Cluster IP Address and Port Properties
The Cluster IP address is assigned when you install Novell Cluster Services.
The Cluster IP address normally does need to be changed, but can be if
needed.
The default cluster port number is 7023, and is automatically assigned when
the cluster is created. The cluster port number does not need to be changed
unless a conflict is created by another resource using the same port number. If
there is a port number conflict, change the Port number to any other value that
doesn’t cause a conflict.
Using ConsoleOne
Right-click the cluster object.
Click Properties.
On the Cluster Object property page, select the Management tab.
Using NetWare Remote Manager
On the left column under the Clustering section, click Cluster Config.
Select the Cluster object name.
Click IP Address.
Resource Priority
The Resource Priority allows you to control the order in which multiple
resources start on a given node when the cluster is brought up or during a
failover or failback. For example, if a node fails and two resources fail over to
another node, the resource priority determines which resource loads first.
This is useful for ensuring that the most critical resources load first and are
available to users before less critical resources.
Uusing ConsoleOne
Right-click the cluster object.
Click Properties.
On the Cluster Object property page, select the Resource Priority tab.
