Ibm Powerha 6.1 On Aix 6.1 Demonstration: Resource Group Details

This document summarizes the steps taken to demonstrate IBM PowerHA 6.1 on AIX 6.1. It describes preparing two nodes called powerha61_a and powerha61_b by installing prerequisites, creating volume groups and file systems, and configuring network interfaces. It then outlines the process of installing PowerHA, configuring a highly available cluster including persistent IP addresses and application servers, and creating resource groups to make the file systems and applications highly available across the nodes. The demonstration shows verifying the configuration and failover of resources when a node is stopped.

Start Up The Cluster


Smitty hacmp -> System Management (C-SPOC) -> HACMP Services ->

Verification
Is everything where Id expect it? df netstat i file systems are mounted ps ef | grep writetime Fast, easy, but not thorough test Kill a node via the HMC Start up the node Start HACMP Move the resource back Logs /var/hacmp/adm/cluster.log /var/hacmp/log/hacmp.out

Demo Cleanup
smitty hacmp -> System Management (C-SPOC) -> Stop cluster Both nodes Remove resource groups Remove nodes Remove cluster.* file sets reboot
