Synchronizing Site Configuration Information

Language:

Under normal circumstances, a membership change or a change to a site property is automatically propagated to all clusters in the site.

This section provides procedures to manually update site configuration information on the local cluster with configuration information from the remote site cluster. The local site configuration information is overwritten by information from the remote cluster.

How to Synchronize Site Configuration Information

Perform this procedure to update site configuration information on the local cluster.

Note - You can also use the Oracle Solaris Cluster Manager browser interface to perform this task. Click Sites, highlight the site name, and click Validate Site. For Oracle Solaris Cluster Manager log-in instructions, see How to Access Oracle Solaris Cluster Manager in Administering an Oracle Solaris Cluster 4.4 Configuration.

From a node of a site controller cluster, assume the root role or assume a role that is assigned the Geo Management rights profile.
For more information, see Disaster Recovery Framework Rights Profiles in Installing and Configuring the Disaster Recovery Framework for Oracle Solaris Cluster 4.4.
Note - If you use a role with Geo Management rights, ensure that the /var/cluster/geo ACLs are correct on each node of both partner clusters. If necessary, assume the root role on the cluster node and set the correct ACLs.
```
# chmod A+user:username:rwx:allow /var/cluster/geo
```
The /var/cluster/geo directory must have the correct access control lists (ACL) applied for compatibility between the Geo Management rights profile and data replication software.
Synchronize the site configuration information with the remote site cluster.
Site configuration information from the remote site cluster overwrites the site configuration information on the local cluster.
```
local-site-cluster-node# geosite update remote-site-cluster site
```
remote-site-cluster

The name of the remote site cluster whose site configuration information to import to the local site cluster. Both clusters must be configured in the same site.

site

The name of the site.
