    Serial Networks There are two type of serial networks: A first one is used by HACMP to monitor the nodes. Nodes periodically exchange keep alive messages (heart beat) in particular through this network. A second one is used to wire the nodes on a console concentrator, if any. It enables a single terminal connected to the console concentrator to be the system console of every node.

    Examples of Use The Cluster Administration Hub is used to set up a dedicated administration network (10Base-T Ethernet network). The Cluster Administration Hub is used for Escala EPC configurations with a Cluster Console, or a Cluster PowerConsole. The administration network utilizes the LSA adapter of an EPC800 node, an ethernet board on an EPC1200/EPC1200A node, the integrated ethernet card on an EPC400 node or on the Powerconsole.

  • Page 51: Console Concentrator Configuration Procedure

    Console Concentrator Configuration Procedure Before you start, note that: • The Console Concentrator (CS/2600) is configured through the ASCII console (BQ306). The ASCII console has to be connected to the J0 port of the CS/2600 server, to set the console baud rate to 9600. However, the Console Concentrator (CS/2600) can also be configured through the PowerConsole provided that it is connected to the J0 port instead of the ASCII console.

    When it is common to two nodes the disk cabinet can be used as system disk extension or shared disk subsystem. In the former case the disks are not shared. Each node possesses its own SCSI bus. In the latter the configuration allows to support a node failure. There are two SCSI adapters per node, where each adapter is connected to a distinct SP.

  • Page 176: Examples Of Use

    Examples of Use Point-to-point Connection One port of a Symmetrix box is connected to an Escala server through a single adapter (either Ultra Wide Differential SCSI or Fibre Channel). As there is no redundancy of any component on the link, a single failure (cable, adapter, Channel Director) may cause the loss of all data.
  • Page 177 Figure 123. Multiple connection of an EMC Symmetrix subsystem Base Configuration with HACMP The usual HA configuration with Symmetrix subsystems is to duplicate the point to point connection and to configure the Symmetrix in order to make the data volumes available to both servers through the two separate host ports.
  • Page 178 Configuration with HACMP and Powerpath (multiple paths) Figure 125. Configuration of an EMC Symmetrix subsystem with Powerpath Powrepath is a software driver which allows multiple paths between a node and a Symmetrix subsystem to provide path redundancy, and improve performance and availability.

    RSF (Remote Services Facilities) performs system error monitoring and handles communications for remote maintenance operations. The modem, together with RSF, provide a link, via a phone line, between the system at the customer site and a Bull Customer Service. The table below shows the number of modems and their type, according to the Powercluster configuration.
  • Page 188 For configuration RMCF02, the internal modem of the S100 is prepared and configured at manufacture. In other configurations, the integrated modem of any EPC400 is also prepared at manufacture (configuration of the modem and RSF dial-in). The external modem is provided, installed and configured on the client site by the Customer Service.

    Modem on a Node’s S2 Plug Basic Cabling for a Uni-node Configuration • On an EPC 800 node the modem is external. • On an EPC 400 node the modem is integrated (ISA board) inside the drawer. • On an EPC1200 or EPC1200A system, the modem is external. For ECP800, the modem support is put into the rack.
  • Page 192 Figure 136. RMCF03: Remote maintenance: Modem on a Node’s S2 plug w/ Console Concentrator Example of Use This solution is recommended: • when there is a local ClusterConsole (as depicted in the figure) • or when the Powerconsole is not wired to the Console Concentrator. In a multiple-node EPC400 configuration there should be one node with an integrated modem.

  • Page 193: Using Two Modems

    Using Two Modems Two modems are provided with every 2-node configuration which does not include any console concentrator. When extending a uni-node configuration with an additional node, an external modem is added. An original uni-node EPC RT model is provided with a modem integrated in the CPU drawer.
