Configuring Redundancy after eG Manager Configuration

To enable redundancy after installing and configuring the managers, do the following:

  1. First, login as the eG user.
  2. From the command prompt, move to the /opt/egurkha/bin directory, and execute the following command: ./setup_cluster.
  3. Upon execution, the setup_cluster script will first request for the location of the Java home directory.

    Please enter the location of your Java home directory []: /usr/jdk1.3.1_06

  4. Once the location is specified, setup will request your confirmation to proceed with enabling manager redundancy.

    Would you like to enable eG Manager redundancy y/n [n]? y

  5. While specifying n at step 4 will terminate the script execution, entering y will enable you to proceed with the setup by providing the IP (or hostname) and port number of the manager being configured.

    Please enter the hostname (or IP address) of this host: 192.168.10.87
    Please enter the port at which this eG Manager listens : 7077

     

    Note:

    If the eG manager is configured using the hostname, then ensure that cluster setup is also performed using the hostname only. Likewise, if the eG manager is configured using the IP address, then ensure that cluster setup is also performed using the IP address alone.

  6. Once the IP and port are provided, steps 2 to 12 of Configuring Redundancy during eG Manager Configuration will follow.
  7. Finally, restart the manager.
