This is the name of the server as it appears in a Windows system.
If Novell CIFS is not installed and running, this field value is
10 Specify an IP address for the pool.
Each cluster-enabled NSS pool requires its own IP address. The IP address is used to provide
access and failover capability to the cluster-enabled pool (virtual server). The IP address
assigned to the pool remains assigned to the pool regardless of which server in the cluster is
accessing the pool.
11 Select the check boxes of the advertising protocols you want to enable for data requests to this
shared pool.
If Novell CIFS or Novell AFP are not installed and running, selecting the CIFS or AFP check
box has no effect.
NOTE: For OES 2 Linux and earlier, Novell CIFS and Novell AFP are not available. CIFS and
AFP check boxes can be selected, but CIFS and AFP functionality does not apply to Linux.
Selecting the check boxes has no effect.
AFP: AFP is the Macintosh networking protocol. Selecting AFP causes commands to be
added to the pool-resource load and unload scripts to activate the AFP protocol on the
cluster. This lets you ensure that the cluster-enabled pool you are creating is highly
available to AFP clients.
CIFS: CIFS is the Windows networking protocol. Selecting CIFS causes commands to be
added to the pool-resource load and unload scripts to activate the CIFS protocol on the
cluster. This lets you ensure that the cluster-enabled pool you are creating is highly
available to CIFS/Samba clients.
IMPORTANT: In OES 2 SP1 Linux, the script is not modified properly. See the
SP2: Readme
NCP: NCP is the Novell networking protocol used by the Novell Client. It is provided by
default and is mandatory. When you cluster-enable the pool, NCP adds commands to the
pool-resource load and unload scripts to activate the NCP protocol on the cluster. This lets
you ensure that the cluster-enabled pool you are creating is highly available to Novell
clients and that authentication and access to the file system is enforced according to the
Novell Trustee Model.
12 (Optional) Select the Online Resource after Create check box.
This causes the NSS volume to automatically mount when the resource is created.
13 Ensure that the Define Additional Properties check box is selected, then click Next.
14 Complete the following tasks to configure the behavior of the NSS pool cluster resource you
just created:
1.
"Setting Start, Failover, and Failback Modes for Cluster Resources" on page 125
2.
"Assigning Nodes to a Resource" on page 127
3.
"Configuring Resource Priorities for Load Order" on page 127
15 If desired, modify the cluster load, unload, and monitor scripts.
