Hitachi Global Link Manager Software Installation and Configuration Guide

Types of Global Link Manager Cluster Installations
This section describes the types of Global Link Manager installations in a
cluster environment.
There are five types of Global Link Manager installations in a cluster
environment:
• Setting up a Global Link Manager cluster for a new installation
• Setting up a Global Link Manager cluster for a reinstallation or version
upgrade installation
• Setting up a Global Link Manager cluster for an existing installation
• Setting up a Global Link Manager cluster for a new installation in an
environment where other Hitachi Command Suite products are running in
a cluster configuration
• Setting up a Global Link Manager cluster for removal
When you perform each installation, see the following subsections.

Note:
• On all nodes that make up a cluster, the disk configuration must be the
same, and the installation folder for Global Link Manager must have the
same name (including the drive letter and path name).
• When you change the Global Link Manager server settings after the
installation in a cluster environment, specify the same settings on all
nodes.
