Guide (Solaris) 1 Installation Overview

1 Installation Overview

This topic explains the terms involved with installing the U2000 Veritas hot standby high
availability system into a Solaris operating system (OS).

CAUTION
Servers are pre-installed with software from Huawei and can be commissioned immediately.
For more information, see the iManager U2000 Commissioning Guide. If servers are purchased
from other suppliers, install software according to the U2000 deployment.

Definitions for terms as used in this document before introducing the high availability system
(Solaris) scheme:
l Server: A server can refer to the hardware and/or software. In the client/server structure, a
server refers to the server program. The term refers to hardware when used in reference to
a computer where a server program runs.
l Client: Refers to the client application of the software in a client/server structure. The client
application can run on a computer along with the server application or on a separate
computer. The term refers to hardware when used in reference to the computer where a
client application runs.
l Workstation and host: A workstation functions the same as a host. Generally, a workstation
or host refers to the computer where services run in a Solaris OS.
l Primary (Secondary) site: Used for the high availability system, the primary (secondary)
site refers to the physical primary (secondary) site. Whether a site is a primary site or a
secondary site is specified when it is installed, and the role does not change when the system
switching occurs. In most of the time, a primary site is in the active state, whereas a
secondary site is in the standby state for protecting the primary site.
l Active (Standby) site: It is used for the high availability system. The active (standby) site
refers to the site in the active (standby) state. The site in the standby state protects the site
in the active state.
l Active (Standby) state: It is used for the high availability system. The active (standby) state
refers to the working (protection) state. For example, if all the relevant applications on a
site run normally, this site is in the active state.
l Centralized system: Refers to the core processes of the U2000 and database service that
are deployed on a server.

l Component: Refers to a functional unit of software that you can select to install. A
component can consist of multiple deployment packages.
l Deployment package: Refers to a software unit that is deployed on a computer.
Deployment packages are classified into the following types:
– System single-instance: These types of deployment packages can be installed on only
one server and each component can be deployed with only one instance.
– Single-server single-instance: These types of deployment packages can be installed on
multiple servers and each component can be deployed with only one instance on each
server.
– Single-server multi-instance: These types of deployment packages can be installed on
multiple servers and each component can be deployed with multiple instances on each
server.

3 Installation Preparations Guide (Solaris)

l Configuring a disk array is optional. A disk array is used to store database data to improve
database performance.
l The primary and secondary sites communicate with each other using a DCN. The IPMP
feature can be configured on the primary and secondary sites to prevent a single NIC from
becoming invalid.
l A U2000 client and a network management system maintenance suite client communicate
with the server using a DCN.
l NEs and the upper-layer NMS (OSS) communicate with the server using a DCN.

3.4 Collecting Installation Information


This topic describes how to collect installation information. Before installing the high
availability system (Solaris), collect required information, including the host name, IP address,
route, time zone and time, user password, installation path, component quantity, and instance
quantity.
Complete planning for the information listed in the following tables according to the iManager
U2000 Planning Guide. Collect and record the installation information in the tables.
TIP

Print the following tables and fill in the blanks with the site-specific planning information.
Examples provided in the tables are the default values of servers that come pre-installed with software from
Huawei.

CAUTION
To ensure that the NMS can run properly, host name planning must comply with the following
rules and restrictions:
l The host name of the U2000 server must be unique on the network.
l The host name must be a string consisting of no more than 24 characters that can only be
letters (A to Z), digits (0 to 9) and hyphen (-).
l The first character must be a letter and the last character cannot be a hyphen.
l The host name must be case-sensitive.
l The host name cannot contain any space.
l The host name cannot contain only one character.
l The host name cannot contain --.
l The host name cannot be any of the following keywords in the high availability system.

You need to plan the following types of IP addresses:


l IP address of the workstation controller: This type of IP address is used to remotely log in
to a workstation to manage and maintain workstation hardware. For example, you can use
it to remotely install the OS or log in to a workstation to perform operation and maintenance
if the OS fails to start properly.
l IP address of the disk array controller: This type of IP address is used to remotely manage
and maintain equipment.
l System IP address: This type of IP address is used to log in to a server to manage and
maintain the OS. It is the IP address of the OS.
l IP address of the heartbeat network service: This type of IP address is used to detect status
of the network connection between the primary and secondary sites.
l IP address of the replication network service: This type of IP address is used to replicate
data between Primary and secondary sites.
l NMS application IP address: This type of IP address is used to provide external NMS
services, such as the communication between the NMS server and the clients or NEs.
NOTE

l During the network planning, the heartbeat network, replication network, and NMS application network
can be planed separately or in reuse mode. Planning the heartbeat network, replication network, and
NMS application network separately is not recommended.
l The heartbeat network, replication network, and NMS application network can be configured with
network protection, that is, IPMP. It is not recommended that IPMP be configured.
l IPMP is short for IP network multipathing. In this mode, two NICs work in 1+1 backup mode. During
configuration, an IP address is assigned to each of the NICs and a floating IP address is also set. When
the active NIC is faulty, services can be switched to the standby NIC. Configuring IPMP requires two
NICs and three IP addresses, and the three IP addresses must be on the same network segment.

According to the number of required NICs, function types of configured IP addresses, and
whether IPMP is configured, multiple IP address planning schemes are available for the HA
system (Solaris). The typical IP address planning schemes are as follows.
NOTE
In the HA system, the primary and secondary sites can be deployed either in the same place (local
deployment) or in different cities (remote deployment). The following uses local deployment as an example
to describe IP address planning. If remote deployment is required, ensure that routes between the primary
and secondary sites are reachable.

Single-NIC Scheme (Recommended)


Single-NIC scheme: Only one NIC is required. Figure 3-2 shows the networking diagram. The
single-NIC scheme is recommended.

Figure 3-2 Networking example (single-NIC scheme)

IP planning description: Only the System IP address needs to be planned. Heartbeat detection,
data replication, and external NMS services between primary and secondary sites are all
implemented through NIC 1.
l Advantage: The networking is simple and IP addresses can be saved.
l Disadvantage: All data is transmitted over one link and faults cannot be isolated.

IP planning example: Table 3-5 shows the planning example.

l NIC 1 and NIC 2 work in 1+1 backup mode. The System IP address, IP address of the
active heartbeat NIC, and IP address of the standby heartbeat NIC need to be planned.
l If the NICs are running properly, the System IP address maps to the IP address of the active
heartbeat NIC. Heartbeat detection, data replication, and external NMS services between
primary and secondary sites are all implemented through the System IP address. If the active
NIC is faulty, the System IP address automatically maps to the IP address of the standby
heartbeat NIC. Heartbeat detection, data replication, and external NMS services between
primary and secondary sites are still implemented through the System IP address, thereby
implementing NIC protection.

CAUTION
The System IP address, IP address of the active heartbeat NIC, and IP address of the standby
heartbeat NIC must be on the same network segment.

l Advantage: The NICs work in 1+1 backup mode and network security is high.
l Disadvantage: The networking is complicated and many IP addresses are required. Future
maintenance is complex and switch performance must be high.

7.3.1 Installing the U2000 Through the GUI


This topic describes how to install the U2000 software through the GUI. It is recommended that
you install the U2000 through the GUI if you are not familiar with the common commands of
the Solaris OS.

Prerequisite
l If the U2000 is not pre-configured, see 7.2 Pre-configuring the U2000. The U2000 will
fail to install if it is not pre-configured.
l The operation procedure varies according to whether a database is installed on site.
1. The Sybase database is not reused.
If the Sybase database is not installed on site or the version of the installed database
does not meet requirements, it is recommended that the Sybase database be not reused.
The database software is pre-installed on the U2000.
2. The Sybase database is reused.
If the database is installed on the server and installation engineers want to use the
original database software, ensure that the database is running. For details, see B.3.1.3
How to Verify That the Sybase Process Is Running and B.3.1.2 How to Start the
Sybase Database Service.
– If the Sybase 12.5 is installed, do not use the original database software.

NOTE

l The NMS can automatically expand the capacity of a database according to the growth parameters
defined when the database is created. The disk space for installing the database must be greater than
the maximum size to which the file is permitted to grow. If the disk space is insufficient, the system
will display a prompt message in red. The U2000 can manage up to the maximum of NEs as supported
by the server model.
l When the progress bar reaches 99%, the system may wait about half an hour until U2000 installation
is complete. This is normal.
l If a message indicating an installation failure or interruption is displayed during installation, perform
the following operations to clear the installation environment, and then install the U2000.
1. Run the following commands to use the environment clean-up tool to clear the installation
environment:
# cd /opt/HWENGR/engineering/tool
# ./FailedNMSInstallationClear.sh
2. Perform 4 to install the U2000.

14 The system will display a prompt indicating that installation was successfully completed.
15 Click Finish to complete the U2000 installation.
16 Run the following commands to stop the VCS service:

# ps -ef|grep had

A message similar to the following will be displayed:


root 27663 17299 0 00:31:00 pts/2 0:00 grep had

NOTE

If the had and hadshadow processes are not displayed, the VCS service is successfully stopped; otherwise,
run the kill -9 process ID command to stop the related processes.

18 Run the following commands to restart the OS:


# sync;sync;sync;sync
# shutdown -y -g0 -i6

19 Do as follows to set Disable alarm generation for /opt/sybase/data:

CAUTION
This step needs to be performed only on the primary site.

NOTE
The /opt/sybase/data path is used to store database data. In the high availability system, data in this path must
be replicated to the secondary site in real time. The database data size is used by default according to the data
replication rate and traffic. Therefore, the remaining hard disk space is small, and an alarm is reported on Hard
Disk Monitor of the System Monitor. This alarm is a normal one and you need to set the monitoring status on
Hard Disk Monitor to Disable alarm generation.
1. Start the U2000 server. For details, see B.2.2.8 How to Start/Stop the NMS Before
Synchronizing the Primary and Secondary Sites.
2. Log in to the GUI of the OS as the nmsuser user.

7.3.2 Installing the U2000 Through the CLI


This topic describes how to install the U2000 software through the CLI. Installation engineers
are recommended to install the U2000 through the CLI if they cannot log in to the GUI.

Prerequisite
l If the U2000 is not pre-configured, see 7.2 Pre-configuring the U2000. The U2000 will
fail to install if it is not pre-configured.
l The operation procedure varies according to whether a database is installed on site.
1. The Sybase database is not reused.
If the Sybase database is not installed on site or the version of the installed database
does not meet requirements, it is recommended that the Sybase database be not reused.
The database software is pre-installed on the U2000.
2. The Sybase database is reused.
If the database is installed on the server and installation engineers want to use the
original database software, ensure that the database is running. For details, see B.3.1.3
How to Verify That the Sybase Process Is Running and B.3.1.2 How to Start the
Sybase Database Service.
– If the Sybase 12.5 is installed, do not use the original database software.
– If the Sybase 15.0 is installed, do not use the original database software. In the
event that the original Sybase 15.0 software must be used, ensure that the following
criteria are met:
(1) The server name of the Sybase database is DBSVR. For details, see B.3.2.7 How
to Change the Server Name of the Sybase Database to DBSVR.
(2) There are not any redundant database items. For details, see B.3.2.8 How to

A Separating the Primary Site from the


Secondary Site

This topic describes how to separate the primary site from the secondary site. Separating the
primary site from the secondary site refers to disconnecting the primary site and the secondary
site. In this manner, the HA system is split into two individual sites. To separate the primary site
from the secondary site, perform the following operations.

Prerequisite
Ensure that the /opt directory has available space. You can run the df -hk /opt command to view
the remaining space of the /opt directory.

Procedure
l Mode 1 (recommended): Separate the primary site from secondary site in GUI mode.
1. Ensure that the MSuite servers on the primary and secondary sites have been started.
Run the following command as the root user to check whether the MSuite servers are
started:
# ps -ef | grep java

A message similar to the following will be displayed:


...
root 5694 1 0 19:47:23 ? 61:16 /opt/HWNMSJRE/jre_sol/bin/
java -server -Dlanguage=en -Xverify:none -Xmx256m -Xm

NOTE
If the displayed information contains /opt/HWNMSJRE/jre_sol/bin/java -server, it indicates that
the MSuite servers have been started.
If the MSuite server have not been started, run the following commands as the root
user to start the MSuite servers:
# cd /opt/HWENGR/engineering
# ./startserver.sh

2. Log in to the Java Desktop System, Release 3 session of the OS of the primary site

B.4.5 How to Determine Which Types of Software Are Preinstalled


Question
Servers come preinstalled with software from Huawei. The U2000 servers come preinstalled to
different extents according to the scheme and software purchased. How do I determine which
types of software are preinstalled?

The U2000 is installed based on the BOM.
l If the U2000 license BOM is available, the U2000 HA system needs to be installed
according to the license BOM while the primary site and secondary site are separated as
much as possible. Technical support engineers need to change the IP address, check that
the network between the primary site and secondary site is functioning properly, and then
connect the two sites.
l If the U2000 license BOM is unavailable, only the OS needs to be installed.

B.4.7 How to Handle Messages Indicating That the Port Is Occupied


During Installation or Uninstall

Question
How do I handle messages indicating that the port is occupied during use of the MSuite,
installation, or uninstall?

In the Solaris OS, the message is as follows:


The communication port (12212,12213,12214,12215) of the installation framework is
used. Run the "/usr/bin/netstat -an -P tcp" command to query the usage status of
the port, or try later.

Answer
l Wait about one minute and try again after the port is released automatically.
l In the Solaris or SUSE Linux OS, run the following command to view process IDs:
# ps -ef | grep java root 19913 19907 0 04:04:09 pts/1 0:00 grep java ...

B.4.14 How to Set the Communication Mode of the Server in a High


Availability System (Solaris)?
Question
The server in a high availability system (Solaris) has two communication modes, namely,
common and Security Socket Layer (SSL). How to set the common or SSL mode?

Answer

CAUTION
In a high availability system (Solaris), the communication mode of the server is automatically
synchronized from the primary site to the secondary site. Therefore, only the procedure for
setting the communication mode on the primary site is described here.

1 Log in to the OS as the root user and run the following commands to query the communication
mode in use:
# cd /opt/U2000/server # . ./svc_profile.sh # ssl_adm -cmd query

NOTE

Leave a space between the dot (.) and ./svc_profile.sh.

2 Stop the U2000 processes.


The U2000 processes consist of the U2000 server process and the Sybase process.
Check whether the U2000 processes are stopped and perform the following operations:
1. Access the Java Desktop System, Release 3 session of the OS of the server of the active
site as the root user.
2. Run the following command to start the VCS client:
# hagui &

3. Choose File > New Cluster. A dialog box is displayed, as shown in the following figure.

U2000 processes are started. Do as follows to stop the U2000 processes:
Right-click AppService and choose Offline > host_name from the shortcut menu.

3 Run the following commands to set the communication mode of the server:
# ssl_adm -cmd setmode mode parameter

NOTE

In the preceding command, mode parameter can be normal, ssl, or both. The description of each value is
as follows:
l normal: Indicates that the U2000 server communicates with clients only in normal mode without
security assurance.
l ssl: Indicates that the U2000 server communicates with clients only in security mode. This mode ensures
the communication security.
l both: Indicates that both the normal and SSL modes are applicable to the U2000 server to communicate
with clients.

D Getting Started

This topic describes certain common operations that can be performed on the Solaris
workstation. After learning this topic, you can improve the efficiency of the operations in the
Solaris OS.

Syntax Structure of Command Lines


The syntax structure of command lines is as follows:
command option parameter

The Solaris commands are case-sensitive. That is, the OS considers an uppercase letter and its
corresponding lowercase letter two different letters. For example, when you want to use the
command for displaying the files in the certain directory, the OS can correctly run the ls
command, but it cannot run the Ls command because the Ls command is considered as an invalid
system command. The options in the Solaris commands are used to change the command
execution method. Generally, the options start with the en-dash (-).

For example, run the following command to display the files and the related details in the /opt
directory:
ls -al /opt

Switching to the bash Mode


It is recommended that you switch the system to the bash mode after logging in to the OS to
reduce the period used for entering commands. Generally, after logging in to the OS, you can
run the bash command to switch to the bash mode, as shown in the following figure.

The following basic features of the bash mode help you interact with the system better:

l Command line editing: enables you move the cursor among command lines or edit text.
l History command: allows you to edit or restore the command that has been entered in
command lines.

For example, if you enter the first two or three letters of a command or a file and then press
Tab, the system automatically fills in the desired command or file.

Switching Users
The Solaris OS has strict user management rules. Different OS users can access only associated
applications.
l To switch OS users, run the following command:
su - OS user name

Leave a space between - and OS user name.


For example, to switch to the nmsuser user, run the following command:
su - nmsuser

l To exit an OS user, run the following command:


exit

NOTE

To switch back to the root user, run the exit command several times until the prompt changes to #.

Directory Browsing and Control Commands


Command/Usage Example Description

cd directory cd /opt Switches to another directory.

ls option file directory ls -al /opt Displays the directory


contents or file information.

mkdir directory mkdir install Creates a directory.

pwd pwd Displays the current directory


of the user.

rm file name rm file.tar Deletes a file.

rmdir directory rmdir temp Deletes an empty directory.

Logging In to the Solaris OS Through Remote Login Software


There are many remote login software products, such as the PuTTY. This topic takes the PuTTY
as an example. The PuTTY is used to log in to the server from a remote site through command
lines.

CAUTION
Make sure that the remote login software is installed.

1. Double-click the shortcut icon of the PuTTY software on the desktop. The following dialog
box is displayed.

G Planning Disk Partitions

This topic describes the disk partitioning scheme that is determined according to the sizes and
quantities of the server hard disks.

Specify the disk partitioning plan before manually installing the OS. This part can be skipped if
the OS is installed with the quick installation DVD because the installation software
automatically partitions disks according to the disk size.

CAUTION
l The second slice represents the total capacity of the hard disk. Do not change it during the
partitioning process. Otherwise, the OS may not function properly.
l Partition 3 and partition 4 are reserved for disk mirroring. During the partitioning process,
do not enter the name or size of the partition.
l The following table lists only the slices for partitioning. In the case of the slices that do not
need to be partitioned, you do not need to enter the associated name or size during the
partitioning process. For example, in the case of 2 x 73 GB disks, do not enter partition
names /usr and /var in the partitioning process.

l The following section provides example disk partitioning schemes for the primary and
secondary sites.
– If a server is equipped with two hard disks, the first hard disk must be partitioned
regardless of whether a disk array is connected. The second hard disk does not require
partitioning because it serves as a mirror disk for the first hard disk. Table G-1 and
Table G-2 show the partitioning scheme for the first hard disk of a two-disk server.
