We run OC on a separate LPAR and mirror the luns for the LPAR to the DR site. This gives us two things...
1. In a DR scenario, you can quickly bring up the whole OC machine. 2. When doing code upgrades, you can upgrade OC separate from the TSM servers. --------------------------------------------------- David Nixon Storage Engineer II Technology Services Group Carilion Clinic 451 Kimball Ave. Roanoke, VA 24015 Phone: 540-224-3903 cdni...@carilionclinic.org Our mission: Improve the health of the communities we serve. ________________________________________ From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU] on behalf of Rick Adamson [rickadam...@segrocers.com] Sent: Thursday, May 26, 2016 10:11 AM To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: [ADSM-L] DR test and SP 7 Operations Center Didn't find any discussion or documentation on this subject so I'm hoping for feedback/suggestions. Recently implemented a two-site installation of SP 7.1.5 using container storage pools and node replication. Both the source and target servers are VM's running on Windows 2012. There are roughly 950 clients, all AIX 7.1, using BA client level 7.1.3 I have an upcoming DR test and began thinking about the Operations Center??? The OC is installed on my source server and has become an integral tool for my operators, so if it's not available for the test certainly someone will complain. The DR simulation takes place over 3 days and we will obviously be isolated from the production data center, including the source server and ultimately the Operations Center. My question is; how can I, or is it possible, to make the OC available in the test environment? I would think that IBM has thought this through but I didn't find any documented direction. Thoughts?
