3 Configuring Recovery Manager

Configuring the SQL Database

When you configure the SQL database:

Use database files and transaction logs created on basic disks using the NTFS file system.

Recovery Manger for SQL Server does not support other types of disks.

Maintain a 1:1 relationship between databases and volumes.

Avoid adding more than one database plus its transaction log files to a volume.

Avoid adding files from a database to multiple volumes.

CAUTION:

Be sure to maintain a single database:single volume relationship.

If you add multiple databases to one volume, backup and disaster recovery operations on one
database can result in conflicts between the databases in the volume.

Configuring Recovery Manager

Installation Location

By default, Recovery Manager installs in:

<system drive>:\Program Files\3PAR\RM\SQL

Search Path

After installation, you can instantly issue Recovery Manager CLI commands from any directory.
Although the Recovery Manager executable is installed in a fixed location that is specified during
installation, the location is automatically added to the Windows PATH environment variable.

Changing the Recovery Manager TCP/IP Port

By default, HP 3PAR Recovery Manager for SQL uses port 9932 for cross-server communication.
As long as port 9932 is available, no extra port configuration is necessary.

If port 9932 is not available or is occupied by another system process, you must change the
Recovery Manager TCP/IP port.
1.

Select an available port. The valid TCP/IP port range is 1024 to 65535.

2.

To set the desired port number, run the Recovery Manager CLI HpRmCli Sql portconfig
command.

For example, to change the port number to 9999, use: HpRmCli Sql portconfig -n
9999

CAUTION:

If you are changing ports from the backup server, be sure to change the Recovery

Manager ports on the production servers first. If you change the backup server port first, then
you cannot then access the production servers to change their ports.

3.

From the Windows Service console, restart the HP 3PAR Recovery Manager for SQL service.

4.

Repeat these steps for all production servers and the backup server.

NOTE:

Use the same TCP/IP port on all servers for Recovery Manager for SQL.
