Task 5: Configure and Start Expand-Over-ServerNet
Lines
4. Check the link-alive LED near each PIC port. The link-alive LEDs should light a few
seconds after each cable is connected at both ends. If the link-alive LEDs do not
light:
•
Try reconnecting the cable, using care to align the key on the cable plug with
the PIC connector.
•
Make sure the dust caps are removed from the cable ends.
•
If possible, try connecting a different cable.
5. Continue until all of the cables are connected.
Task 5: Configure and Start Expand-Over-ServerNet Lines
To configure and start Expand-over-ServerNet lines between the three star groups of
the tri-star topology, use the guided procedure for configuring a ServerNet node.
Unless the automatic line-handler configuration feature is enabled, you must run the
guided procedure on every node in order to configure and start Expand-over-ServerNet
lines to all other nodes.
From the system console of that node, for TSM, choose Start>Programs>Compaq
TSM>Guided Configuration Tools>Configure ServerNet Node. For OSM, the
guided procedure is launched from within the OSM Service Connection by performing
the Add Node to ServerNet Cluster action from the System object. Online help is
available to assist you in performing the procedure.
Task 6: Verify Operation of the Cluster Switches
Use the OSM Service Connection or TSM Service Application to verify the operation of
the cluster switches:
1. Log on to a node in the range of ServerNet node numbers 1 through 8, and use the
OSM Service Connection or TSM Service Application to verify the operation of the
local X-fabric and Y-fabric cluster switches (X1 and Y1).
2. Log on to a node in the range of ServerNet node numbers 9 through 16, and use
the OSM Service Connection or TSM Service Application to verify the operation of
the local X-fabric and Y-fabric cluster switches (X2 and Y2).
3. Log on to a node in the range of ServerNet node numbers 17 through 24, and use
the OSM Service Connection or TSM Service Application to verify the operation of
the local X-fabric and Y-fabric cluster switches (X3 and Y3).
