4.1.10 Windows Workstation

The Business Continuity Clustering installation program is run from a Windows* workstation. Prior

to running the installation program:

The Windows workstation must have the latest Novell Client™ software installed.

You must be authenticated to the eDirectory tree where the cluster resides.

OpenWBEM must be configured to start in

cluster with Novell iManager. For information on setup and configuration, see the

OpenWBEM Services Administration Guide (http://www.novell.com/documentation/oes2/

mgmt_openwbem_lx_nw/data/front.html).

Port 5989 is the default setting for secure HTTP (HTTPS) communications. If you are using a

firewall, the port must be opened for CIMOM communications.

Beginning in OES 2 (NetWare 6.5 SP7), the Clusters plug-in (and all other storage-related plug-ins)

for iManager require CIMOM connections for tasks that transmit sensitive information (such as a

username and password) between iManager and the

are managing. Typically, CIMOM is running, so this should be the normal condition when using the

server. CIMOM connections use Secure HTTP (HTTPS) for transferring data, and this ensures that

sensitive data is not exposed.

If CIMOM is not currently running when you click OK or Finish for the task that sends the sensitive

information, you get an error message explaining that the connection is not secure and that CIMOM

must be running before you can perform the task.

IMPORTANT: If you receive file protocol errors, it might be because WBEM is not running.

To check the status of WBEM:
