About configuration definition file formats

New configuration definition files (HORCM configuration files) can be generated in either
HORCM_LDEV format or HORCM_DEV format. Replication Manager allows you to specify the format
for new configuration definition files using the

server.agent.rm.pairDefinitionForm

and

server.agent.rm.cuLdevForm

properties in the Device Manager agent

server.properties

file. (For detailed property file descriptions, see the HP P9000 Command View Advanced Edition
Suite Software Administrator Guide
.)

By default, new configuration definition files are generated in the HORCM_DEV format. To change
the default format to HORCM_LDEV, set the value of

server.agent.rm.pairDefinitionForm

to

HORCM_LDEV

.

To maintain consistency of configuration definition file formats, Replication Manager does not allow
creation of configuration definition files with mixed formats. However, Replication Manager supports
pre-existing configuration definition files that have mixed formats. When new copy pairs are added
to an existing copy group, Replication Manager confirms the existing file format of the configuration
definition file and applies the same format for the new copy pairs. If new copy pairs are added to a
pre-existing configuration definition file that has mixed formats (HORCM_LDEV and HORCM_DEV
formats), Replication Manager determines the format for the new copy pairs using the

server.agent.rm.pairDefinitionForm

property in the Device Manager agent

server.properties

file.

Default location of configuration definition files

The default location of configuration definition files is determined as follows:

In Windows: The system folder indicated by the

%WINDIR%

environment variable.

In UNIX: the

/etc

directory.

To change the folder or directory, edit the value of the

server.agent.rm.horcmSource

property

of the

server.properties

file.

If you manage the replica (create or restore) in Windows, you must place the configuration definition
file in the Windows system folder.

If you create a copy pair using Remote Web Console or other operation management software, no
configuration definition file exists. Therefore, no configuration definition information is displayed in
the Pair Configurations view.
