Test Your Configuration
After you have configured HP Clustered File System, we recommend that
you perform a set of basic tests to validate that SAN shared filesystem
operation, virtual host operation and failover, DNS load-balancing
operation and failover, and failover of the LAN administrative network
work correctly.
After completing these tests successfully, you may want to run a more
substantial test of your specific requirements to validate that HP
Clustered File System is working in your environment. We strongly
recommend that you perform the first two sets of tests (“Test SAN Shared
Filesystem Operation” and “Test Virtual Host Operation and Failover”)
to validate the basic configuration of the cluster.
Test SAN Shared Filesystem Operation
The first step in validating the successful operation of HP Clustered File
System is to verify that your SAN hardware configuration, operating
system configuration, and HP Clustered File System software
configuration correctly support PSFS filesystems shared across the
servers in your cluster.
