If you have the Assure Security product installed on systems in a MIMIX environment and you plan to activate the security product on the backup node following a switch, there are several things you must do:
-
Customize the step programs identified in Table 83.
-
Enable the steps in the appropriate *START, *SWTPLAN, and *SWTUNPLAN procedures.
-
Configure selection rules (data group entries) to replicate specific objects in the Assure Security product library and IFS directory. For more information and a list of what objects must be replicated, see topic “Integration with a high availability environment” in the Assure Security Readme document for version 6.0.
