Replication Solution Manager Help

tony montana_2 — Mon, 08 May 2006 07:10:11 GMT

Hi there

We have an EVA5000 in windows 2003. We want to use snapshots in our live environment and have a 2TB business copy license. We used to have business copy installed on our SMA but since a firmware upgrade to code V3028 we have not reinstalled it on the SMA.

My questions are:

Does Business copy still exist as a single product or is it now part of RSM?

How do we install RSM/business copy onto the SMA? Is it a simple process?

Do we need to purchase additional licenses for the use of RSM? We have a 2TB license for BC but will this suffice when using RSM?

I can't find any installation or setup info on RSM only day to day admin operations guide so any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

Many thanks

Tony

RSM is a GUI inteface to Business Copy and Continuous Access. No license is needed to install or use RSM and it is downloadable. You do however need the BC license and/or CA license to utilize those features. (which you have already). It is the single product you can use for control over BC/CA.

Installing RSM is a simple process. Grab the file from the HP website, and install it. It is NOT a SAN Applicane application so you install it in the regular fashion on a Windows Server.
