Sun Cluster 2.2 Data Services Update: Lotus Domino 4.6.3

How to Install and Configure Sun Cluster HA for Lotus

  1. On each cluster node that will be running Sun Cluster HA for Lotus, run the hadsconfig(1M) command to configure the data service.

    Use the hadsconfig(1M) command to create, edit, and delete instances of Lotus Domino and partitioned servers. Multiple instances of Lotus Domino or partitioned servers can be configured to run under Sun Cluster HA for Lotus. See "Configuration Parameters for Sun Cluster HA for Lotus" for information on input you will need to supply to the hadsconfig(1M) command.

    See the hadsconfig(1M) man page for details.


    # hadsconfig

  2. Register and activate Sun Cluster HA for Lotus using the hareg(1M) command.

    The hareg(1M) command adds the Sun Cluster HA for Lotus data service to the Cluster Configuration Database, performs a cluster reconfiguration, and starts all of your Lotus Domino servers. Run this command on only one node:


    # hareg -s -r lotus
    ...
    # hareg -y lotus
    

  3. Verify the Sun Cluster HA for Lotus configuration.

    Log in as notes and verify the configuration by starting and stopping the Lotus Domino server on one of the cluster nodes:


    phys-hahost1# /opt/lotus/bin/server
    ...
    phys-hahost1# /opt/lotus/bin/server -q
    

    You can test more of the configuration by starting the cluster, mastering the logical hosts from various physical hosts, and then starting and stopping the Lotus Domino server from those physical hosts. For example:


    phys-hahost1# scadmin startcluster phys-hahost1 clustername
    phys-hahost2# scadmin startnode clustername
    phys-hahost1# haswitch phys-hahost2 hahost1 hahost2
    

    Log in as user notes, and stop and start the Lotus Domino server from the Lotus Domino data directory. For example:


    phys-hahost2# cd /hahost1/data_directory
    phys-hahost2# /opt/lotus/bin/server
    ...
    phys-hahost2# /opt/lotus/bin/server -q
    


    Note -

    If any of the Lotus Domino instances fail to start, make sure that user notes has permission to access the data directories and data files, then start the instances.


    This completes the configuration and activation of Sun Cluster HA for Lotus.
