Enable Arcserve Backup in NEC Cluster Scripts

Cluster scripts and registry keys are inserted during the NEC post-setup process. During the upgrade process, the cluster scripts are disabled and the registry key is deleted. When the upgrade is finished, these cluster scripts need to be enabled and registry keys need to be rebuilt.

Note: This section contains graphics that correspond with NEC CLUSTERPRO/ExpressCluster version 8.0. If you are running a more recent version of NEC CLUSTERPRO/ExpressCluster, see your NEC CLUSTERPRO/ExpressCluster documentation.

To enable Arcserve Backup in NEC cluster scripts

1. Access Cluster Manager.

   The Cluster Manager dialog appears.

   Note: Cluster Manager is a utility provided by NEC and is installed on servers that have NEC CLUSTERPRO/ExpressCluster installed. From the Cluster Manager, you perform most of the configuration and management tasks associated with clusters.

2. Select the NEC Group that the Arcserve server is deployed in, and locate the corresponding Arcserve cluster resources. Right-click on each Arcserve cluster resource and from the pop-up menu, select Property.

   The Group property dialog appears.

   

3. Select the Reference and Change option. When the Group properties dialog opens, select the Script tab.

   The Script tab dialog appears.

   

4. From the Script list, select start.bat and click Edit. When the start.bat script appears, locate the REM SET process script (two places) and set the value to 1 as follows:

   SET process=1
   

   Note: In the start.bat file, the REM SET process script is located after NORMAL and after FAILOVER.

   The start.bat script is modified.

5. From the Script list, select stop.bat and click Edit. When the stop.bat script appears, locate the REM SET process script (two places) and set the value to 1 as follows:

   SET process=1
   

   Note: In the stop.bat file, the REM SET process script is located after NORMAL and after FAILOVER.

   The stop.bat script is modified.

6. From the Group properties dialog, select the Registry tab. When the Registry dialog opens, click Add.

   The Add/Change registry key dialog appears.

   

7. Add the Registry key that corresponds with your computer's architecture:
   • x86 Platforms:

     HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ComputerAssociates\CA ARCServe Backup\Base
     

   • x64 Platforms:

     HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\ComputerAssociates\CA ARCServe Backup\Base
     

   Click OK.

   The Registry key is added to the Registry key list on the Group Properties dialog.
