3. Power off the first node.
4. Power on the other node (the joining node).
5. Set up the joining node:
a. Networking setup
See "Networking setup" on page 37.
b. Shared storage setup
For the joining node, the only part of this step that you must
complete is assigning drive letters on the shared storage; make sure
that the drive letters are the same as those on the first node.
Also, if you have trouble with the Fibre Channel connection, you can
use the steps in "Testing the Fibre Channel host adapter with FAStT
MSJ" on page 108 to diagnose the problem.
c. Domain setup
See "Joining a node to a domain" on page 40.
d. Power off the joining node.
6. Power on the first node and complete "Cluster setup" on page 40.
7. Power on the joining node and complete "Cluster setup" on page 40.
For more information on network setup and cluster installation, see
"Chapter 5. Completing networking, clustering, and storage access setup"
on page 37.
Step 4 - Cluster administration
At this point you can add users, file shares, and complete other
configuration tasks to improve operations of the Model 326 in a cluster
environment.
1. Add users (see "Creating users" on page 43).
2. Add file shares (see "Creating clustered file shares (CIFS and NFS)" on
page 47). Note that you must configure Server for NFS before NFS file
sharing can be used.
For more information on cluster administration, see "Configuring clusters" on
page 41.
Step 5 - Additional functions
Additional functions are available for backup, persistent images, and adding
more storage areas. It is recommended that after you complete the setup
and configuration procedures, you use the Persistent Storage Manager
Disaster Recovery option ("Disaster Recovery" on page 64) or other method
to back up the system configuration in the event of a failure.
Also, it is imperative to use the system shutdown procedure described
in "Powering off and powering on the Model 326" on page 49 to ensure
system integrity.
For more information, see "Chapter 6. Managing and protecting the network
and storage" on page 53.
