Working with Clusters
Clustering is the connecting of two or more computers together in such a way that
they behave like a single computer. Clustering is used for parallel processing, load
balancing, and fault tolerance.
The supported clustering software for Sun Solaris is Sun Cluster and Veritas
Cluster Server. See the platform-specific release notes for the specific version of
the supported clustering software.
Be sure to install the Sun Solaris Kit on each server in the cluster. Refer to the
documentation that came with the clustering software for more specific
information.
Expanding Volumes
You can increase the volume size of the virtual disk with the Command View
EVA. You simply change the size parameter in the particular virtual disk’s
property page. Sun Solaris can increase the virtual disk volume size with the
growfs command.
Note: As with any large-scale operation, it is always best to first create a backup of
your data.
1. Stop all applications using the virtual disk and unmount the filesystem.
2. Increase the virtual disk size using the HSV Element Manager.
3. Run the growfs command (refer to the Sun documentation).
4. Mount the filesystem.
The expanded virtual disk is now available for use.
Note: Refer to instructions for other supported third-party software products to grow
volume size.
