In a highly available environment, you need to perform
additional post-installation steps after installing IBM® Legacy
Content Search Engine.
Important: If you are
configuring a cluster, do not start and stop Windows Services on individual
nodes directly. Configure the cluster software to manage the Windows
Services, then start and stop the Windows Services using the cluster
software.
To complete the IBM Legacy
Content Search Engine installation
in a highly available environment:
- Configure local files to point to the cluster address.
After the installation has been completed on all nodes, the
following files will contain local host names and must be edited to
have the local node names changed to the cluster virtual host name:
- Configure the Microsoft® Cluster Server (MSCS) IBM Legacy
Content Search Engine Resource Group.
After installing
IBM Legacy
Content Search Engine on
your cluster, you must configure the following cluster resources.
These should all be placed in the same Resource or Service group so
that they fail over together:
- Add the following resource dependencies:
- Collections File Share
- Network name
- Collections mount point
- K2 Administration Server / Administration Web Server
- Binary and temporary file shares (if these are clustered resources.
If they are mounted from a remote highly available location, this
is not necessary)
- Collections File Share
- Network Name
