Installation guide

2. Disable or relocate each service that is running on the node to be deleted:
Note
Repeat this step for each service that needs to be disabled or started on an-
other node.
a. Under Services on this Node, click the link for a service. Clicking that link cause a
configuration page for that service to be displayed.
b. On that page, at the Choose a taskdrop-down box, choose to either disable the ser-
vice are start it on another node and click Go.
c. Upon confirmation that the service has been disabled or started on another node, click
the cluster tab. Clicking the cluster tab causes the Choose a cluster to administer
page to be displayed.
d. At the Choose a cluster to administer page, click the link of the node to be deleted.
Clicking the link of the node to be deleted causes a page to be displayed for that link
showing how that node is configured.
3. On that page, at the Choose a taskdrop-down box, choose Delete this node and click Go.
When the node is deleted, a page is displayed that lists the nodes in the cluster. Check the
list to make sure that the node has been deleted.
7. Configuring a Failover Domain
A failover domain is a named subset of cluster nodes that are eligible to run a cluster service in
the event of a node failure. A failover domain can have the following characteristics:
• Unrestricted — Allows you to specify that a subset of members are preferred, but that a
cluster service assigned to this domain can run on any available member.
• Restricted — Allows you to restrict the members that can run a particular cluster service. If
none of the members in a restricted failover domain are available, the cluster service cannot
be started (either manually or by the cluster software).
• Unordered — When a cluster service is assigned to an unordered failover domain, the mem-
ber on which the cluster service runs is chosen from the available failover domain members
with no priority ordering.
• Ordered — Allows you to specify a preference order among the members of a failover do-
main. The member at the top of the list is the most preferred, followed by the second mem-
ber in the list, and so on.
