operation-ID

.

Temporary files created during execution of the extended command:

•

Backup ID record file

•

Backup information file

•

SQL Server's metafile (When the backup is of an SQL Server database)

Checking the copy-group list file

Certain extended commands allow you to specify a copy-group list file as an option value. A copy-group
list file is a file that contains a list of multiple copy groups. When you specify a copy-group list file as
an option value, before you start actual operations using the extended command, you need to execute
the extended command

EX_DRM_CG_DEF_CHECK

to determine whether the copy-group list file has

been set up correctly.

For information on what is checked in a copy-group list file, see the description on the

EX_DRM_CG_DEF_CHECK

command in the manual HP P9000 Replication Manager Software

Application Agent CLI Reference Guide.

For information on how to create a copy-group list file, see “

Creating a copy-group list file

” on page 162.

Checking the FTP service (if you are going to back up to tape)

Before extended commands can be executed for backup to a tape, settings for inter-server file transfer
must be specified.

Make sure that the following operations are possible when the FTP service is active.

•

Log on to the FTP server

•

File transmission and reception using FTP for inter-file servers or between the database server and
backup server

Make sure that inter-server FTP transmission and reception is possible between the directories indicated
in the table below.
