Before You Start
Use this section in conjunction with the worksheets in the Sun Cluster 3.0 Release
Notes as a checklist before performing installation and configuration.
Prior to starting your installation, consider these questions.
• Do you plan to run multiple Directory Server instances on the same node?
If so, you may choose to set
nsslapd-listenhost on cn=config to the
appropriate networkresource (a logical host name, such as
dirserv.example.com) as the IP address for each instance. Directory Server
default behavior is to listen on all network interfaces.
• Do you run multiple data services in your Sun Cluster configuration?
You may set up multiple data services in any order, with one exception: If you
use Sun Cluster HA for DNS, you must set it up before setting up Sun Cluster
HA for Directory Server.
Table C-1 summarizes the Sun Cluster HA for Directory Server installation and
configuration process.
