This procedure describes how to use the scrgadm(1M) command to register and configure Sun Cluster HA for Sybase ASE.
This procedure includes creating the SUNW.HAStoragePlus resource type. This resource type synchronizes actions between HAStorage and Sun Cluster HA for Sybase ASE and enables you to use a highly available local file system. Sun Cluster HA for Sybase ASE is disk intensive, and therefore you should configure the SUNW.HAStoragePlus resource type.
For more information about the SUNW.HAStoragePlus resource type, see the following documentation:
SUNW.HAStoragePlus(5) man page
Other options also enable you to register and configure the data service. For details about these options, see Tools for Data Service Resource Administration in Sun Cluster Data Services Planning and Administration Guide for Solaris OS.
To perform this procedure, you must have the following information.
The names of the cluster nodes that master the data service.
The network resource that clients use to access the data service. You typically configure the IP address when you install the cluster. For information about planning the Sun Cluster environment and the installation of the Solaris software, see Chapter 1, Planning the Sun Cluster Configuration, in Sun Cluster Software Installation Guide for Solaris OS.
The path to the Sybase ASE application installation.
Perform the following steps on one cluster member.
Become superuser on a cluster member.
Run the scrgadm command to register resource types for Sun Cluster HA for Sybase ASE.
# scrgadm -a -t SUNW.sybase |
Adds the resource type for the data service
Specifies the resource type name that is predefined for your data service
Register the SUNW.HAStoragePlus resource type with the cluster.
# scrgadm -a -t SUNW.HAStoragePlus |
Create the resource sybase-hastp-rs of type SUNW.HAStoragePlus.
# scrgadm -a -j sybase-hastp-rs -g sybase-rg -t SUNW.HAStoragePlus \ -x GlobalDevicePaths=sybase-device-group1,/dev/global/dsk/dl \ -x FilesystemMountPoints=/global/sybase-inst \ -x AffinityOn=TRUE |
AffinityOn must be set to TRUE
and
the local file system must reside on global disk groups to be failover.
Run the scrgadm command to complete the following tasks and bring the resource group sybase-rg online on a cluster node.
Moving the resource group into a managed state
Bringing the resource group online
This node becomes the primary for device group sybase-set1 and raw device /dev/global/dsk/d1. Device groups that are associated with file systems such as /global/sybase-inst are also made primaries on this node.
# scrgadm -Z -g sybase-rg |
Create Sybase ASE application resources in the failover resource group.
# scrgadm -a -j resource -g resource-group \ -t SUNW.sybase \ -x Environment_File=environment-file-path \ -x Adaptive_Server_Name=adaptive-server-name \ -x Backup_Server_Name=backup-server-name \ -x Text_Server_Name=text-server-name \ -x Monitor_Server_Name=monitor-server-name \ -x Adaptive_Server_Log_File=log-file-path \ -x Stop_File=stop-file-path \ -x Connect_string=user/passwd \ -y resource_dependencies=storageplus-resource |
Specifies the resource name to add.
Specifies the resource group name into which the RGM places the resources.
Specifies the resource type to add.
Sets the name of the environment file.
Sets the name of the adaptive server.
Sets the name of the backup server.
Sets the name of the text server.
Sets the name of the monitor server.
Sets the path to the log file for the adaptive server.
Sets the path to the stop file.
Specifies the user name and password that the fault monitor uses to connect to the database.
You do not have to specify extension properties that have default values. For more information, see Setting Sun Cluster HA for Sybase ASE Extension Properties.
Enable the resource and fault monitoring.
Sybase start logs print to the console when the Sybase servers start. If you do not want these messages to print to the console, update the appropriate RUN files to redirect these messages to another file.
# scswitch -Z -g resource-group |
After you register and configure Sun Cluster HA for Sybase ASE, go to Verifying the Sun Cluster HA for Sybase ASE Installation and Configuration.
