Set up Cluster Foundation (CF) and CIP using the CF Wizard of Cluster Admin. Enter the information described in the table below. The worksheet for the CF and CIP setup is the "A.7 Cluster Configuration Worksheet."
For details on the setting, see "1.1.5 Example of creating a cluster" in "PRIMECLUSTER Cluster Foundation (CF) Configuration and Administration Guide."
Setup item | Description | Described in worksheet |
|---|---|---|
Cluster name | Define the name of the cluster systems. | "Cluster name" |
Cluster nodes | Select the nodes that will construct a cluster system. | "Node name (uname-n)" for "Node 1", "Node 2", "Node 3" and "Node 4" |
CF node names | Set the names of the nodes that construct the cluster. | "CF node name" for "Node 1", "Node 2", "Node 3" and "Node 4" |
Cluster interconnects | In each node of the cluster, determine the network interface to be used in CF inter-node communication. A representative network interface is the Ethernet device. | "Path 0 NIC name" and "Path 1 NIC name" for "Node 1", "Node 2", "Node 3" and "Node 4" |
IP interconnects | Optional. This setup allows you to operate CF over IP. | "IP interconnect setup" |
CIP subnets | Set the following items, and set the IP address used by CF:
| "Number of subnets", "Subnet IP", and "Net mask" for "CIP" |
Usage confirmation of CF remote services | Check whether the following functions are to be enabled:
With the default settings, these services are "Not selected." To use RMS, you need to select at least one function. | "CF remote service usage" |
Cluster Integrity Monitor (CIM) configuration | Set the nodes to be monitored by CIM. | "Node in CF quorum set" for "Node 1", "Node 2", "Node 3" and "Node 4" |
Note
To change the cluster name and the CF node name and, PRIMECLUSTER system needs to be rebuilt.
If you enable any one of the CF remote services, do not connect the following systems in the same cluster interconnect:
Systems that have a security problem
Systems in which cluster interconnects are not secured
Hereinafter, the CF remote services (CFCP and CFSH) must be enabled. To enable the CFCP and CFSH, add the following definition to the "/etc/default/cluster.config" file before configuring the CF.
CFCP "cfcp" CFSH "cfsh"
If the CF and CIP configuration fails, check the following:
The cluster interconnect is connected.
The network interface that is used for the cluster interconnect is activated.
An IP address is configured for the network interface.
After the CF setup is completed, the "SF Wizard Startup Check" pop-up window is displayed. Click the No button. SF Wizard is not available in PRIMECLUSTER 4.3. Set up the SF according to the instructions in "5.1.2 Setting Up the Shutdown Facility."
To share a NIC with the administrative LAN and the cluster interconnect, see "1.1 CF, CIP, and CIM configuration" in "PRIMECLUSTER Cluster Foundation (CF) Configuration and Administration Guide."
When the bonding device is used for the cluster interconnection, only mode=1(active-backup) can be used.
Note
In the case of the single-node cluster operation
When constructing multiple single-node clusters, specify a different name per each node, such as including the node' own name in the name.
For the network interface specified to the cluster interconnect, select a dedicated network interface device listed in the above table.
Select [No] to the message of "Do you wish to invoke the Shutdown Facility Wizard to configure this cluster?" output after configuring CF in ClusterAdmin since the setting of the shutdown facility is unnecessary.
Following messages of the shutdown facility and RMS are output, however, this is no problem, since the setting of the shutdown facility is not performed.
Messages of the shutdown facility:
fopen of /etc/opt/SMAW/SMAWsf/rcsd.cfg failed, errno 2 Could not correctly read the rcsd.cfg file
Messages of RMS:
(SCR,26): ERROR The sdtool notification script has failed with status 1 after dynamic modification.

For information on the corrective action to be applied when the setting of the cluster interconnect fails, see "Chapter 8 Diagnostics and troubleshooting" in "PRIMECLUSTER Cluster Foundation (CF) Configuration and Administration Guide."
