3.7.8 Create the /hptc_cluster File System
This task is optional. Do one of the following only if you chose to install the /hptc_cluster
file system somewhere other than on the installation disk on the head node.
Mount the /hptc_cluster File System on an HP SFS Server
During the HP XC system configuration process, you might have decided to configure the
/hptc_cluster file system on an HP SFS server to provide failover capabilities.
Thus, if you want this file system located on an HP SFS server, you installed the HP SFS software
as described in “HP StorageWorks Scalable File Share” (page 78), and you must mount
/hptc_cluster now. The SFS Client Installation and User Guide describes how to mount the
/hptc_cluster file system on an HP SFS file system.
Create and Mount the /hptc_cluster File System Locally
If you intend to put the /hptc_cluster file system on a local disk, you must create and mount
the /hptc_cluster file system now on a local disk and partition of your choice.
Remember to reformat the file system using the appropriate utility (such as mkfs) to clear out
old data.
3.7.9 Modify Workstation Model Names in the Database
This task is optional. Perform this task if the hardware configuration contains HP xw8400 or
xw9400 workstations. Omit this task if the hardware configuration does not contain these models
of HP workstations.
Follow this procedure to correctly identify HP xw8400 or xw9400 workstations in the configuration
and management database:
1. Begin this procedure as the root user on the head node.
2. Change to the following directory:
# cd /opt/hptc/config/sbin
3. Modify the workstation model name in the database. The node_list in the command
identifies the nodes that are the workstations. You can determine the workstation node
names based on their cable position on the Administration switch.
Specify the node_list in the format, node_prefix[n-n], where n is the node number.
For example, prefix[1-3,7,8].
The command depends on the workstation model:
• Enter the following command to change the name of xw8400 workstations:
# ./modify_node_type "hp workstation xw8200" \
"HP xw8400 Workstation" node_list
• Enter the following command to change the name of xw9400 workstations:
# ./modify_node_type "hp workstation xw9300" \
"HP xw9400 Workstation" node_list
3.7.10 Enable Software RAID-0 or RAID-1 on Client Nodes
This task is optional. Perform this task only if you want to configure software RAID-0 or RAID-1
on client nodes.
