You must create four HORCM configuration definition files on the host for your GAD environment:

  • One that describes the primary storage system and P-VOLs
  • One that describes the secondary storage system and S-VOLs
  • One for operating the virtual storage machine (SN: 81111) on the primary storage system
  • One for operating the virtual storage machine (SN: 81111) on the secondary storage system

For details about creating CCI configuration definition files, see the Command Control Interface Installation and Configuration Guide. For details about where the configuration definition files are stored, see the Command Control Interface User and Reference Guide.

The configuration definition files for the examples follow. The examples show files on a Windows host.

When you specify a command device for HORCM_CMD, adding the serial number of the storage system and the LDEV number as shown is recommended.
