Before creating the configuration file, take the following procedure:
Checking system requirements
Take the following steps to check the system requirements.
Establishing user feature requirements
Monitoring the cluster node and establishing the usage of SF for the shutdown
Determining the most suitable shutdown agent
Planning the configuration of the shutdown agent
The following are necessary to plan the configuration of the shutdown agent.
A node monitored by SF
Shutdown agent
The configuration design is determined depending on the environment where SF is used, and depending on requirements specified for the node.
The monitoring by SF should also be determined in detail.
(Shutdown agent or flow of usage, for example)
Defining Shutdown Agent (SA) to be configured in SF
When all the cluster interconnects are disabled due to a hung or a failure of the node that configures the cluster system, the node should be forcibly stopped. For this reason, SA should be defined. When defining SA, check the hardware model and configure the suitable shutdown agent for the model.
