5 Building an HA Cluster
Configuration
This chapter and the next take you through the configuration tasks
required to set up a Serviceguard cluster. These procedures are carried
out on one node, called the configuration node, and the resulting
binary file is distributed by Serviceguard to all the nodes in the cluster.
In the examples in this chapter, the configuration node is named ftsys9,
and the sample target node is called ftsys10. This chapter describes the
following cluster configuration tasks:
• Preparing Your Systems
• Setting up the Quorum Server
• Installing and Updating Serviceguard
• Creating a Storage Infrastructure with LVM
• Creating a Storage Infrastructure with VxVM
• Creating a Storage Infrastructure and Filesystems with VERITAS
CVM/CFS (on systems that support it)
• Configuring the Cluster
• Managing the Running Cluster
Configuring packages is described in the next chapter.
