Sun Cluster 3.1 Data Service for Siebel Guide

How to Register and Configure Sun Cluster HA for Siebel as a Failover Data Service

Use this procedure to configure Sun Cluster HA for Siebel as a failover data service. This procedure assumes that you installed the data service packages during your initial Sun Cluster installation. If you did not install the Sun Cluster HA for Siebel packages as part of your initial Sun Cluster installation, see How to Install the Sun Cluster HA for Siebel Packages by Using the scinstall Utility to install the data service packages. Otherwise, use this procedure to configure the Sun Cluster HA for Siebel.

  1. Become superuser on one of the nodes in the cluster that hosts the application server.

  2. Add the resource type for the Siebel gateway.


    # scrgadm -a -t SUNW.sblgtwy
    
  3. Create a failover resource group to hold the logical hostname and the Siebel gateway resources.


    Note –

    If you have already created a resource group, added the logical hostname resource, and brought the resource group online when you completed the How to Prepare the Nodes procedure, you may skip to Step 6.



    # scrgadm -a -g gateway-rg [-h nodelist]
    
  4. Add the logical hostname resource.

    Ensure that logical hostname matches the value of the SIEBEL_GATEWAY environment variable that is set in the siebenv.sh file of the Siebel gateway, and also the Siebel server installations.


    # scrgadm -a -L -g gateway-rg -l logical_hostname
    
  5. Bring the resource group online.


    # scswitch -Z -g gateway-rg
    
  6. Verify that siebenv.sh file exists under gateway_root.

    The owner of this file launches the Siebel gateway server when the Siebel gateway resource is brought online.

  7. Create the Siebel gateway resource.


    # scrgadm -a -j sblgtwy-rs -g gateway-rg \
    -t SUNW.sblgtwy  \
    -x Confdir_list=gateway_root
    
  8. Enable the Siebel gateway resource.


    # scswitch -e -j sblgtwy-rs
    
  9. Verify that the Siebel resource group and the Siebel gateway resource are online by using scstat —g and ps —ef.
