<h1 class="topictitle1">Plan for a cluster administrative domain</h1>
|
||
|
<div><p><span><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />The cluster administrative domain requires planning
|
||
|
to manage resources that are shared among nodes within a cluster administrative
|
||
|
domain.<img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></span></p>
|
||
|
<p>When you create a cluster administrative domain, a peer CRG is created
|
||
|
automatically to represent that domain. You can manage a cluster administrative
|
||
|
domain using APIs, CL commands and iSeries™ Navigator. </p>
|
||
|
<p><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />A cluster administrator can create a cluster administrative
|
||
|
domain and then can add monitored resources that are shared among nodes.
|
||
|
The i5/OS™ Cluster
|
||
|
provides a list of system resources that can be shared among nodes within
|
||
|
a cluster administrative domain, represented by <dfn class="term">monitored resource entries
|
||
|
(MREs)</dfn>. See <a href="rzaigconceptsmre.htm">Monitored
|
||
|
resources</a> for a complete list of system resources that can be monitored.<img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></p>
|
||
|
<div class="p">When designing a cluster administrative domain, you should answer the following
|
||
|
questions:<dl><dt class="dlterm">What resources will be shared?</dt>
|
||
|
<dd>You will need to determine which system resources need to be shared. You
|
||
|
can select attributes for each of these resources to customize what is shared
|
||
|
amongst nodes. Applications that run on multiple nodes may need specific environment
|
||
|
variables to run properly. In addition data that spans several nodes may also
|
||
|
require certain user profiles to be accessed. You should be aware of the operational
|
||
|
requirements for your applications and data before you determine what resources
|
||
|
will be shared.</dd>
|
||
|
<dt class="dlterm"><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />What nodes will be included in the cluster administrative domain?<img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></dt>
|
||
|
<dd><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />You should determine what nodes in a cluster are to be managed by the
|
||
|
cluster administrative domain. Nodes cannot be in multiple cluster
|
||
|
administrative domains. For example, if you have four nodes in a cluster (Node
|
||
|
A, Node B, Node C and Node D). Nodes A and B can be in one cluster administrative
|
||
|
domain and Nodes C and D can be in another. However you cannot have Node B
|
||
|
and C in another cluster administrative domain. <img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></dd>
|
||
|
<dt class="dlterm">What will be the naming convention for cluster administrative domains?</dt>
|
||
|
<dd><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />Depending on the complexity and size of your clustered
|
||
|
environment, you may want to establish a standard naming convention for peer
|
||
|
CRGs and cluster administrative domains. Since a peer CRG is created to represent
|
||
|
a cluster administrative domain, you will want to differentiate a peer CRG
|
||
|
from those that are monitoring resources in your cluster. For example, peer
|
||
|
CRGs that represent a cluster administrative domains can be named <var class="varname">ADMDMN1</var>, <var class="varname">ADMDMN2</var>,
|
||
|
and so forth, while other peer CRGs can be named <var class="varname">PEER1</var>.
|
||
|
You can also use the <a href="../apis/clrglstcrgi.htm"><span class="apiname">List
|
||
|
Cluster Resource Group Information (QcstListClusterResourceGroupIn) API</span></a> to
|
||
|
determine whether the peer CRG is used as a cluster administrative domain. <img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></dd>
