Before You Begin
Ensure that you have completed the following tasks:
Read the guidelines and requirements in the following sections:
Set up the primary and secondary clusters as described in Connecting and Installing the Clusters.
The node nodeA is the first node of the primary cluster. For a reminder of which node is nodeA, see Example Cluster Configuration.
nodeA# metaset -s nfsset a -h nodeA nodeB
nodeA# metaset -s nfsset -a /dev/did/dsk/d6 /dev/did/dsk/d7
nodeA# metaset -s nfsset -a -m nodeA nodeB
Create two components of a mirror:
nodeA# metainit -s nfsset d101 1 1 /dev/did/dsk/d6s2 nodeA# metainit -s nfsset d102 1 1 /dev/did/dsk/d7s2
Create the mirror with one of the components:
nodeA# metainit -s nfsset d100 -m d101
Attach the other component to the mirror and allow it to synchronize:
nodeA# metattach -s nfsset d100 d102
Create soft partitions from the mirror, following these examples:
d200 - The NFS data (master volume):
nodeA# metainit -s nfsset d200 -p d100 50G
d201 - The point-in-time copy volume for the NFS data:
nodeA# metainit -s nfsset d201 -p d100 50G
d202 - The point-in-time bitmap volume:
nodeA# metainit -s nfsset d202 -p d100 10M
d203 - The remote shadow bitmap volume:
nodeA# metainit -s nfsset d203 -p d100 10M
d204 - The volume for the Oracle Solaris Cluster SUNW.NFS configuration information:
nodeA# metainit -s nfsset d204 -p d100 100M
nodeA# yes | newfs /dev/md/nfsset/rdsk/d200 nodeA# yes | newfs /dev/md/nfsset/rdsk/d204
