HP CIFS Server 2.2i Administrator's Guide version A.01.11.01

Conﬁguring HA HP CIFS

Overview of HA HP CIFS Server Active-Active

Chapter 7 171

When complete, each HPUX system will have a package using the

NetBIOS name for each node in the cluster, though only the package

with its own NetBIOS name will be active until a failover occurs.

For example, if you have a three node cluster, you will have three

packages on each of the three HPUX systems.

There will be three cluster directories:

1. /etc/cmcluster/samba/sambapkg1

2. /etc/cmcluster/samba/sambapkg2

3. /etc/cmcluster/samba/sambapkg3.

There will be three conﬁguration ﬁles:

1. /etc/opt/samba/smb.conf.ha_server1,

2. /etc/opt/samba/smb.conf.ha_server2

3. /etc/opt/samba/smb.conf.ha_server3.

There will be three directories:

1. /var/opt/samba/ha_server1

2. /var/opt/samba/ha_server2

3. /var/opt/samba/ha_server3

...where the locks and log ﬁles will reside.

Complete the following for each CIFS package of your MC/ServiceGuard

cluster:

1. Create the following directories:

/var/opt/samba/<netbios name>

/locks/var/opt/samba/<netbios name>/logs

where <netbios name> is the name for your CIFS server. For

example:

$mkdir /var/opt/samba/ha_server1

$mkdir /var/opt/samba/ha_server1/locks

$mkdir /var/opt/samba/ha_server1/logs

This step is IMPORTANT because these paths are referenced

by the MCServiceGuard cluster scripts, samba.cntl and

samba.mon.
