How to Uninstall Sun Cluster Software To Correct Installation Problems (5/02)

The following feature was introduced in the Sun Cluster 3.0 5/02 update release and applies to this update and all subsequent updates to Sun Cluster 3.0 software.

Perform this procedure if the installed node cannot join the cluster or if you need to correct configuration information, for example, the transport adapters.

only -

If the node has already joined the cluster and is no longer in install mode (see Step 11 of "How to Perform Post-Installation Setup" in the Sun Cluster 3.0 12/01 Software Installation Guide), do not perform this procedure. Instead, go to "How to Uninstall Sun Cluster Software From a Cluster Node (5/02)".

  1. Attempt to reinstall the node.

    Certain failed installations can be corrected simply by repeating the Sun Cluster software installation on the node. If you have already tried to reinstall the node without success, proceed to Step 2 to uninstall Sun Cluster software from the node.

  2. Become superuser on an active cluster member other than the node you will uninstall.

  3. From the active cluster member, add the node you intend to uninstall to the cluster's node authentication list.


    # /usr/cluster/bin/scconf -a -T node=nodename

    -a

    Add

    -T

    Specifies authentication options

    node=nodename

    Specifies the name of the node to add to the authentication list

    Alternately, you can use the scsetup(1M) utility. See "How to Add a Cluster Node to the Authorized Node List" in the Sun Cluster 3.0 12/01 System Administration Guide for procedures.

  4. Become superuser on the node you intend to uninstall.

  5. Reboot the node into non-cluster mode.


    # shutdown -g0 -y -i0
ok boot -x

  6. Uninstall the node.


    # cd /
# /usr/cluster/bin/scinstall -r

    See the scinstall(1M) man page for more information.

  7. Reinstall Sun Cluster software on the node.

    Refer to TABLE 2-1 in the Sun Cluster 3.0 12/01 Software Installation Guide for the list of all installation tasks and the order in which to perform them.
