After setting up the clustering installation on an active node, you can complete installation of Ops Center Automator on the management server on a standby node in a cluster configuration.
- In the cluster management software, move the group containing the Ops Center Automator resources to the standby node by right-clicking the group, selecting Move, and then selecting either Select Node or Move this service or application to another node.
-
If you created the cluster
environment using another Common Component product, use the following command to
take offline and disable failover for the cluster group in which Common
Component product services are registered:
Common-Component-installation-directory\ClusterSetup\hcmds64clustersrvstate /soff /r cluster-group-name
where
r - specifies the name of the group in which the Common Component product services are registered. If the group name contains spaces, you must enclose the group name in quotation marks ("). For example, if the group name is Automator cluster, specify "Automator cluster".
-
Complete a new installation of
Ops Center Automator on the standby node.
Before installing Ops Center Automator on the standby node, be aware of the following requirements:
- You must install Ops Center Automator in the same location as on the active node.
- If other Common Component products already exist and are active in the cluster environment, specify the logical host name (the virtual host name allocated to the cluster management IP address) as the IP Address or Host Name of the management server. If there are no other Common Component products in the cluster environment, specify the IP address or the host name of the standby node as the IP Address or Host Name of the management server.
- Register the licenses for the products you plan to use.
-
If you already have a Common
Component product configured within the cluster, skip to the next step. If
Ops Center Automator is the first Common Component product in the cluster, add
the following information to a blank text file:
mode=standby virtualhost=logical-host-name onlinehost=active-node-host-name standbyhost=standby-node-host-name
Save the file as cluster.conf in Common-Component-installation-folder\conf.
Note: On a standby node, you must specify standby for mode. - Use the following command to ensure that the Ops Center Automator service is stopped:
hcmds64srv /stop /server AutomationWebService
- Run the setupcluster /exportpath command where the exportpath is the same path specified in step 7 of Setting up Ops Center Automator clustering on an active node.
