Section III Maintenance in<strong>for</strong>mation<br />

Changing the server configuration (add/delete)<br />

• In<strong>for</strong>mation on the switchable partition of the server to add which is displayed on the<br />

Details tab of Properties of the disk resource.<br />

• IP address of the server to add on the Parameter tab of Properties of the Nic Link<br />

Up/Down monitor resource (when using the Nic Link Up/Down monitor resource).<br />

Important:<br />

On the HBA tab of Properties of the server to add, set the SCSI controller and the HBA<br />

connected to the shared disk to be filtered. If the shared disk is connected when it has not<br />

been set to be filtered, data on the shared disk may be corrupted.<br />

11. Connect to another server in the cluster via the Web browser to start the WebManager, and<br />

suspend the cluster. When the server group configuration has been changed, stop the cluster.<br />

12. Select Upload the Configuration File from the File menu of the Builder, and reflect the<br />

cluster configuration data to the cluster.<br />

• When the message “There is the disk in<strong>for</strong>mation that is not configured. Are you sure<br />

you want automatic configuration?” appears, select Yes.<br />

13. Resume the cluster after restarting the Manager with the WebManager. If the cluster has<br />

been stopped, start it.<br />

Note:<br />

If the cluster is resumed by using the WebManager, the message “Failed to resume the<br />

cluster. Click the Reload button, or try again later.” is displayed, but ignore it. This<br />

message is displayed because the server to add is not suspended.<br />

14. Restart the service of the added server with the WebManager. When Off is selected <strong>for</strong> Auto<br />

Return in Cluster Properties, recover the cluster by using the WebManager manually.<br />

15. Return the added server with the WebManager to the cluster.<br />

16. Move group as necessary.<br />

Deleting a server<br />

To delete a server, follow the steps below:<br />

1. From the WebManager, stop the server to delete, close all the connections including LANs,<br />

SCSIs and COMs.<br />

Important:<br />

When the shared disk is used, take the following steps after closing all the connections to<br />

the shared disk completely. If a connection to the shared disk is kept after uninstalling<br />

<strong>ExpressCluster</strong>, data on the shared disk may be corrupted.<br />

2. Make sure that the cluster is working properly. (However, ignore errors in the server to be<br />

deleted.)<br />

3. Run the “clpcl --suspend --<strong>for</strong>ce” command at the command prompt, and suspend only the<br />

server that has been started.<br />

4. When the server to be deleted is registered in a server group, right-click the server group in<br />

the tree in the left pane of the Builder, and then select Properties. Delete the target server<br />

from Servers that can run the Group in the Server Groups tab.<br />

5. Right-click the server to delete on the tree in the left pane of the Builder, and select Remove<br />

the server.<br />
