VA 7100/7400 Cluster Installation Guide 7 Node 2 (Secondary/Passive Node) Configuration Introduction This chapter contains the step-by-step procedure for configuration of node 2, the secondary/passive node, of the VA 7100/7400 disk array in a dual-path cluster configuration. Preliminary Operations The following preliminary operations must be successfully completed before beginning the cluster setup procedure. 1. Ensure that all requirements detailed in chapters 2 through 6 have been thoroughly reviewed and successfully completed. 2. Ensure that storage array is powered up and maintained in accordance with the procedure of chapter 5. 3. Ensure that node 1 is powered up and running. 4. Remove node 2 from the Pause state, and allow node 2 to finish its booting. Configuration Procedure Perform the following procedure to configure node 2, the secondary or passive node. 1. Repeat the setup process of node 1 to set up node 2; that is, repeat the procedure of chapter 5. Check for detection of any dynamic drives and change them to basic as performed in steps 4 through 7 of chapter 5. This time, there is no need to pause any server, as was done with node 2 at the end of chapter 5. Ensure that the drive letters are identical on both nodes (refer to step 13 of chapter 5). 2. Repeat the procedures of chapter 6 for node 2 up through step 3 of the Cluster Setup Procedure. 3. In the Create or Join a Cluster window shown below, select The second or next node in the cluster, then click Next. 10/12/01 46

Node 2 (Secondary/Passive Node) Configuration
Introduction
This chapter contains the step-by-step procedure for configuration of node 2, the secondary/passive node, of the
VA 7100/7400 disk array in a dual-path cluster configuration.
Preliminary Operations
The following preliminary operations must be successfully completed before beginning the cluster setup procedure.
1.
Ensure that all requirements detailed in chapters 2 through 6 have been thoroughly reviewed and successfully
completed.
2.
Ensure that storage array is powered up and maintained in accordance with the procedure of chapter 5.
3.
Ensure that node 1 is powered up and running.
4. Remove node 2 from the
Pause
state, and allow node 2 to finish its booting.
Configuration Procedure
Perform the following procedure to configure node 2, the secondary or passive node.
1.
Repeat the setup process of node 1 to set up node 2; that is, repeat the procedure of chapter 5.
Check for
detection of any dynamic drives and change them to basic as performed in steps
4
through
7
of chapter 5.
This
time, there is no need to pause any server, as was done with node 2 at the end of chapter 5.
Ensure that the drive
letters are identical on both nodes (refer to step
13
of chapter 5).
2.
Repeat the procedures of chapter 6 for node 2 up through step
3
of the
