HP StorageWorks Clustered File System 3.1.1 for Linux Installation Guide (May 2006)

Configure the Cluster from the

Command Line

This appendix describes how to use the mxconfig utility to configure the

cluster from the command line. The utility allows you to upgrade the

license file, to select a cluster password and a Network Authentication

Secret password, to select a fencing method, to specify the FibreChannel

switches connected to the nodes in the cluster, and to select the LUNs or

disk partitions to be used as Clustered File System membership

partitions.

Run mxconfig

You can run mxconfig on one server and then export the resulting

configuration to the other servers. You must be root to run this utility. (To

see help information, type mxconfig --help.)

# /opt/hpcfs/bin/mxconfig

When you invoke mxconfig, the following Welcome window appears.

NOTE: If mxconfig does not display properly, increase the size of your

window and then run mxconfig again. Setting the

TERM variable

to xterm may also make the display easier to read.
