|
||
|
|
<div><p>For an independent disk pool to be switchable among servers
|
||
|
|
or for geographic mirroring to be enabled, an iSeries™ cluster is required. An iSeries cluster
|
||
|
|
is a collection or group of one or more servers that work together as a single
|
||
|
|
server. For complete documentation on clusters and how they work, see <a href="../rzaig/rzaigicclust.htm">Clusters</a>.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>There are multiple way to create and manage a cluster. You can use iSeries Navigator
|
||
|
|
to create a cluster, a cluster middleware business partner solution, or IBM<sup>®</sup> cluster
|
||
|
|
commands and APIs. See <a href="../rzaig/rzaigplansolutions.htm">Solutions for configuring clusters</a> for a complete look
|
||
|
|
at the options for configuring and managing clusters. </p>
|
||
|
|
<p>To create a cluster for use with switchable independent disk pools:</p>
|
||
|
|
<ol><li>For step-by-step instructions on how to create a cluster, see <a href="../rzaig/rzaigconfigcreatecluster.htm">Create a cluster</a> in
|
||
|
|
the Clusters topic.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>Verify that all nodes are at the correct potential cluster version. Potential
|
||
|
|
cluster version must be at least 3 for switchable independent disk pools that
|
||
|
|
support libraries. To allow for the V5R3M0 capability of geographic mirroring,
|
||
|
|
the potential cluster version must be set to at least 4. See <a href="../rzaig/rzaigmanageadjustclusterversion.htm">Adjust the
|
||
|
|
cluster version of a cluster</a> for details.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>Start all nodes in the cluster, or at least those that will be in the
|
||
|
|
device domains. See <a href="../rzaig/rzaigmanagestartnode.htm">Start a cluster node</a> for details.</li>
