Configuring the fire drill service group

After copying resources to the fire drill service group, edit the resources so they will work properly with the duplicated data. The attributes must be modified to reflect the configuration at the remote site. Bringing the service group online without modifying resource attributes is likely to result in a cluster fault and interruption in service.

To configure the service group

  1. In Cluster Explorer, click the Service Group tab in the left pane, click the fire drill service group in the left pane and click the Resources tab in the right pane.
  2. Right-click the RVGPrimary resource and click Delete.
  3. Right-click the resource to be edited and click View > Properties View. If a resource to be edited does not appear in the pane, click Show All Attributes.
  4. Edit attributes to reflect the configuration at the remote site. For example, change the MountV resources so that they point to the volumes used in the fire drill service group. Similarly, reconfigure the DNS and IP resources.
