NOTE:
following error:
com.ibrix.ias.model.BusinessException: x467s2 is not associated with any power sources
Use the following command to define the iLO parameters into the X9000 cluster database:
ibrix_powersrc -a -t ilo -h HOSTNAME -I IPADDR [-u USERNAME -p PASSWORD]
See the installation guide for more information about configuring iLO.
Converting the original management console node to a file serving node
hosting the agile management console
To convert the original management console node, usually node 1, to a file serving node, complete
the following steps:
1.
Place the agile management console on the node into maintenance mode:
ibrix_fm –m maintenance
2.
Verify that the management console is in maintenance mode:
ibrix_fm –i
For example:
[root@x109s1 ibrix]# ibrix_fm -i
FusionServer: x109s1 (maintenance, quorum not started)
==================================
Command succeeded!
3.
Verify that the passive management console is now the active management console. Run the
ibrix_fm -i command on the file serving node hosting the passive management console
(x109s3 in this example). It may take up to two minutes for the passive management console
to become active.
[root@x109s3 ibrix]# ibrix_fm -i
FusionServer: x109s3 (active, quorum is running)
=============================
Command succeeded!
4.
Install the file serving node software on the node:
./ibrixinit -ts -C <cluster_device> -i <cluster VIP> -F
5.
Verify that the new file serving node has joined the cluster:
ibrix_server -l
Look for the new file serving node in the output.
6.
Rediscover storage on the file serving node:
ibrix_pv -a
7.
Set up the file serving node to match the other nodes in the cluster. For example, configure
any user NICs, user and cluster NIC monitors, NIC failover pairs, power, backup servers,
preferred NIC s for X9000 clients, and so on.
