HPUX : Adding CLuster node in Quorum Server.

If you’re using a quorum server, authorize the nodes in the cluster to the quorum server.

Login to the quorum server and update the file /etc/cmcluster/qs_authfile

Save a copy and add the FQDN of main interface and the management interface of every node in the cluster to the qs_authfile file.

 

After modifying this file, you must force the quorum server to re-read it:

# /usr/lbin/qs  -update

 

Create the cluster in a semi-automated fashion. The command arguments are different if we’re using a cluster lock device or a quorum server. Execute it first in test mode to verify if you got the arguments correct:

·         Cluster lock device usage:
# cmdeploycl -t -c <cluster>  -N $SGCONF/<cluster>_network -n «PrimaryNode» -n «FailoverNode» -b –L /dev/<vglock>:</dev/cdisk/lockdisk>

·         Quorum server usage:

# cmdeploycl -t -c <cluster>  -N $SGCONF/<cluster>_network -n «PrimaryNode» -n «FailoverNode» –q < FQDN main quorum server> <FQDN management interface quorum server>

When the cmdeploycl command finishes you should see a message like:

Preview complete. To apply changes, run cmdeploycl  without -t option.
