a.

Define

a

shared

ACSLS,

SCSI,

or

3494

library

using

the

SHARED=YES

option.

b.

Define

paths

to

the

library

using

the

DEFINE

PATH

command

on

the

server.

c.

Define

drives

that

are

associated

with

the

library.

d.

Define

paths

to

the

drives

using

the

DEFINE

PATH

command

on

the

server.

e.

Define

the

device

class.

f.

Define

the

storage

pool.

When

you

are

connecting

the

storage

agent

to

the

library

client,

complete

Step

a

through

Step

e

above

on

the

library

manager,

and

then

complete

the

following

steps

on

the

library

client:

a.

Define

a

shared

ACSLS,

SCSI,

or

3494

library

using

a

library

type

of

shared

(LIBTYPE=SHARED).

b.

Define

the

device

class.

c.

Define

the

storage

pool.

Disk

Device

Configure

server-to-server

communication

and

define

a

device

class

of

DEVTYPE=FILE

and

SHARED=YES.

Tivoli

Storage

Manager

automatically

defines

a

new

FILE

library

and

also

defines

drives

corresponding

to

the

mount

limit

for

the

FILE

device

class.

The

FILE

library

name

is

the

same

as

the

device

class

name.

Each

drive

uses

the

library

name

with

a

numeric

suffix.

If

the

mount

limit

is

changed,

the

number

of

drives

also

changes.

Note:

Because

each

session

gets

exclusive

access

to

a

file

volume,

the

mount

limit

should

correspond

to

the

number

of

expected

concurrent

backups.

4.

Define

a

copy

group

with

its

destination

being

the

LAN-free

capable

storage

pool

(created

in

Step

3).

For

example:

define

copygroup

sandirect

sandirectpolicy

sandirectdefmft

type=backup

destination=<storage

pool

name

from

Step

3>

Then

activate

the

policy

set.

For

example:

activate

policyset

sandirect

sandirectpolicy

Notes:

a.

See

the

Administrator’s

Guide

for

details

about

changing

policy

for

clients

that

can

use

SAN

drives.

For

details

about

the

commands,

see

the

Administrator’s

Reference.

b.

If

you

decide

not

to

use

the

default

management

class

for

the

SAN

drives,

you

will

need

to

create

a

new

management

class.

Clients

that

want

to

use

the

SAN

drives

need

to

use

an

include

statement

to

bind

their

files

to

this

new

management

class.

See

the

Backup-Archive

Clients

Installation

and

User’s

Guide

for

details

about

the

include-exclude

list.

c.

Note

that

with

a

hierarchical

storage

management

(HSM)

client

configured

for

LAN-free

data

movement,

the

management

class

(not

the

copy

group)

is

set

to

a

LAN-free

capable

storage

pool.

5.

If

the

node

has

already

been

registered

and

configured

for

LAN-free

backups,

issue

the
