7.3.2 Maintaining the environment of an SSO cluster system (in Windows)

This subsection describes how to maintain the active and standby nodes in a Windows SSO cluster system environment.

Organization of this subsection

(1) Maintenance on the active node

The procedure for maintenance on the active node consists of the following steps:

  1. Pre-maintenance setup

  2. SSO maintenance

  3. Setup of the action definition file

  4. Post-maintenance setup

Each step of the above procedure is described below.

(a) Pre-maintenance setup

Execute the cluster environment setting command (ssoclustersetup.vbs) to perform the pre-maintenance setup for the SSO cluster environment on the active node. For details about the cluster environment setting command, see ssoclustersetup.vbs (Windows only) in 5. Commands.

For the arguments of the cluster environment setting command, specify values as shown in the following table:

Argument

Value to be specified

First argument

-beforemaint (specifies that pre-maintenance setup is to be performed)

Second argument

-primary (specifies that the active node is the target)

Third argument

Shared folder name on the shared disk

Example: K:\shared\SSO

The following shows an example of the command that performs pre-maintenance setup:

cscript.exe $SSO_BIN\ssoclustersetup.vbs -beforemaint -primary K:\shared\SSO

If an error occurs, correct it with reference to the message that appears. After you have corrected the error, re-execute the command.

(b) SSO maintenance

Perform overwrite installation or upgrade-installation of SSO. Alternatively, apply patches to SSO.

(c) Setup of the action definition file

Set up the action definition file according to the need.

To monitor a new IPv6 network:

Use the cluster environment setting command (ssoclustersetup.vbs) to set an IPv6 logical IP address.

For the arguments of the cluster environment setting command, specify values as shown in the following table:

Argument

Value to be specified

First argument

-defset (specifies that the action definition file is to be set)

Second argument

Logical IP address (IPv6 address)

The following shows an example of the command that sets an IPv6 logical IP address:

cscript.exe  $SSO_BIN\ssoclustersetup.vbs -defset 2001:db8::7c

If an error occurs, correct it with reference to the message that appears. After you have corrected the error, re-execute the command.

(d) Post-maintenance setup

Execute the cluster environment setting command (ssoclustersetup.vbs) to perform the post-maintenance setup for the SSO cluster environment on the active node. For details about the cluster environment setting command, see ssoclustersetup.vbs (Windows only) in 5. Commands.

For the arguments of the cluster environment setting command, specify values as shown in the following table:

Argument

Value to be specified

First argument

-aftermaint (specifies that post-maintenance setup is to be performed)

Second argument

-primary (specifies that the active node is the target)

Third argument

Shared folder name on the shared disk

Example: K:\shared\SSO

The following shows an example of the command that performs post-maintenance setup:

cscript.exe $SSO_BIN\ssoclustersetup.vbs -aftermaint -primary K:\shared\SSO

If an error occurs, correct it with reference to the message that appears. After you have corrected the error, re-execute the command.

(2) Maintenance on the standby node

The procedure for maintenance on the standby node consists of the following steps:

  1. Pre-maintenance setup

  2. SSO maintenance

  3. Post-maintenance setup

Each step of the above procedure is described below.

(a) Pre-maintenance setup

Execute the cluster environment setting command (ssoclustersetup.vbs) to perform the pre-maintenance setup for the SSO cluster environment on the standby node. For details about the cluster environment setting command, see ssoclustersetup.vbs (Windows only) in 5. Commands.

For the arguments of the cluster environment setting command, specify values as shown in the following table:

Argument

Value to be specified

First argument

-beforemaint (specifies that pre-maintenance setup is to be performed)

Second argument

-secondary (specifies that the standby node is the target)

Third argument

Shared folder name on the shared disk

Example: K:\shared\SSO

The following shows an example of the command that performs pre-maintenance setup:

cscript.exe $SSO_BIN\ssoclustersetup.vbs -beforemaint -secondary K:\shared\SSO

If an error occurs, correct it with reference to the message that appears. After you have corrected the error, re-execute the command.

(b) SSO maintenance

Perform overwrite installation or upgrade-installation of SSO. Alternatively, apply patches to SSO.

(c) Post-maintenance setup

Execute the cluster environment setting command (ssoclustersetup.vbs) to perform post-maintenance setup for the SSO cluster environment on the standby node. For details about the cluster environment setting command, see ssoclustersetup.vbs (Windows only) in 5. Commands.

For the arguments of the cluster environment setting command, specify values as shown in the following table:

Argument

Value to be specified

First argument

-aftermaint (specifies that post-maintenance setup is to be performed)

Second argument

-secondary (specifies that the standby node is the target)

Third argument

Shared folder name on the shared disk

Example: K:\shared\SSO

The following shows an example of the command that performs post-maintenance setup:

cscript.exe $SSO_BIN\ssoclustersetup.vbs -aftermaint -secondary K:\shared\SSO

If an error occurs, correct it with reference to the message that appears. After you have corrected the error, re-execute the command.
