Defining a computer running Linux or the UNIX system as a backup registry host

Use the following procedure to define a computer running Linux® or the UNIX® system as a backup registry host.
  1. Log on to the host. You must log on as root to have privileges to stop or start Rational® ClearCase®, or to create directories and files in the /var partition of most hosts.
  2. Stop Rational ClearCase.
  3. Edit the file /var/adm/rational/clearcase/config/rgy_hosts.conf. The first line of this file is the name of the host’s registry server. Add a second line that is the host name of the host itself.
  4. Restart Rational ClearCase.
The host becomes a backup registry host and begins running rgy_backup to back up the registry data on the primary registry host specified in the first line of the file /var/adm/rational/clearcase/config/rgy_hosts.conf.
