Hello David, I reused my existing Windows and Linux datamovers for the proxy mount nodes. For the Windows box, I had to install the iSCSI service from the Windows server manager and then I used the configuration wizard on the datamover GUI to do the config.
For the Linux box, auto config is not available, so there is a document in the 7.1.2 infocenter that details what's required to set up the Linux mount node. It's not much work. So I now have two CAD services/daemons running on each of my datamover nodes. One for the datamover, one for the proxy node. __________________________ Matthew McGeary Technical Specialist - Infrastructure PotashCorp T: (306) 933-8921 www.potashcorp.com From: David Ehresman <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Date: 06/19/2015 09:52 AM Subject: [ADSM-L] TSM VE 7.1.2 Mount Proxy Pairs Sent by: "ADSM: Dist Stor Manager" <[email protected]> The 7.1.2 doc indicates I need Proxy Pairs for VE mount and instant restore. But I can't find the doc that tells me how to set them up. I appear to need a Windows and a Linux server. Do they have to be dedicated? Can I/should I use a data mover as one of the proxies? Do I need to install anything on the proxy servers? Has anyone set these up and willing to offer some advice? David
