Service Guard Cluster how to configure the virtual IP

[dgkedkwekw]

Hi,

       Please provide me the steps and details how to configure the virtual (service) IP address for HP 11.23 SGC.

Regards,

Kumar.

The virtual IPs are generally configured as part of a SG package.

Instructions for setting up packages are in the SG documentation.

Chapter 6 "Configuring Packages and Their Services"  talks about setting up SG packages and the parameters that need to be configured.

hi thnaks

but still not able to configure  the virtual ip...i have two node  node1 and node2.........when i am rebooting node1 my volume is mounting on the other node2..till here its file no issue..failover is happening...........but now i have to configure virtual ip so that from other node i can access the mount point ...and i can run io on that mount.....during io i want to reboot my node1 and after that i want to see io should not stop.....this is  my oblective....while configure virtual ip...on which of the files i have to mention the virtual ip and subnetmask  and need require nfs? ...how should i configure nfs in this case.

could be package starup script or conf file...

Determine the subnet the relocatable IP will use by inspecting the 'netstat -in' output and identifying a subnet that you want a relocatable IP assigned to. 

Get your network admin to allocate an available IP for that subnet for use as the relocatable IP.

Depending on whether you are using modular package configuration file (parameters are in lower-case) or legacy-style (parameters are in upper-case) package configuration file, edit the package configuration file and include these parameters at the locations they are described in the file:

modular style:

ip_subnet                         192.168.10.0   # use the subnet related to the relocatable IP you were assigned
ip_address                192.168.10.100   # this is the relocatable IP your network admin assigned

legacy style:

SUBNET                     192.168.10.0  # note, if you do not add this line, Serviceguard will not failover the package if the subnet fails.  This may be desirable depending on your resolution strategy.

If this is a legacy style package, edit the package control script and add lines similar to the following:
IP[0]="192.168.10.100"
SUBNET[0]="192.168.10.0"

Copy the legacy style package control script the other node(s)

Update the cluster binary file:

% cmapplyconf -f -P <package_config_file>
