Veritas Storage Foundation 5.1 SP1 Cluster File System Installation Guide (5900-1510, April 2011)

■ Test the HA/DR configuration
■ Upon successful testing, bring the environment into production
Some SFCFS HA/DR configuration tasks may require adjustments depending upon
your particular starting point, environment, and configuration. Review the
installation requirements and sample cluster configuration files for primary and
secondary clusters.
Configuring a cluster at the primary site
You can use an existing SFCFS cluster or you can install a new SFCFS cluster for
your primary site.
For planning information:
See “About planning for SFCFS installation” on page 27.
If you are using an existing cluster as the primary and you want to set up a global
cluster, skip the steps below and proceed to configure your secondary cluster.
See “Configuring a cluster at the secondary site” on page 315.
Note: You must have a GCO license enabled for a global cluster. If you are using
VVR for replication, you must have a VVR license enabled.
If you do not have an existing cluster and you are setting up two new sites for an
SFCFS global cluster, follow the steps below.
To set up the cluster and database at the primary site
1
Install and configure servers and storage.
2
If you are using hardware-based replication, install the sofware for managing
your array.
3
Verify that you have the correct installation options enabled, whether you
are using keyless licensing or installing keys manually. You must have the
GCO option for a global cluster. If you are using VVR for replication, you must
have it enabled.
