Sun Cluster Quick Start Guide for Solaris OS

ProcedureHow to Install the Administrative Console

Before You Begin

Have the following available:

  1. Become superuser on the administrative console.

  2. Configure the preinstalled Solaris 10 11/06 software, if you have not already done so.

    For more information, see the Sun Ultra 20 Workstation Getting Started Guide (819–2148).

  3. Download, install, and configure Sun Update Connection.

    See http://www.sun.com/service/sunupdate/gettingstarted.html for details. Documentation for Sun Update Connection is available at http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/coll/1320.2.

  4. Download and apply any Solaris 10 patches by using Sun Update Connection.

  5. Load the Java Availability Suite DVD-ROM into the DVD-ROM drive.

  6. Change to the Solaris_sparc/Product/sun_cluster/Solaris_10/Packages/ directory.

  7. Install software packages for the Cluster Control Panel and man pages.


    admincon# pkgadd -d . SUNWccon SUNWscman
    
  8. Change to a directory that does not reside on the DVD-ROM and eject the DVD-ROM.


    host# cd /
    host# eject cdrom
    
  9. Create an /etc/cluster file that contains the cluster name and the two node names.


    admincon# vi /etc/clusters
    sccluster phys-sun phys-moon
  10. Create an /etc/serialports file that contains both node names and the hostname and port number that each node uses to connect to the management network.


    admincon# vi /etc/serialports
    phys-sun phys-sun 46
    phys-moon phys-moon 47
  11. Add the Sun Cluster PATH and MANPATH to the .cshrc user initialization file.

    • To the PATH entry, add /opt/SUNWcluster/bin.

    • To the MANPATH entry, add /opt/SUNWcluster/man and /usr/cluster/man.

  12. Initialize your modifications.


    admincon# cd
    admincon# source .cshrc
