Step 10: Starting HP-UX IPSec and
MC/ServiceGuard
HP-UX IPSec must be running on all cluster nodes with the same HP-UX
IPSec configuration files before you start the MC/ServiceGuard cluster.
Use the following procedure to start HP-UX IPSec and
MC/ServiceGuard.
1. Start HP-UX IPSec. There are two ways to start HP-UX IPSec:
• Manually, using the ipsec_admin -start command.
• Automatically, at system boot-up time. See Chapter 3, “Step 9:
Configuring HP-UX IPSec to Start Automatically” on page 109 to
configure HP-UX IPSec to start automatically at system boot-up
time.
2. After you have started HP-UX IPSec on all nodes in the cluster, you
can start MC/ServiceGuard using the cmruncl command, as
described in the MC/ServiceGuard product documentation.
3. After the MC/ServiceGuard cluster is running, you can use the
output from the ipsec_report -cache command to verify that
HP-UX IPSec is allowing heartbeat messages to pass in clear text.
Adding a Node to a Running Cluster
If you have a running MC/ServiceGuard cluster that uses HP-UX IPSec
and want to add a node to that cluster, you must install the cluster
HP-UX IPSec configuration files and start HP-UX IPSec on that node
before adding it to the cluster.
