Hi,

Has any one out there configured a TDP for SAP in a HACMP environment?

This is the configuration I will try and keep it simple.

I have two TSM clients in a HACMP cluster one on CPU "Production" and the
other on CPU "Standby" and Between the two I have a large SAP database
which will fall over between cpu Production and CPU Standby.

I have the TSM clients software configured so that it falls over OK, using
a new Options file and the security.

Now for the question:

I need to backup local files on both the Production CPU and the Standby CPU
plus the SAP database. Do I need to configure three TSM clients One on each
CPU and one on the CLUSTER where the SAP database resides?
Or is there a trick where I can use the SAP options file to redirect the
SAP date to the client which is up ether CPU production or CPU standby?

I have read the red book on HACMP chapter 9 "HACMP and TSM" but it dose not
cover this topic

Any help would be appreciated
