13. Configure the Cluster from the Management
Console
A windowing environment must be installed on the server where you are
running the Management Console. (If you prefer to configure the cluster
from the command line, see Appendix C.)
You will be asked for the following information during the configuration:
• The IP address or hostname of each server that will be in the cluster.
• The location of your Clustered File System license file.
• A secret network key that provides security for network
communications among the cluster servers.
• An administrative password for configuring the cluster.
• The fencing method (either FibreChannel switch-based fencing or
Web Management-based fencing via server reset/shutdown).
• The IP address or hostname of each FibreChannel switch that is
included in the SAN. (This step is required for FibreChannel switch-
based fencing and optional for Web Management-based fencing.)
• The partitions or LUNs to be used for membership partitions.
Connect to the Management Console
To start the Management Console, first start the windowing environment
on the server and then type the following command:
$ /opt/hpcfs/bin/mxconsole
On the Login window that appears next, enter the IP address of the
server, type admin for both the user and the password, and then click the
Configure button.
