Geographic Edition Administration Tools

You can perform administrative tasks on a cluster that is running Geographic Edition software by using a graphical user interface (GUI) or the command-line interface (CLI).

The procedures in this guide describe how to perform administrative tasks by using the CLI.

Graphical User Interface

Oracle Solaris Cluster software supports Oracle Solaris Cluster Manager, a GUI tool that you can use to perform various administrative tasks on your cluster. For specific information about how to use Oracle Solaris Cluster Manager, see the Oracle Solaris Cluster online help.


Note - To administer Geographic Edition software by using the Oracle Solaris Cluster Manager – Geographic Edition GUI, ensure that the root passwords are the same on all nodes of both clusters in the partnership.


You can only use the GUI to administer Geographic Edition software after the software infrastructure has been enabled by using the geoadm start command. Use a shell to run the geoadm start and geoadm stop commands. For information about enabling and disabling the Geographic Edition infrastructure, see Chapter 3, Administering the Geographic Edition Infrastructure.

The GUI does not support creating custom heartbeats outside of a partnership. If you want to specify a custom heartbeat in a partnership join operation, use the CLI to run the geops join-partnership command.

To start the GUI, go to the following URL from any Java-enabled and Javascript-enabled browser, and log in as root.


Note - RBAC is not supported in the GUI.
