HP StorageWorks XP Replication Monitor software installation and configuration guide (T1784-96008, November 2006)

Creating a cluster environment 105
7-3-1-2 Settings on the standby node
This subsection shows the procedures used to specify settings for a cluster environment in the standby node in
Windows.
The following procedures assume that cluster software and a shared disk are ready and that the management
server where the XP Replication Monitor server has been set up is set to be the standby node in a cluster
configuration.
To specify settings for a cluster environment in the standby node in Windows:
1. When other Command View XP AE Suite products are in operation, stop the service tasks of those
Command View XP AE Suite products and services of Common Component (HBase Storage Mgmt Web
Service and HBase Storage Mgmt Common Service).
For details on the how to stop other Command View XP AE Suite product services, see the corresponding
product manual.
Execute the following command to terminate HBase Storage Mgmt Web Service and HBase Storage Mgmt
Common Service:
Common-Component-installation-folder\bin\hcmdssrv /stop
Supplementary explanation:
When stopping Command View XP AE Suite product services, stop them in the following order. For
details, see the documentation for each product.
1. Other Command View XP AE Suite product services
2. Common Component services
2. Create the cluster setting file cluster.conf using a text editor.
In the cluster setting file, specify whether the node is the executing or standby node, and specify the host
names of the virtual host, executing node, and standby node. Use the formats shown below:
mode = Specifies whether the node is the executing or standby node.
virtualhost = Specifies the host name of the virtual host.
onlinehost = Specifies the host name of the executing node.
standbyhost = Specifies the host name of the standby node
In the following example, items are specified for a standby node:
mode = standby
virtualhost = virt99
onlinehost = hrpm5
standbyhost = hrpm7
Store the created cluster setting file in Common-Component-installation-folder\conf.
Supplementary explanation:
In the cluster setting file cluster.conf, you cannot use IP addresses to specify the host names of the
virtual host, executing node, or standby node.
The virtual host name specified for virtualhost must be valid for the corresponding IP address and
must be accessible.
3. Execute the following command to change the setting in order to use a database on a shared disk:
Execute the following command. Executing this command changes the port number of the port used by
HiRDB to the default port number (23032). If you changed the port number to a number other than the
default, take note of the port number being used so that you can specify it later.
Common-Component-installation-folder\bin\hcmdsdbremake /cluster /databasepath
database-recreation-folder
An example of command execution is shown below:
