B.8.7 Example of the Cluster system (Mutual Standby)

This section describes an example configuration procedure of the network shown in the diagram below.

For the network configuration other than GLS, refer to "3.2.2 Network configuration".
For the GS configuration, refer to GS manual.
For configuring the cluster system, refer to the Cluster system manual.
In this section, description of private LAN is omitted.
The dotted line indicates that the interface is inactive.

[HOST-A]

1) Setting up the system

1-1) Define IP addresses and hostnames in /etc/hosts file.

192.168.70.2    host11   # HOST-B Physical IP
192.168.71.2    host12   # HOST-B Physical IP
192.168.80.1    hosta    # HOST-A/B Virtual IP(Takeover virtual IP)
192.168.81.2    hostb    # HOST-A/B Virtual IP(Takeover virtual IP)
192.168.80.254  virgw    # Virtual gateway
192.168.81.254  virgw    # Virtual gateway
192.168.70.3    gs11     # GS-1 Physical IP(IP-1)

192.168.90.3    gsa      # GS-1 Virtual IP
192.168.91.3    gsb      # GS-1 Virtual IP

1-2) Configure /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ethX (X is 0,1) file as follows.

Note

The following setting example (/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ethX) is for RHEL5. For details, see "3.2.2 Network configuration".

1-3) When the system is RHEL, on the /etc/sysconfig/network file, define a statement which enables the network configuration.

NETWORKING=yes

1-4) Set the static route information of the virtual gateway for the remote host's virtual IP address in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/route-"interface name".

Note

When you set the operation node monitoring information, be sure to specify the takeover IP address with the "-i" option.

6) Setting a virtual gateway

/opt/FJSVhanet/usr/sbin/hanetgw create -n sha0 -g 192.168.80.254
/opt/FJSVhanet/usr/sbin/hanetgw create -n sha0 -g 192.168.81.254

7) Creating of takeover virtual interface

/opt/FJSVhanet/usr/sbin/hanethvrsc create -n sha1

[HOST-B]

1) Setting up the system

1-1) Define IP addresses and hostnames in /etc/hosts file. Defined information is the same as for HOST-A.

1-2) Configure /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ethX (X is 0,1) file as follows.

Note

The following setting example (/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ethX) is for RHEL5. For details, see "3.2.2 Network configuration".

[Configuration by RMS Wizard]

1) Configuration of userApplication

After configuring HOST-A and HOST-B, register the created takeover virtual interface as a Gls resource to create a cluster application. Use RMS Wizard to set up the cluster configuration. For details, see "PRIMECLUSTER Installation and Administration Guide".

2) Starting of userApplication

After completing the configuration, start the userApplication to activate the takeover virtual interface on the operation node.

[GS-1]

Set the information for HOST-A's physical IP address and virtual IP address. For information on how to do this, see the GS manual.
