characteristics. And the RAID storage system determines whether it is a Fast Snap pair or a Snapshot
pair based on the type of the pool to be used.

There are following sections in the configuration definition file:

HORCM_MON: Defines information about the local host.

HORCM_CMD: Defines information about the command (CMD) devices.

HORCM_DEV or HORCM_LDEV: Defines information about the copy pairs.

HORM_INST: Defines information about the remote host.

HORCM_LDEVG: Defines information about the device group.

A sample configuration definition file, HORCM_CONF (/HORCM/etc/horcm.conf), is included
with the RAID Manager software. This file should be used as the basis for creating your configuration
definition file(s). The system administrator should make a copy of the sample file, set the necessary
parameters in the copied file, and place the file in the proper directory.

The following table lists the parameters defined in the configuration file and specifies the default
value, type, and limit for each parameter. For details about parameters in the configuration file,
see the manual HP P9000 RAID Manager User Guide. See

Table 12 (page 41)

for detailed

descriptions of configuration definition files for sample RAID Manager configurations.
