Installing Dx Cluster Services Node Software - Dell DX6000 User Manual

Installing DX Cluster Services Node Software

If you have at least one data replica, any data on the failed storage node or
hard drive is replicated to another storage node in the cluster. Hardware status
for the DX Storage Nodes can be monitored from the DX Object Storage
Node Administration Console. Replace any failed hardware components on
the DX Storage Nodes as required to bring the failed node back into service.
The DX Cluster Services Node software distribution is available as a
collection of rpm packages that are installed with a self-extracting shell script.
The packages and their dependencies must be installed on the DX6a00
system as the root user. To install DX Cluster Services Node software:
1 Download the latest version of the DX Cluster Services Node software
distribution available online at support.dell.com/downloads.
2 Copy the distributed zip file to your DX Cluster Services Node system and
unzip it into the directory of your choice.
3 Install the DX Cluster Services Node software by running the
self-extracting script from inside the bundle directory location where the
shell script was unzipped.
This initiates installation of the DX Cluster Services Node software and its
dependent packages. For more information, see the Cluster Services Node
Installation and Configuration Guide at support.dell.com/manuals.

following command:
