3 Detailed Reservoir configuration

There are a number of steps in configuring the UPSTREAM Reservoir in preparation for your first backup:

  • If you are using tape, configure UPSTREAM for your tape environment (if you are not configuring for tape, continue to the next bullet):
  • Configure UPSTREAM for the UPSTREAM Tape Manager access if you are using UPSTREAM’s built-in library manager (described below).
  • Configure UPSTREAM Reservoir for ACSLS if you are using StorageTek’s ACSLS (section 3.2 on page 3-4)
  • Configure UPSTREAM Reservoir for IBM TotalStorage 3494 Tape Libraries (section 3.3 on page 3-6)
  • Configure UPSTREAM Reservoir Overall parameters (section 3.5 on page 3-8)
  • Start UPSTREAM Reservoir (section 3.6 on page 3-8)
  • Run maintenance to have Reservoir initialize itself.
  • Configure UPSTREAM Reservoir Backup Profile specific parameters (section 3.7 on page 3-8)

 

Note

Any time you make a change in the hardware environment of the Reservoir, after making all necessary configuration changes, you should restart the Reservoir so that the Reservoir “parent” program can read the changes.
