Conﬁguring HyperFabric

Conﬁguring HMP for Transparent Local Failover Support

Chapter 4106

On node B:

1. How many HyperFabric adapters are installed on the node?

2. Do you want this node to interoperate with nodes running any

HyperFabric versions earlier than B.11.00.11 or B.11.11.01? (n)

You must answer ‘no’ if you want to run applications using HMP

(Local Failover or Non-Local Failover) for communication over

HyperFabric. In that case, all nodes in the cluster must be running

version B.11.00.11 (or) B.11.11.01 (or) later version of HyperFabric

software.

3. What is the IP address of the ﬁrst adapter (clic0)? (192.0.0.2)

4. What is the subnet mask of the ﬁrst adapter? (255.255.255.0)

If you do not specify a value for this, a default mask is chosen. You

will most likely just accept the default. However, in this example, we

are showing a value for the subnet mask just to illustrate the

correlation between the dummy information in Figure 4-10 and

where that information is speciﬁed or generated during clic_init

and SAM.

5. What is the IP address of the second adapter (clic1)? (192.0.8.4)

6. What is the subnet mask of the second adapter? (255.255.255.0)

7. Do you want to conﬁgure Local Failover on this node? (y)

Enter ’y’ if you are using Oracle RAC with HMP. For MPI

applications, enter ’n’.

8. Select any two of the following clic adapters for CARD_PAIR[0]:

clic0

clic1

Enter the ﬁrst clic adapter from above listed adapters: (clic0)

Enter the second clic adapter from above listed adapters: (clic1)

9. Do you want to enable switch management? (n)
