VCS with non-failover media server

[David_Zhang]

Pls give me some suggestions,thanks!

I used Netbackup 6.0 software and SAN environment.

I own one master server and two SAN media servers as nxnmsdb1 and nxnmsdb2. The two SAN media servers work with VCS which running Informix database.

Now I have installed two SAN media servers as stand-alone server without VCS failover.

I wanna use the Informix virtual name as database backup,but I faced following error information:

2007-6-2 2:00:00 - requesting resource NXNMSDB1-hcart3-robot-tld-0
2007-6-2 2:00:00 - requesting resource nxnbu-svr.NBU_CLIENT.MAXJOBS.NXNMSDB1
2007-6-2 2:00:00 - requesting resource nxnbu-svr.NBU_POLICY.MAXJOBS.NXNMSDB1-informix-database
2007-6-2 2:00:01 - awaiting resource NXNMSDB1-hcart3-robot-tld-0. Waiting for resources.
         Reason: Tape media server is not active, Media server: NXNMSDB1,
         Robot Type(Number): TLD(0), Media ID: N/A, Drive Name: N/A,
         Volume Pool: NXNMSDB-pool, Storage Unit: NXNMSDB1-hcart3-robot-tld-0, Drive Scan Host: N/A

So,I wanna know some answer as:

1.how can I config the SAN media server under VCS without failover?

2.how can I set the storage unit and use only one policy to backup the Informix database which runs any VCS node?

Bob,the two media server are not controled by VCS as stand-alone media server.

I wanna know how to set the virtual host name's storage unit,in other words,the virtual storage unit will switch between the VCS nodes.
