Identifying the Clustering Components

---

This task is part of the Process of Installing the Clustering Feature.

A machine can host one Siebel Analytics Server, one cluster controller, or one of each. The machines acting as the primary and secondary cluster controllers need to be on the same subnet as the other machines in the cluster. These machines monitor the operational configuration of the servers in the cluster and assign session requests within the cluster.

To identify the clustering components

1. Identify the computer that hosts the primary Cluster Controller and, optionally, which computer hosts the secondary Cluster Controller.

   See the parameters PRIMARY_CONTROLLER and SECONDARY_CONTROLLER in NQClusterConfig.INI File Reference.

2. Identify each computer that hosts a clustered Siebel Analytics Server.

   See the parameter SERVERS in NQClusterConfig.INI File Reference.

3. Identify a Domain account under which all clustered Siebel Analytics Servers and Cluster Controllers runs.

   The Domain account must have the following characteristics:

   • Membership in the local Windows Administrators group on each computer in the cluster.

     NOTE:  Do not use the LocalSystem account.

   • Read and write access to the repository publishing directory (specified in the parameter REPOSITORY_PUBLISHING_DIRECTORY in NQClusterConfig.INI File Reference).
   • The Log On as a service right.

     NOTE:  Members of the Administrators group do not have this right by default. See the section Granting the Log On as a Service Right.
