Configuring the virtual IP of the cluster
You can configure the virtual IP of the cluster to use to connect from the Cluster Manager (Java Console), Arctera InfoScale Operations Manager, or to specify in the RemoteGroup resource.
See the Cluster Server Administrator's Guide for information on the Cluster Manager.
See the Cluster Server Bundled Agents Reference Guide for information on the RemoteGroup agent.
To configure the virtual IP of the cluster
-
Review the required information to configure the virtual IP of the cluster.
-
When the system prompts whether you want to configure the virtual IP, enter
y. -
Confirm whether you want to use the discovered public NIC on the first system.
Do one of the following:
-
If the discovered NIC is the one to use, press
Enter. -
If you want to use a different NIC, type the name of a NIC to use and press
Enter.Active NIC devices discovered on sys1: en0 en1
Enter the NIC for Virtual IP of the Cluster to use on sys1:
[b,q,?](en0 en1)-
Confirm whether you want to use the same public NIC on all nodes.
Do one of the following:-
If all nodes use the same public NIC, enter
y. -
If unique NICs are used, enter
nand enter a NIC for each node.
Is en0 en1 to be the public NIC used by all systems
[y,n,q,b,?] (y) -
-
Enter the virtual IP address for the cluster.
You can enter either an IPv4 address or an IPv6 address.
| For IPv4: | - Enter the virtual IP address. lang=txt Enter the Virtual IP address for the Cluster: \[b,q,?\] 192.168.1.16 |
|---|---|
| - Confirm the default netmask or enter another one: lang=txt Enter the netmask for IP 192.168.1.16: \[b,q,?\] (255.255.240.0) | |
| - Enter the NetworkHosts IP addresses that are separated with spaces for checking the connections. lang=txt Enter the NetworkHosts IP addresses, separated by spaces: \[b,q,?\] 192.168.1.17 | |
| - Verify and confirm the Cluster Virtual IP information. lang=txt Cluster Virtual IP verification: NIC: en0 en1 IP: 192.168.1.16 Netmask: 255.255.240.0 lang=txt NetworkHosts: 192.168.1.17 lang=txt Is this information correct? \[y,n,q\] (y) | |
| For IPv6 | - Enter the virtual IP address. lang=txt Enter the Virtual IP address for the Cluster: \[b,q,?\] 2001:454e:205a:110:203:baff:feee:10 |
| - Enter the prefix for the virtual IPv6 address you provided. For example: lang=txt Enter the Prefix for IP 2001:454e:205a:110:203:baff:feee:10: \[b,q,?\] 64 | |
| - Enter the NetworkHosts IP addresses that are separated with spaces for checking the connections. lang=txt Enter the NetworkHosts IP addresses, separated by spaces: \[b,q,?\] 2001:db8::1 2001:db8::2 | |
| - Verify and confirm the Cluster Virtual IP information. lang=txt Cluster Virtual IP verification: NIC: en0 en1 IP: 2001:454e:205a:110:203:baff:feee:10 Prefix: 64 lang=txt NetworkHosts: 2001:db8::1 2001:db8::2 lang=txt Is this information correct? \[y,n,q\] (y) |
