    This is a reserved volume and must be maintained as it exists. HP does not recommend spanning array controllers with dynamic volumes. The use of software RAID-based dynamic volumes is not recommended. Use the array controller instead; it is more efficient.

  • Page 36: Scheduling Defragmentation

    Only basic disks can be formatted as FAT or FAT32. Read the online Disk Management help found in the utility. Scheduling defragmentation Defragmentation is the process of analyzing local volumes and consolidating fragmented files and folders so that each occupies a single, contiguous space on the volume. This improves file system performance.

  • Page 58: Cluster Administration

    6 Cluster administration One important feature of HP StoreEasy 3000 Storage systems is that they can operate as a single node or as a cluster. This chapter discusses cluster installation and cluster management issues. Cluster overview A failover cluster is a group of independent computers that work together to increase the availability of applications and services.

  • Page 59: Resources

    Resources Hardware and software components that are managed by the cluster service are called cluster resources. Cluster resources have three defining characteristics: They can be brought online and taken offline. They can be managed in a cluster. They can be owned by only one node at a time. Examples of cluster resources are IP addresses, network names, physical disk resources, and file shares.

  • Page 60: Quorum Disk

    service attempts to transfer the group to the next node on the preferred owner's list. If the transfer is successful, the resources are brought online in accordance with the resource dependency structure. The system failover policy defines how the cluster detects and responds to the failure of individual resources in the group.

  • Page 61: Sequence Of Events For Cluster Resources

    Figure 25 Cluster concepts diagram Sequence of events for cluster resources The sequence of events in the diagram includes: Physical disks are combined into RAID arrays and LUNs. LUNS are designated as basic disks, formatted, and assigned a drive letter via Disk Manager. Physical Disk resources are created for each basic disk inside Failover Cluster Management.

  • Page 62: Cluster Planning

    An IP Address resource is formed in the group and relates to the IP address by which the group's virtual server is identified on the network. A Network Name resource is formed in the group and relates to the name published on the network by which the group is identified.

  • Page 63: Network Planning

    The client must wait until the initial node is brought back online to access the share. HP recommends placing cluster aware and non cluster aware protocols on different file shares. Cluster planning...

  • Page 64: Preparing For Cluster Installation

    Using multipath data paths for high availability HP recommends that cluster configurations be deployed with dual data paths for high availability. Clusters can be configured with single path, but if a failure in the path occurs, all of the node resources will be failed to the non-affected node.

  • Page 65: Shared Disk Requirements

    A domain user account for Cluster service (all nodes must be members of the same domain) Each node should have at least two network adapters—one for connection to the public network and the other for the node-to-node private cluster network. If only one network adapter is used for both connections, the configuration is unsupported.

  • Page 67: Configuring Shared Disks

    Configuring shared disks Use the Windows Disk Management utility to configure additional shared disk resources. Verify that all shared disks are formatted as NTFS and are designated as Basic. Additional shared disk resources are automatically added into the cluster as physical disk resources during the installation of cluster services.

  • Page 68: Cluster Groups And Resources, Including File Shares

    The following rules must be followed with geographically dispersed clusters: A network connection with latency of 500 milliseconds or less ensures that cluster consistency can be maintained. If the network latency is over 500 milliseconds, the cluster consistency cannot be easily maintained. All nodes must be on the same subnet.

  • Page 69: File Share Resource Planning Issues

    File share resource planning issues SMB and NFS are cluster-aware protocols that support the Active/Active cluster model, allowing resources to be distributed and processed on both nodes at the same time. For example, some NFS file share resources can be assigned to a group owned by a virtual server for Node A and additional NFS file share resources can be assigned to a group owned by a virtual server for Node Configuring the file shares as cluster resources provides for high availability of file shares.

  • Page 71: Creating File Share Resources

    NOTE: Physical disk resources usually do not have any dependencies set. In multi-node clusters it is necessary to specify the node to move the group to. When a cluster group is moved to another node, all resources in that group are moved. When a physical disk resource is owned by a node, the disk appears as an unknown, unreadable disk to all other cluster nodes.

    Create a dedicated group (if desired). Create a physical resource (disk) (if required, see note). Create an IP address resource for the Virtual Server to be created (if required, see note). Create a Virtual Server Resource (Network Name) (if required, see note). NOTE: If the printer spool resource is added to an existing group with a physical resource, IP address, and virtual server resource, steps 1-4 are not required.

  • Page 74: Shutting Down One Cluster Node

    The physical process of restarting one of the nodes of a cluster is the same as restarting a storage system in single node environment. However, additional caution is needed. Restarting a cluster node causes all cluster resources served by that node to fail over to the other nodes in the cluster based on the failover policy in place.

  • Page 75: Troubleshooting, Servicing, And Maintenance

    The ProLiant SNMP agents are enabled on the storage system by default and should not be disabled as they are used for internal management functions. If they are enabled for external client consumption, HP SIM must be configured so it does not attempt to communicate with these agents.
