New virtual IP for the package

[raiden]

Hello Guys,

I want to Configure a new package for a database FileSystem. I want to use a virtual IP for the database but I want to use existing lan card lan 1.

I want to know, whether I can plumb the IP on the existing Lan card "LAN1"and what are the requirements.. Are there any Files I need to modify and wat IP should I request from the network team . I guess I need an IP which is on the same subnet as LAN1 is ..

Below is configuration now. Already 2 IP's are plumbed on lan 1 . I want to plumb one more IP. what are the requirements.. Also would like to know does Service guards automatically plumbs the new IP if the subnet are same

lan1:1 1500 172.16.198.24 172.16.198.42 281188518 0 13 0 0
lan1 1500 172.16.198.24 172.16.198.30 307758965 0 2957448581 0 0
lan1:2 1500 172.16.198.24 172.16.202.43 672643900 0 584 0 0

Hi,

Yes. The new package ip should be on the same subnet of lan1. Otherwords the virtual ip will be plumped on the lan card which is on the same subnet if it is specified in cluster config file.

You need to create new package config file and package control script and put the virtual ip on control script and subnet on both files.

Service Guard will automatically assign this virtual ip address to lan1 when it start the package.

Thanks Ganesan. So there are no other files that need to be modified.

Shalom,

no other files. The IP address should be obtained from your network department and be considered permanent. Don't go grabbing one you think is free.
