This command creates a server pool.
The following table shows the available options for this command.
Option | Description |
---|---|
| The virtual IP address for the server pool. |
|
Whether to enable a clustered server pool. If this
parameter is not included, the default is
|
| The file system to use for the server pool file system. |
| The physical disk to use for the server pool file system. Note You cannot create a server pool file system on a local physical disk as the server pool file system needs to be accessible by all servers in the server pool. |
| The key mapping to be used when connecting to a virtual machine's console. |
| Whether to enable secure migration of virtual machines using SSL. |
| The policy by which virtual machines are located when created in the server pool. If none is provided, the CURRENT_SERVER option is used by default. |
| A name to identify the server pool. |
| Optional description for the server pool. |
Any create command only creates a single instance of an object, and therefore only accepts a single object instance as an attribute. Providing more than one object of the same attribute type as a parameter always results in the last attribute value taking precedence.
Example A.34 Creating a clustered server pool
OVM> create ServerPool virtualIP=10.172.77.195 clusterEnable=yes \ filesystem=nfs:/mnt/vol1/poolfs01 name=MyServerPool description='Clustered server pool'
Example A.35 Creating an unclustered server pool
OVM> create ServerPool virtualIP=10.172.77.195 clusterEnable=no name=MyServerPool \ description='Unclustered server pool'
