If you use Volume Replicator for replication, you must configure the Veritas Volume Replicator Security Service (VxSAS) on all the cluster nodes.
In a Replicated Data Cluster environment, you must configure the service on all the nodes in the primary zone as well as the secondary zone.
For details on this required service, see the Volume Replicator Administrator's Guide.
After you install InfoScale Storage or InfoScale Enterprise, launch the Veritas Volume Replicator Security Service Configuration Wizard. This wizard lets you complete the Volume Replicator security service configuration.
To do so, launch the wizard after you install InfoScale Enterprise on both the primary and secondary nodes. Then, when you run the wizard, you can specify the primary and secondary sites in one step.
The wizard requires you to be logged on with administrative privileges.
The account that you specify must have administrative and log-on as service privileges on all the specified hosts.
Avoid specifying blank passwords. In a Windows Server environment, accounts with blank passwords are not supported for log-on service privileges.
The systems on which you want to configure VxSAS must be accessible from the local system.
To configure VxSAS
Optionally, run vxsascfg.exe from the command prompt of the required machine.
If you have already configured VxSAS for one host that is intended to be a part of the RDS, make sure you specify the same username and password when configuring VxSAS on the other hosts.
Click Next.
Click Next.
After you have selected a host name, the Configure button is enabled. Click Configure to proceed with configuring VxSAS.
When configuring VxSAS in a firewall setup, the VxSAS wizard may not be able to configure the machines that are across the firewall, although the Host Selection dialog may list these nodes. In this case, configure VxSAS locally on the machines that are across the firewall.
