When setting up Ops Center Automator in a cluster environment, you must use the cluster management software to verify the current environment settings and to configure additional settings.
Use the cluster management software to verify the following items before setting up Ops Center Automator in a cluster environment:
- Verify whether a group exists in which other Common Component product services are registered.
If a group in which Common Component services are registered already exists, use that group. Verify that the group consists only of resources related to Common Component products.
If no group in which Common Component services are registered exists, use the cluster management software to create a group to register the Ops Center Automator service.
Note: Group names cannot contain the following characters: ! " % & ) * ^ | ; = , < > - Verify that the group in which you plan to register services includes the shared disk and client access point that can be inherited between the active and standby nodes. The client access point is the cluster management IP address and the logical host name.
- Verify that you can allocate, delete, and monitor resources by using the cluster management software without any problems.
Services that are used in a cluster environment can be failed over together by registering them as a group in the cluster management software. These groups might be referred to by different names, such as "resource groups" or "roles," depending on the versions of the cluster management software and the OS.
