Installing LifeKeeper
Use the installation instructions in the planning and installation guide for the specific
LifeKeeper product you are installing. For additional information, refer to the
LifeKeeper for Linux Release Notes.
IMPORTANT: The steeleye-lkCCISS-<LifeKeeper Version> package is required for Linux
clustering. Be sure to select this option when selecting packages to install.
IMPORTANT: Do not install the CCISS driver during the LifeKeeper for Linux installation
procedure. Always use the CCISS driver provided by HP. The CCISS driver and the CCISS
package installed with LifeKeeper are different, and both are required.
Validating the LifeKeeper Cluster Configuration
After the systems are configured and the resource hierarchy tree is functional from
within LifeKeeper, test the system failover capability.
To test failover:
1. Run the LifeKeeper console GUI on server node B. The console screen should
show server node A as active and server node B in standby.
2. Right-click server node B and select In Service. A popup window appears while
the scripts are run to switch server node B into service as the active system.
3. After server node B is active, right-click server node A and select In Service. A
popup window appears while the scripts are run to switch server node A into
service as the active system.
