HP StorageWorks Storage Mirroring Application Manager user’s guide 89
9 Enabling Protection for a Server
Based on the current protection status, the Enable/Disable Protection button (on both the Setup and Monitor tabs)
and menu options will be updated to display the available actions. If the Application Manager is not in a state
that will allow protection to be enabled, the Enable/Disable Protection button and menu option will be grayed
out (disabled).
After monitoring has been enabled for a source/target pair, you can view the status of the monitored
connection on the
Monitor tab.
You can click the
Show/Hide button to display or hide details about the protected pair.
For details about changing the units used to display bytes remaining in the mirror and queues, see ”Changing
Storage Mirroring Application Manager preferences” on page 12.
Enable protection
Click Enable Protection, or select Actions, Enable Protection. If you have not already performed a validation check,
if you have changed the domain, source, target, or configuration parameters, or if you have disabled the
connection, you will be prompted to run a validation check at this time. The Protection Status field will display
the current status of the connection. When the initial mirror has completed, the Protection Status will change to
“Protected” and, if you have not manually un-selected “Failover Enabled”, the Monitoring Status will change to
“Enabled”.
A source server can have a “Protected” status only if the source is currently connected to a target and an
Application Manager-generated replication set exists (named
xdag01_<target server name> for
Exchange and clusters being protected by a like-named Exchange cluster,
sqldag01_<target server
name>
for SQL, or FilePrint_<target server name> for file servers). While there may be other Storage
Mirroring connections between the selected source and target, Application Manager only recognizes
connections that it has created.
