: If HP Replication Solutions Manager is running, the management server requires a
reboot to complete the removal.

Insufficient space in the temporary directory When
you install HP Replication Solutions Manager, the contents of the .
jar file are extracted to a temporary directory. If there is insufficient space in the directory, an error message may appear. If you do not know whether the temporary directory has sufficient space to complete the installation, you can specify an alternate directory: 1. Open a command window. 2. Enter the following command: -is:tempdir <directory> The value directory is the name of the alternate directory (for example, -is:tempdir C:\My Documents\temp).
User interface does not open The user interface does not open after starting the software. This can occur if Terminal Services is not configured for administrator mode. Using Add/Remove Programs, remove the software from the management server and install the software again. See "Installing the
software" on page 17 for instructions.
No login server error message This error message may appear due to an invalid or unavailable server IP address. Verify the server IP address in your browser. Verify that the services are running on the management server.

SOFTWARE user guide
Storage system, virtual array, and storage array are other names for an EVA. See also virtual disk. An operation that reverses replication direction so that the destination becomes the source and the source becomes the destination.
Failovers can be planned or unplanned and can occur between DR groups, managed sets, fabrics or paths, and array controllers. A server that runs customer applications such as file and print services. HP Command View EVA and HP Replication Solutions Manager can be used on a general-purpose server in limited configurations. A computer that runs user applications and uses (or potentially uses) one or more virtual disks that are created and presented by the array controller. A repeatable custom script that automates replication tasks. A job can be simple (for example, create a DR group) or complex (for example,
perform cascaded replication). Jobs can be run from the GUI, from the command line, from batch files, or by a scheduler. A server where HP StorageWorks Enterprise Virtual Array (EVA) management software is installed, including HP Command View EVA and HP Replication Solutions Manager, if used. A dedicated management server runs EVA management software exclusively. Other management servers are general purpose servers, HP ProLiant Storage
Server (NAS) models, and the Storage Management Appliance.
When there are multiple management servers in a SAN, two active instances of HP Command View EVA are allowed, but each array will only be managed by one instance. The active management server actively manages the array, while the standby management server takes control of the array if there is a failure
on the active management server. There is only one active management server at a time for any given management zone in a SAN. HP OpenView Storage Management Appliance, an HP hardware-software product designed to run SAN management applications such as HP Command View EVA and HP
Replication Solutions Manager.

The HP Enterprise Virtual Array consists of one or more storage systems. See also virtual disk. Referenced in many Edit panels of verbs in the Jobs Creation Interface. Synonymous with disk array and storage system, a group of disks in one or more disk enclosures combined
with control software that presents disk storage capacity as one or more virtual disks. See also .
