Configuration Restrictions

This paragraph provides a list of software and hardware configuration restrictions that apply to Sun Cluster HA for N1 Service Provisioning System only.

For restrictions that apply to all data services, see the Sun Cluster Release Notes.

• Sun Cluster HA for N1 Service Provisioning System can only be configured as a failover data service — Each component of N1 Grid Service Provisioning System can operate as a failover data service only. Therefore, all the components of the Sun Cluster HA for N1 Service Provisioning System can only be configured to run as failover data services.

• Install the N1 Grid Service Provisioning System components on shared storage — The Master Server and the Local Distributor have to be installed on the shared storage. The remote agents which are configured to bind on the logical host have to be installed on the shared storage as well.

• Configure a Sun Cluster resource for the N1 Grid Service Provisioning System Remote Agent for raw and ssl communication only —The Master Server will start and stop the Remote Agent on every connection, as long as the Remote agent is configured for ssh communication. In this case, there is no Sun Cluster resource needed. In the ssh scenario, you have to install the N1 Grid Service Provisioning System Remote Agent on the shared storage and copy the ssh keys from one node to the remaining nodes of the cluster. This assures that all the cluster nodes have the same ssh personality.

Your data service configuration might not be supported if you do not adhere to these restrictions.
