Figure 17.2 Setup Procedure When Using the Network Parameter Auto-configuration Function
Note
[Physical Servers]
The network parameter auto-configuration function cannot be used on the admin LAN. If it is used, deployment commands may fail when
deploying new servers may fail, or communication issues may occur during collection or deployment of cloning images.
[Linux]
When using LAN redundancy, cancel any network redundancy settings that were made on managed servers using PRIMECLUSTER
Global Link Services before deploying new servers.
If not cancelled, deployment commands may fail when deploying new servers.
Once the deployment of new servers has completed, redundancy network configurations (for the admin LAN or other networks) that are
not handled by the network parameter auto-configuration feature should be set up manually.
PRIMECLUSTER Global Link Services cannot be used to enable admin LAN redundancy on servers running SUSE Linux Enterprise
Server or Oracle Enterprise Linux operating systems.
Setup Procedure
Use the following procedure to set up network parameters for a public LAN:
Point
Using a specific managed server (reference server) to collect and update cloning images is recommended in order to centrally manage the
network parameters definition files.
1. Definition File Settings
This section explains how to setup the following definition files.
- FJSVrcx.conf
- ipaddr.conf
Create those definition files under the following folder on the reference server:
- 136 -
