3.9. Adding a Cluster Service to the Cluster
To add a cluster service to the cluster, follow the steps in this section. The starting point of the
procedure is at the cluster-specific page that you navigate to from Choose a cluster to
administer displayed on the cluster tab.
1. At the detailed menu for the cluster (below the clusters menu), click Services. Clicking Services
causes the display of services in the center of the page and causes the display of menu items for
services configuration: Add a Service and Configure a Service.
2. Click Add a Service. Clicking Add a Service causes the Add a Service page to be displayed.
3. On the Add a Service page, at the Service name text box, type the name of the service.
Below the Service name text box is an checkbox labeled Automatically start this service.
The checkbox is checked by default. When the checkbox is checked, the service is started
automatically when a cluster is started and running. If the checkbox is not checked, the service
must be started manually any time the cluster comes up from the stopped state.
Note
Use a descriptive name that clearly distinguishes the service from other services in the
cluster.
4. Add a resource to the service; click Add a resource to this service. Clicking Add a
resource to this service causes the display of two drop-down boxes: Add a new local
resource and Use an exist ing global resource. Adding a new local resource adds a resource
that is available only to this service. T he process of adding a local resource is the same as
adding a global resource described in Section 3.8, “Adding Cluster Resources”. Adding a global
resource adds a resource that has been previously added as a global resource (refer to
Section 3.8, “Adding Cluster Resources”).
5. At the drop-down box of either Add a new local resource or Use an existing global
resource, select the resource to add and configure it according to the options presented. (T he
options are the same as described in Section 3.8, “Adding Cluster Resources”.)
Note
If you are adding a Samba-service resource, connect a Samba-service resource directly to
the service, not to a resource within a service.
6. If you want to add resources to that resource, click Add a child. Clicking Add a child
causes the display of additional options to local and global resources. You can continue adding
children resources to the resource to suit your requirements. T o view children resources, click the
triangle icon to the left of Show Children.
7. When you have completed adding resources to the service, and have completed adding children
resources to resources, click Submit. Clicking Subm it causes a progress page to be displayed
followed by a page displaying the added service (and other services).
