This section explains how to allocate resources to, and release resources from, L-Servers and how to modify configuration definition information.
When an L-Server is started, resources are allocated to it.
For details on how to start an L-Server, refer to "17.1.1 Starting an L-Server".
Server and disk resources are allocated to the L-Server, when an L-Server is first started. When cloning images are specified, deployment of images is also performed.
When server resources of L-Servers have been released, server resources will be allocated.
When stopping an L-Server, server resources will be released.
For details on how to stop an L-Server, refer to "17.1.2 Stopping an L-Server".
Methods for releasing server resources differ depending on whether the server is a physical L-Server or virtual L-Server.
Physical L-Server
The physical server that was used for the L-Server will be released.
Virtual L-Server
VM guests that are created on VM hosts are excluded from the target for calculation of the total amount of VM host usage.
To modify an L-Server for which a configuration definition has been created (defined), use the following procedure.
When changing the L-Server deployed when creating an L-Platform, use the rcxadm lserver modify command to modify the configuration for alive monitoring.
Right-click the target L-Server in the orchestration tree, and select [Change Settings]-[Definition] from the popup menu.
The [Modify L-Server's definition] dialog is displayed.
Change the items to modify.
For details on setting values in the [Modify L-Server's definition] dialog, refer to "Chapter 16 Creating L-Servers".
Click <OK>.
The L-Server configuration definition information is modified.
From the command-line, execute rcxadm lserver modify.
For details on the rcxadm lserver modify command, refer to "3.6 rcxadm lserver" in the "Reference Guide (Command/XML) CE".
Note
When modifying the configuration definition for an already defined L-Server that has been updated from an earlier version, alive monitoring is disabled. When enabling alive monitoring, modify the configuration of the L-Server again.
