File name
You can use alphanumeric characters to specify any name.

File storage location
This file can be stored in any location.
In a cluster environment, however, this file should be stored in a shared directory that can be ac-
cessed from both servers.

Contents of a file
Specify copy group names, following the rules listed below:
Write each copy group name from the leftmost column.
Copy group names are case-sensitive.
A line beginning with a number sign (

#

) is handled as a comment line.

Each copy group name must be specified on one line.

The following is an example of entries in a copy-group list file:

VG01,dev01

VG01,dev02

When creating a copy-group list file, see the RAID Manager configuration definition file
(

horcmn.conf

) to check the copy groups to be backed up in batch. If a backup catalog has already

been created, you can check this by executing the

drmfscat

,

drmsqlcat

, or

drmexgcat

command.

Creating a database list file or mount point directory list file

Certain command options require you to specify multiple mount point directories, files, databases,
storage groups, Information Stores, or other entities. You can create a definition file (a list file)
beforehand that contains the definitions of target entities such as files, and then assign this definition
file to the command option. In this way, you can specify multiple files, directories, databases, storage
groups, or Information Stores at one time.
