Creating a cluster environment

Procedure

For cluster environments:

• To configure a DB2 Everyplace Server Cluster in WAS Version 5.0, the Network Deployment manager needs to be installed and started. Network Deployment is installed as a separate package, and care should be taken to ensure that the ports assigned to the deployment manager will not conflict with existing or future servers if it will be installed on the same machine as the base installation of WAS.
• Each node in a cluster must have a copy of DB2 Everyplace installed with the Multiple Server Configuration installation option before creating the cluster.
• Ensure that your mirror databases, source databases, the Sync Server message database, and the DB2 Everyplace Sync Server control database are configured before continuing.

Creating DB2 Everyplace in a cluster environment involves three steps:

• Adding the server nodes
• Creating the cluster
• Adding new servers to the cluster
