PRIMECLUSTER Installation and Administration Guide 4.1 (for Solaris(TM) Operating System)

6.4 Setting Up the Application Environment

Configure an environment for the applications to be used in the PRIMECLUSTER system.

The environment configuration for the individual applications may involve registering resources to the PRIMECLUSTER system.

There are also products that require you to set up an environment that uses the shared disk units and takeover networks that were set in this chapter.

See the manuals for the individual applications.

Setting the local MAC address

Set a local MAC address in each node if the following conditions apply:

• If MAC address takeover is to be performed and network interfaces for multiple LANs are connected to the same transmission path
• If MAC address takeover is to be performed in the network interface for an expansion LAN that Web-Based Admin View does not use

Determine one local MAC address between the interfaces for takeover, and set the address in the /etc/opt/FSUNnet/mactool/macaddr.conf file of each node. If a local MAC address is set, the LAN network interface is not activated until the cluster application is started. The interface in which the local MAC address is set cannot be used for Web-Based Admin View. You cannot set up an IP address in this interface. Also, this interface cannot be connected to power control box 4.
