Use the following procedure to define a computer running Linux® or
the UNIX® system
as a backup registry host.
- 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.
- Stop Rational ClearCase.
- 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.
- 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.
