Sun Cluster Data Service for MySQL Guide for Solaris OS

ProcedureExample: Configuring the Zone

In this task you will install the Solaris Container on phys-schost-1 and phys-schost-2. Therefore perform this procedure on both hosts.

  1. On local cluster storage of , create a directory for the zone root path.

    This example presents a sparse root zone. You can use a whole root zone if that type better suits your configuration.


    phys-schost-1# mkdir /zones
    
  2. Create a temporary file, for example /tmp/x, and include the following entries:


    create -b
    set zonepath=/zones/clu1
    set autoboot=true
    set pool=pool_default
    add inherit-pkg-dir
    set dir=/lib
    end
    add inherit-pkg-dir
    set dir=/platform
    end
    add inherit-pkg-dir
    set dir=/sbin
    end
    add inherit-pkg-dir
    set dir=/usr
    end
    add net
    set address=zone-1 Choose a different addtress (zone-2) on the second node.
    set physical=hme0
    end
    add attr
    set name=comment
    set type=string
    set value="MySQL cluster zone" Put your desired zone name between the quotes here.
    end
  3. Configure the failover zone, using the file you created.


    phys-schost-1# zonecfg -z clu1 -f /tmp/x
    
  4. Install the zone.


    phys-schost-1# zoneadm -z clu1 install
    
  5. Log in to the zone.


    phys-schost-1# zlogin -C clu1
    
  6. Open a new window to the same node and boot the zone?


    phys-schost-1# zoneadm -z clu1 boot
    
  7. Close this terminal window and disconnect from the zone console.
