how to integrate with protection manager local backup only policy

[pascalc]

I have AIX luns provisionned by snapdrive with an AIX JFS2 on them.

I want to take snapshots of them using snapdrive, schedule it with snapcreator and have this registered on protection manager.

I have created a snapcreator script calling snapdrive snap create... on AIX and installed the snapcreator agent there too

From snapcreator I have verified I can call and make it eecute the snapshot using this script.

Now I want to integrate with protection manager. So I put in my SC config the following lines :

NTAP_PM_UPDATE=Y

NTAP_DFM_DATA_SET=fas3140b:snapcreator_testthin/testthin

NTAP_PM_RUN_BACKUP=N

Q1:

How do I create the dataset snapcreator_testthin  outside of the SC gui ?

The pm dataset creation is only proposed at the sc profile creation time, not on profile updates.

Q2:

If I have created the PM dataset through SC the first time, and use the preceeding configuration lines, I see no PM updates in PM for this dataset.

In the log I can only see :

I have set up a PM protection policy of  "local backup only" to the dataset, with a schedule including hourly,daily, monthly frequency.

After SC snapshot, the dataset still remains with protection status "uninitialized"

Changing NTAP_PM_RUN_BACKUP=N to Y   does not change anything.

Is it possible to have this kind of snapshot registered in PM ? and how ?

Hi

Q1: You can create SC dataset outside of GUI w/the following command: snapcreator --profile <profile> --action pmsetup

Q2: This configuration should work. The issue seems to be that the dataset in PM is blank so SC is not finding any members. Make sure you add volumes or qtrees to dataset in PM, SC does not do this for you. Also you need to set a protection policy to dataset in PM, make sure that is done.

There is a demo I did using db2 and PM a while back, it is a video on SC community page called db2 dr demo, I would check that out 🙂

Regards,

Keith

Q1: I get the following error when doing trying the pmsetup on a profile not having the PM dataset created ...

Here is the debug log when snapcreator schedules a snapshot using the testthin profile :

[ktenzer · Accepted solution]

The reason you are getting an error is that OM_PORT=8443 is wrong. That is the https admin port we use the management port. Change it to OM_PORT=8488 and it should work for TRANSPORT=HTTPS. If TRANSPORT=HTTP then OM_PORT=8088.

Let us know if this works

Thank you Keith, this was the right answer. It works perfectly now.  I hesitated on what OM_PORT to use from OM, maybe it could help to indicate where users can find the port number, since OM uses several ports.
