For information about the requirements for the cluster private transport, see Interconnect Requirements and Restrictions in Sun Cluster 3.1 - 3.2 Hardware Administration Manual for Solaris OS.
You can also accomplish this procedure by using the Sun Cluster Manager GUI. See the Sun Cluster Manager online help for more information.
The phys-schost# prompt reflects a global-cluster prompt. Perform this procedure on a global cluster.
This procedure provides the long forms of the Sun Cluster commands. Most commands also have short forms. Except for the long and short forms of the command names, the commands are identical. For a list of the commands and their short forms, see Appendix B, Sun Cluster Object-Oriented Commands.
Ensure that the physical cluster transport cables are installed.
For the procedure on installing a cluster transport cable, see the Sun Cluster 3.1 - 3.2 Hardware Administration Manual for Solaris OS.
Become superuser on any node in the cluster.
Start the clsetup utility.
# clsetup |
The Main Menu is displayed.
Type the number that corresponds to option for displaying the Cluster Interconnect Menu.
If your configuration uses SCI adapters, do not accept the default when you are prompted for the adapter connections (the port name) during the “Add” portion of this procedure. Instead, provide the port name (0, 1, 2, or 3) found on the Dolphin switch, to which the node is physically cabled.
Type the number that corresponds to the option for adding a transport cable .
Follow the instructions and type the requested information.
Type the number that corresponds to the option for adding the transport adapter to a node.
Follow the instructions and type the requested information.
Type the number that corresponds to the option for adding the transport switch.
Follow the instructions and type the requested information.
Verify that the cluster transport cable, transport adapter, or transport switch is added.

The following example shows how to add a transport cable, transport adapter, or transport switch to a node by using the clsetup utility.
[Ensure that the physical cable is installed.] [Start the clsetup utility:] # clsetup [Select Cluster interconnect] [Select either Add a transport cable, Add a transport adapter to a node, or Add a transport switch.} [Answer the questions when prompted.] [You Will Need: ] [Information: Example:[ node names phys-schost-1 adapter names qfe2 switch names hub2 transport type dlpi [Verify that the clinterconnect command completed successfully:]Command completed successfully. Quit the clsetup Cluster Interconnect Menu and Main Menu. [Verify that the cable, adapter, and switch are added:] # clinterconnect show phys-schost-1:qfe2,hub2 ===Transport Cables === Transport Cable: phys-schost-1:qfe2@0,hub2 Endpoint1: phys-schost-2:qfe0@0 Endpoint2: ethernet-1@2 ????
