3.6.0 Matrix Server Installation Guide (5697-7079, February 2008)

Chapter 3: Install PolyServe Matrix Server 38

Matrix Server then fences the servers in accordance with the method you

specified on the SAN & Fencing tab. If the correct server is not fenced,

you will need to check the configuration. For example, if you specified a

pattern for the Remote Management Controller, the server may not be

configured to use that pattern.

If an incorrect hostname or IP address was specified for the Remote

Management Controller associated with the server, export the matrix

configuration to that server again and then supply the correct

information.

Install the Stand-Alone Management

Console

For convenience, the matrix can be managed from a separate

administrative station rather than from a server in the matrix. To allow

you to do this, the Management Console and mx utility are provided in a

separate package (MxConsole_3.6.0.<xxxx>.msi) that can be installed on

PCs outside the matrix.

System Requirements

Systems must meet these requirements:

• Pentium-compatible processor or later

• 64 MB memory

• Windows 2000, Windows XP, or Windows 2003

Install and Start the Management Console

To install the stand-alone Management Console, locate the file

MxConsole_3.6.0.<xxxx>.msi on the distribution CD or in your download

location. Double-click the file and then run the Installation Wizard. To

start the stand-alone Management Console, select Start > Programs >

PolyServe > Matrix Server Console.
