B.2.1 Example of the Single system without NIC sharing

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".

[HOST-A]

1) Setting up the system

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

192.168.70.1    hosta   # HOST-A Virtual IP
192.168.70.2    host11  # HOST-A Physical IP
192.168.70.3    hostb   # HOST-B Virtual IP
192.168.70.4    host21  # HOST-B Physical IP
192.168.70.100  swhub1  # Primary HUB IP
192.168.70.101  swhub2  # Secondary HUB IP

2) Reflecting system setting

Run the following command and reload the connection profile. After reloading the profile, verify eth0 is enabled using the ip command.

/usr/bin/nmcli connection reload

3) Setting a subnet mask

/opt/FJSVhanet/usr/sbin/hanetmask create -i 192.168.70.0 -m 255.255.255.0

4) Creating a virtual interface

/opt/FJSVhanet/usr/sbin/hanetconfig create -n sha0 -m d -i 192.168.70.1 -e 192.168.70.2 -t eth0,eth1

Note

Ensure that the physical IP address specified using option '-e' is the same IP address configured in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ethX in RHEL8 or in the "nmcli connection modify" command in RHEL9. In RHEL8 or later, to correct mismatch of IP addresses, GLS automatically rewrites the configuration of the connection profile based on the IP address specified in the GLS command.

5) Setting up the HUB monitoring function

/opt/FJSVhanet/usr/sbin/hanetpoll create -n sha0 -p 192.168.70.100,192.168.70.101 -b off

6) Setting up the Standby patrol monitoring function

/opt/FJSVhanet/usr/sbin/hanetconfig create -n sha1 -m p -t sha0

7) Reboot

Run the following command to reboot the system.

/sbin/shutdown -r now

[HOST-B]

1) Setting up the system

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

2) Reflecting system setting

Run the following command and reload the connection profile. After reloading the profile, verify eth0 is enabled using the ip command.

/usr/bin/nmcli connection reload

3) Setting a subnet mask

/opt/FJSVhanet/usr/sbin/hanetmask create -i 192.168.70.0 -m 255.255.255.0

4) Creating a virtual interface

/opt/FJSVhanet/usr/sbin/hanetconfig create -n sha0 -m d -i 192.168.70.3 -e 192.168.70.4 -t eth0,eth1 

Note

Ensure that the physical IP address specified using option '-e' is the same IP address configured in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ethX in RHEL8 or in the "nmcli connection modify" command in RHEL9. In RHEL8 or later, to correct mismatch of IP addresses, GLS automatically rewrites the configuration of the connection profile based on the IP address specified in the GLS command.

5) Setting up the HUB monitoring function

/opt/FJSVhanet/usr/sbin/hanetpoll create -n sha0 -p 192.168.70.100,192.168.70.101 -b off

6) Setting up the Standby patrol monitoring function

/opt/FJSVhanet/usr/sbin/hanetconfig create -n sha1 -m p -t sha0

7) Reboot

Run the following command to reboot the system.

/sbin/shutdown -r now
