1.7 Post-Installation Tasks for a TruCluster

Note

PMDF supports TruCluster V5.1A and later only.

If you are going to use PMDF in a TruCluster environment, follow the previous instructions and install PMDF normally on the first node of the cluster. When the installation asks if you wish to relocate subdirectories containing transient files, answer yes and specify that they should be located in /var/spool/pmdf

Once the installation has completed, perform the following tasks:

  1. Create a context-dependent symbolic link (CDSL) for /var/spool/pmdf so each member of the cluster has its own transient file area. On the primary node of the cluster, run:


    # mkcdsl -af /var/spool/pmdf
    

  2. The post-installation tasks that were performed on the primary node of the cluster created periodic post and return jobs. These jobs must be created on every member of the cluster. Log on to each node of the cluster, and run:


    # su pmdf
    $ crontab /pmdf/table/cronjobs
    $ exit
    

  3. The ownership of the transient file subdirectories created by the mkcds1 command in Step 1 must be changed to the pmdf user. On each node of the cluster, run:


    # chown -R pmdf /var/spool/pmdf
    

  4. The /etc/clua_services file controls how the cluster handles incoming network connections. All PMDF services must be defined in this file in order to work properly. Make sure the following entries are present in the file:


    smtp                25/tcp                  in_multi 
    pop3                110/tcp                 in_multi 
    imap                143/tcp                 in_multi
