Monitoring Microsoft Cluster

Chad Paulson — Wed, 08 Sep 2004 14:24:09 GMT

Hi,

I have a Microsoft cluster running on prolian dl380s. I can see the nodes in insight . But it will not recognise the cluster. Any ideas or links to documents would be greatly welcome.

Thanx,
Chad

Make sure that the Clustering Information Agent is Active and run a automatic discovery using the cluster ip address and the nodes ip addresses.

As mentioned, goto ControlPanel -> HP Management Agents, Services Tab, and add Clustering Information.

Thanx for the answers. I hav checked teh control panel and the cluster infromation is in the active pane on the services tab for the agents on boht nodes.

I checked the auto dicovery setting and the iP addresses of both nodes and the cluster virtual IP are with in that range.

However I still can not see it. I see th nodes and can access them. When I try to add the cluster IP address manually it states that it already exists in the database. But I can't find it.

I believe the cluster information service on the nodes is operating as I do get events listing information from the cluster (ie cluster node failed when I shutdown one of the nodes)

Is there something else I can try or another place I can look in for a setting to change.

Have you tried to run a Options -> Discovery -> Identify Systems?

I just ran it. It completed with no errors but I can not find the system by name or IP in the list of targets.

You might try deleting both cluster nodes and then do another discovery. During the discovery you should specify the IP addresses of both cluster nodes AND the cluster IP resources.
