5.5.2 Deletion Procedure

To delete the cluster environment, use the following procedure:

Note

The "Computer Browser service" Windows service must be activated if a user belonging to the Administrators domain wants to perform customization for the Windows version of MSCS/WSFC.

Note

Do not use the following services to perform this processing. Otherwise, a problem may occur (However, this excludes cases when Symfoware Server V9.1.1 or later is used in Windows Server 2008):

  • Terminal service (use by remote desktop connection)

  • Telnet server service

If the Storage Management Server is the Windows Server 2003, use it by making console session connection with the terminal service. Refer to the following web page for details of the method of console session connection.

  1. If the object to be deleted is a Storage Server, use the Web GUI of the AdvancedCopy Manager to delete the logical server to which the applicable Storage Server transaction belongs. If the object to be deleted is a Storage Management Server, this step is not required.

  2. Use the cluster administrator (MSCS) or failover cluster management (WSFC) to switch the cluster group to which the applicable AdvancedCopy Manager belongs to offline operation. However, leave the shared disk for shared data online. Moreover, in the case of Storage Management Server transaction, leave the shared disk for the repository online. For information about how to switch the cluster group offline, refer to the Microsoft(R) Cluster Service/Windows Server(R) Failover Clustering manuals.

    Note

    If the system is the 1:1 standby system, the Mutual standby system or the n:1 standby system, proceed to step 5.

    If the system is Cascade topology, proceed to step 3.

  3. On the secondary node B, use the cluster administrator (MSCS) or failover cluster management (WSFC) to acquire the ownership right to the cluster group to which the applicable AdvancedCopy Manager belongs. For information about how to acquire ownership rights, refer to the Microsoft(R) Cluster Service/Windows Server(R) Failover Clustering manuals.

    Note

    When the secondary node B consists of two or more nodes, perform Step 3 and Step 4 on all the secondary nodes B.

  4. On the secondary node B, execute the cluster unsetup command. The procedure for executing the command is as follows.

    1. Execute the following command from the command prompt window on the secondary node B:

      Program-directory\bin\stgclunset_mscs
    2. The cluster unsetup command window is displayed.

      Select the logical node name of the AdvancedCopy Manager transaction to be deleted. For unsetup after node failure, select the Forced Execution checkbox. After confirming each field, click the [OK] button.

    3. If the transaction to be deleted is a Storage Management Server transaction, the start window for deleting the environment (database) of the Storage Management Server transaction is displayed.

      Click the [Start] button.

    4. If the transaction to be deleted is a Storage Management Server transaction, the deletion complete window of the environment (database) of the Storage Management Server transaction is displayed.

      Click the [Close] button.

    5. The start window of the port number and service setting/release command is displayed.

      Click the [OK] button.

    6. The completion window of the port number and service setting/release command is displayed.

      Click the [OK] button.

    7. Complete the cluster unsetup of the secondary node.

      When the completion window of cluster unsetup is displayed, click the [OK] button.

      Note

      For the secondary node B, the swstf8143 message is displayed.

      If there are remaining secondary nodes B for which steps 3 to 4 have not been performed, perform from Step 3 for the nodes. When operation from Step 3 and Step 4 is completed by all secondary nodes B, go to Step 5.

  5. On the secondary node A, use the cluster administrator (MSCS) or failover cluster management (WSFC) to acquire the ownership right to the cluster group to which the applicable AdvancedCopy Manager belongs. For information about how to acquire ownership rights, refer to the Microsoft(R) Cluster Service/Windows Server(R) Failover Clustering manuals.

  6. On the secondary node A, execute the cluster unsetup command. The procedure for executing the command is as follows.

    1. Execute the following command from the command prompt window on the secondary node A:

      Program-directory\bin\stgclunset_mscs
    2. The cluster unsetup command window is displayed.

      Select the logical node name of the transaction to be deleted. For unsetup after node failure, select the Forced Execution field. After confirming each field, click the [OK] button.

    3. If the transaction to be deleted is a Storage Management Server transaction, the start window for deleting the environment (database) of the Storage Management Server transaction is displayed.

      Click the [Start] button.

    4. If the transaction to be deleted is a Storage Management Server transaction, the deletion completed window of the environment (database) of the Storage Management Server transaction is displayed.

      Click the [Close] button.

    5. The start window of the port number and service setting/release command is displayed.

      Click the [OK] button.
