Appendix C Using GigabitEthernet in a Cluster
Environment
This Appendix outlines the supported functions and setup procedure for the FUJITSU PCI
GigabitEthernet 3.0 interface when used in a cluster environment.
C.1 Cluster Environment Support
The FUJITSU PCI GigabitEthernet 3.0 adapter supports the following cluster features:
● Operation standby mode
● 1:n operation standby mode
● Mutual standby mode
● TCP/IP communication (public LAN)
● Use of a VLAN interface by SynfinityCluster private LAN or PRIMECLUSTER cluster
interconnect cannot be performed.
● A JumboFrame function can be used in SynfinityCluster private LAN or PRIMECLUSTER
cluster interconnect. When you change MTU size from a default value (9000), please
set up by the fjgi.conf file. For details, please refer to "Method 3: How to specify
by fjgi.conf" of "
3.3.2 JumboFrame Setup
".
The following table shows the supported failover mode with the FUJITSU PCI GigabitEthernet
interfaces in a cluster system.
● SynfinityCluster
Failover Mode Support Status
IP address Supported
MAC address Supported
IP address + MAC address Supported (version 2.0.1 and later)
● PRIMECLUSTER
Failover Mode Support Status
IP address Supported
MAC address Supported (version 4.1A10 and later)
IP address + MAC address Supported (version 4.1A10 and later)
C.2 Cluster Environment Setup Procedure
Set up the cluster environment in the same way as for an Ethernet driver (i.e. hme driver).
Follow "Setting up the Network" in the SynfinityCluster manual or PRIMECLUSTER manual.
Note that the GigabitEthernet driver resource name is "fjgi".
