Edit util_par_file to Define Environment Variables

By editing util_par_file, you define the environment variables for the backup option integration module. To set the values for the parameters in this file, run hanasetup or pfilesetup.

When the Enterprise Option for SAP HANA performs a SAP HANA backup job, the backup option integration module creates a backup job and sends to the Arcserve Backup server for execution. The job is submitted using the backup parameters that you set in util_par_file. In util_par_file you can perform the following options:

• Designate tapes that you want to use
• Define backup group properties
• Define media pool properties

Required Options

You must set the following parameters in util_par_file:

HOST=<Arcserve Backup Server Name >
USERNAME=<name of a user who has access to the SAP HANA files on the client node>
PASSWORD= <password of that user>

Additional Options

You can set the following optional parameters to customize options for tapes, group names, and media pools:

Options:
ORIGINALHOST=< Original Hostname of the Backup when restoring one hosts data to another host >.

Log Options:
SNMP=< True/False >
TNG=< True/False >
EMAIL=< john.smith@ca.com >
PRINTER=< lp >

Destination Options:
EJECT=< True/False >
DESTTAPE=< Tape Name >
DESTGROUP=< Device Group Name >
MEDIAPOOL=	< Media Pool Name >
TAPEMETHOD=< Append / Owritesameblank / Owritesameblankany >
SPANTAPEMETHOD=< Owritesameblank / Owritesameblankany >
TAPETIMEOUT=< minutes >
SPANTAPETIMEOUT=< minutes >

Description of Additional Options:

• SNMP: Lets you send alert information through SNMP.
• TNG: Lets you send alert information through TNG.
• EMAIL: Lets you send alert information through EMAIL.
• PRINTER: Lets you send alert information to a printer.

Note: Configure the SNMP, TNG, EMAIL, and PRINTER options using the Arcserve Backup Alert Manager before you configure the parameters in the util_par_file configuration file. For more information, see the Administration Guide.

• EJECT: Lets you eject tapes after backups are complete.
• DESTTAPE: Lets you specify tape names that you use for backups.

  Note: Arcserve Backup ignores this option when you specify the MEDIAPOOL option.

  Note: Arcserve Backup ignores this option when you specify the MEDIAPOOL option.

• MEDIAPOOL: Lets you specify the media pool to use for the backup.
• TAPEMETHOD: Lets you specify the overwrite method to use on the first tape during the backup. You can specify one of the following values:
  • Append
  • Owritesameblank
  • Owritesameblankany
• SPANTAPEMETHOD: Lets you specify the tape spanning method to use on additional tapes during the backup. You can specify one of the following values:
  • Owritesameblank
  • Owritesameblankany
• TAPETIMEOUT: Lets you specify a timeout value for the first tape.
• SPANTAPETIMEOUT: Lets you specify a timeout value for additional tapes.

Schedule Options

You can set the following schedule options, that enable you to use a different tape, media pool, or both, following a seven-day cycle:

DAYOFWEEK =< True / False >

Without Multistreaming

DESTTAPESUN=< Tape Name to use on Sunday >
DESTTAPEMON=< Tape Name to use on Monday >
DESTTAPETUE=< Tape Name to use on Tuesday >
DESTTAPEWED=< Tape Name to use on Wednesday >
DESTTAPETHU=< Tape Name to use on Thursday >
DESTTAPEFRI=< Tape Name to use on Friday >
DESTTAPESAT=< Tape Name to use on Saturday >

If you do not specify a tape for the current day when you set the schedule options, the tape specified in the DESTTAPE is used as the default.

Considerations:

• Tape names cannot exceed 24 characters.
• To comment out a line, enter # at the beginning of a line. This method applies to all options.
