4.0.0 HP Polyserve Matrix Server Installation Guide (T5392-96046, March 2010)

Only the filesystems located on Master Volumes (not Standard Volumes) are snapshot
capable. To locate MSA2000 array controller firmware, or snapshot license
information, contact your HP representative.
Engenio storage arrays
To take hardware snapshots on Engenio storage arrays, the latest version of SANtricity
Storage Manager client software must be installed on all servers in the cluster. Also,
the latest version of firmware must be installed on your storage array controllers. To
obtain this software and firmware, contact your Engenio representative.
16. Configure the matrix
Configuration information
The matrix is configured from the PolyServe Management Console. You will be asked
for the following information:
• The location of your Matrix Server license file.
• A secret network key that provides security for network communications among
the matrix servers.
• The fencing method that you want to use (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 via server reset/shutdown.)
• The partitions or LUNs that you want to use for membership partitions.
• If you will be using the snapshot feature, information about the appropriate
snapshot method.
• The IP address or hostname of each server that will be in the matrix.
Connect to the Management Console
On one server, select Start > All Programs > PolyServe Matrix Server > PolyServe
Management Console. On the Matrix Server Connect window that appears next,
type the IP address or host name of the server in the Connect to field. Then click
the down-arrow on the Connect button. You will see two options: Connect and
Configure. Click Configure.
