HP StorageWorks XP Provisioning Manager Installation and Configuration Guide (December 2005)

3-2-1 Installing a Provisioning Manager Server in a Cluster Environment
When you operate a Provisioning Manager server in a cluster environment, availability of the Provisioning
Manager server is enhanced.
If you want to operate a Provisioning Manager server in a cluster environment, you must perform setup for a
Device Manager server in a cluster environment. This section describes an installation of Provisioning Manager
in a cluster environment with Microsoft
®
Cluster Server by using the following methods:
• Installing a Provisioning Manager server together with a Device Manager server in a cluster environment.
• Installing a Provisioning Manger server during the Device Manager server's operation in a cluster
environment.
3-2-2 Installing a Provisioning Manager Server Together with a Device
Manager Server in a Cluster Environment
When you install a Provisioning Manager server together with a Device Manager server in a cluster
environment, follow the procedure for installing the Device Manager server in a cluster environment to install
the Device Manager server, and then install the Provisioning Manager server.
For details about installing the Device Manager server in a cluster environment, see the
HP StorageWorks
Command View XP Advanced Edition Device Manager Server Installation and Configuration Guide.
3-2-3 Installing a Provisioning Manager Server during Device Manager
Server's Operation in a Cluster Environment
When installing a Provisioning Manager server on a Device Manager server that is operating in a cluster
environment, follow the procedure for re-installing the Device Manager server in a cluster environment but,
instead of re-installing the Device Manager server, install the Provisioning Manager server. For details on how
to re-install the Device Manager server in a cluster environment, see the
HP StorageWorks Command View XP
Advanced Edition Device Manager Server Installation and Configuration Guide.
The following services must be started before installing the Provisioning Manager server. If any of the following
services have not started, start the services in the following order, before installing the Provisioning Manager
server:
1. the Common Component services.
2. HiCommandServer.
3-3 Upgrading the Provisioning Manager Server
Before beginning an update installation, you need to check the following items:
• HiRDB must be running.
• Enter the following command to check whether HiRDB is running:
installation-folder-for- Common-Component\bin\hcmdssrv /status
• Several messages are displayed. If these include the following message, then HiRDB is running
normally:
KAPM06440-I The HiRDB service has already started.
• If HiRDB is not running, enter the following command to manually start HiRDB:
installation-folder-for- Common-Component\bin\hcmdssrv /start
• The Provisioning Manager database is shared with the Device Manager database. Add the capacity used
by Device Manager to the capacity to be used by Provisioning Manager to calculate the total capacity. For
details, see
HP StorageWorks Command View XP Advanced Edition Device Manager Server Installation
and Configuration Guide
.
By default, if you perform a new installation of Device Manager, 100 MB is reserved for the Device
Manager database (including the capacity used by Provisioning Manager). However, when the used
capacity exceeds 100 MB (for a large configuration), the Device Manager database capacity
automatically increases.
The estimate of the capacity to be used by Provisioning Manager is as follows:
• Small configuration example:
• In the following configuration, the estimate of the capacity used by Provisioning Manager is 33
MB.
