4.1.0 HP PolyServe Software for Microsoft SQL Server administration guide (T5392-96074, October 2010)

To place a Virtual SQL Server in maintenance mode from the command line, use this
command:
mx vsql maintain <vsql>
To return the Virtual SQL Server to operation mode, use this command:
mx vsql operate <vsql>
Create a notifier for the Registry Replicator
To assist with monitoring HP PolyServe Software, we recommend that you create a
notifier for the alerts generated by the Registry Replicator. (Alerts for the Registry
Replicator are in the event range 40510 to 40516.) See the HP PolyServe Matrix
Server administration guide for information about configuring notifiers.
Change the network configuration
The SQL Server instance installation captures and stores the current IP network
configuration of the node on which it is installed. If you later need to change the
network configuration (for example, to remove a NIC or change its IP), it is necessary
to devirtualize the Virtual SQL Servers configured on the affected node, make the
needed changes, and then revirtualize.
To devirtualize a Virtual SQL Server, you will need to delete it from the matrix
configuration. Select the Virtual SQL Server on the PolyServe Management Console,
right-click, and select Delete. After making your network changes, you can recreate
the Virtual SQL Server.
Add a new node to a Virtual SQL Server
The new node must be running Matrix Server and HP PolyServe Software and must
belong to the matrix. To add the node to a Virtual SQL Server, take these steps:
1. Start the Multi-Node Install Wizard and install the SQL instances associated with
the Virtual SQL Server. Use the templates that were used to install the instances
on the other nodes configured for the Virtual SQL Server.
2. Add the node to the Virtual SQL Server. Right-click on the Virtual SQL Server,
select Properties and then add the node on the Update Virtual SQL Server dialog.
