This procedure describes how to use the Sun Cluster maintenance commands 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.
On a cluster member, become superuser or assume a role that provides solaris.cluster.modify and solaris.cluster.admin RBAC authorizations.
Run the clresourcetype command to register resource types for Sun Cluster HA for Sybase ASE.
# clresourcetype register SUNW.sybase |
Register the SUNW.HAStoragePlus resource type with the cluster.
# clresourcetype register SUNW.HAStoragePlus |
Create the resource sybase-hastp-rs of type SUNW.HAStoragePlus.
# clresource create -g sybase-rg -t SUNW.HAStoragePlus \ -p GlobalDevicePaths=sybase-device-group1,/dev/global/dsk/dl \ -p FilesystemMountPoints=/global/sybase-inst \ -p AffinityOn=TRUE sybase-hastp-rs |
The resource is created in the enabled state.
AffinityOn must be set to TRUE
and the local file system must reside on global disk groups to be failover.
Run the clresourcegroup 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.
# clresourcegroup online -M sybase-rg |
Create Sybase ASE application resources in the failover resource group.
# clresource create -g resource-group \ -t SUNW.sybase \ -p Environment_File=environment-file-path \ -p Adaptive_Server_Name=adaptive-server-name \ -p Backup_Server_Name=backup-server-name \ -p Text_Server_Name=text-server-name \ -p Monitor_Server_Name=monitor-server-name \ -p Adaptive_Server_Log_File=log-file-path \ -p Stop_File=stop-file-path \ -p Connect_string=user/passwd \ -p resource_dependencies=storageplus-resource \ -p Wait_for_Online=TRUE \ -p DB_Wait_List=db1, db2, ... resource |
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.
Specifies whether the START method has to wait for the database to be brought online before exiting.
Specifies the list of databases that need to be online before the resource can be brought online. The valid values are either an empty list (“ ”), ALL, or a list of databases.
Specifies the resource name to add.
The resource is created in the enabled state.
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.
After you register and configure Sun Cluster HA for Sybase ASE, go to Verifying the Sun Cluster HA for Sybase ASE Installation and Configuration.
