They advise this to so that the cluster dsm.opt will be available on the
other node when there is a failover.
My main problem with this is that you need to execute a failover to get
this all configured for the first time,
(To install the scheduler service on the failover node)
which isn't acceptable in my environment.

We keep everything in the baclient directory and just make sure the opt
files are exactly the same on both nodes.

Shawn

[ADSM-L] DSM.OPT file location for backing up cluster resources.






Hello,

I was reading this document about configure BA client for cluster
environment.

http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/tividd/td/TSMC/GC32-0788-02/en_US/HTML/ans60021.htm


1) For backing up cluster resources, the document recommends to.locate the
option file on one of the disk drives that are owned by the cluster group.

Question : When installing TDP for Exchange and to backup the virtual
Exchange server, I assume it is also advisable to place the dsm.opt file
in one of the disk drives owned by the cluster group. Is this correct?

Thanks
