3 High Availability (HA) cluster configuration 3. Enter cryptocfg --commit to commit the transaction. Any transaction remains in the defined state until it is committed. The commit operation fails if the HA cluster has less than two members. 4. Display the HA cluster configuration by entering the cryptocfg --show -hacluster -all command. In the following example, the encryption group brocade has one committed HAC1 with two encryption engines. SecurityAdmin:switch>cryptocfg --show -hacluster -all Encryption Group Name: brocade Number of HA Clusters: 1 HA cluster name: HAC1 - 1 EE entry Status: Committed WWN Slot Number 11:22:33:44:55:66:77:00 0 10:00:00:05:1e:53:74:87 3 Status Online Online NOTE An HA cluster configuration must have two encryption engines before you can commit the transaction with the cryptocfg --commit command. To commit an incomplete HA cluster, you have the option to force the commit operation by issuing cryptocfg --commit -force. Use the forced commit with caution, because the resulting configuration will not be functional and provide no failover/failback capabilities. Adding an encryption engine to an HA cluster 1. Log into the group leader as Admin or SecurityAdmin. 2. Enter the cryptocfg --add -haclustemember command. Specify the HA cluster name and the encryption engine node WWN. Provide a slot number if the encryption engine is a blade. The following example adds a Brocade FS8-18 in slot 5 to the HA cluster HAC2. SecurityAdmin:switch>cryptocfg --add -haclustermember HAC2 \ 10:00:00:60:5b:03:1c:90 5 EE Node WWN: 10:00:00:60:5b:03:1c:90 5 Slot number: 5Detected Add HA cluster member status: Operation succeeded. 3. Add another encryption engine before committing the transaction. 114 Fabric OS Encryption Administrator's Guide 53-1001864-01
