Assisted Integration Using SmartStart (Recommended)

IMPORTANT:

upgrade the system ROM on each node with the latest ROMPAQ from the Compaq website at http://www.compaq.com/support.

Prior to the installation of Microsoft Windows 2000 Advanced Server,

Use the SmartStart Assisted Integration procedure to configure the servers (nodes) in the HA/F100 configuration. You will set up two nodes during this process. Go through all steps on each of the nodes with noted exceptions. The following steps will take you through the SmartStart Assisted Integration procedure.

CAUTION:

Cluster-Specific SmartStart Installation

Installation using SmartStart assumes that SmartStart is being

The SmartStart setup poster describes the general flow of configuring and installing software on a single node. The installation for a Compaq ProLiant Cluster HA/F100 will be very similar. The difference between running SmartStart on a stand-alone node and running SmartStart for a cluster is that you can configure the shared drives using the Compaq Array Configuration Utility. For cluster configuration, configure the drives on the first node, and then accept the same settings for the shared drives if given the option on the second node.

Assisted Integration Steps

To install your cluster using the Assisted Integration path, follow these steps:

IMPORTANT:

Power up your hardware in the following manner:

Select the Assisted Integration installation path. Follow the steps

outlined in the SmartStart Setup Poster.

Node 2 must be powered off when setting up Node 1.

Storage hub (power is applied when the AC cord is plugged in)

Shared storage (wait for drives to spin up)

Power up Node 1 and place the SmartStart CD in the CD-ROM drive. The CD will automatically run.

Microsoft Windows NT Server 4.0,

Enterprise Edition, to Windows 2000

This chapter outlines the migration from Microsoft Windows NT Server 4.0, Enterprise Edition to Windows 2000 Advanced Server for the Compaq ProLiant Cluster HA/F100. Use this information with the Microsoft Windows 2000 Advanced Server documentation.

Premigration Concerns

Chapter

Advanced Server Migration

The cluster can be migrated to Windows 2000 Advanced Server without migrating the primary domain controller. However, if the cluster is used as a backup domain controller, the primary domain controller must be migrated first. For more detailed information on migrating domain controllers, refer to your Microsoft Windows 2000 Advanced Server documentation included with your operating system purchase.

Compaq ProLiant Cluster HA/F100 for Microsoft Windows 2000 Advanced Server Supplement Guide

Migrating the Cluster

To migrate your cluster, follow these steps:

1. Move all of the cluster groups, including the cluster group, to Node 2.

NOTE:

For help on moving cluster groups, refer the Microsoft documentation that came

with your operating system.

2. Upgrade Node 1 to Windows 2000 Advanced Server.

a. Run the Compaq Windows 2000 Primer Utility to remove any

conflicting device drivers or applications that may cause problems during the install or operation of Windows 2000 Advanced Server. The Primer Utility can be downloaded from the Compaq website (

http://www.compaq.com/partners/microsoft/

run, you will be asked to reboot the node to finish the cleanup process.

b. Once the node has been rebooted, insert the Windows 2000

Advanced Server CD into the CD-ROM drive. If the Autorun feature for CDs has been turned off, select Start and then Run. At the prompt type X:\Setup.exe, where X is the drive letter of your CD-ROM drive. When asked if you want to upgrade Windows, select Yes.

c. Follow on-screen instructions for the End User License Agreement

and your Microsoft Windows 2000 Advanced Server Product Key.

d. The install process is completely automated and does not require any

intervention until you are required to log on to the node.

e. Configure Windows 2000 Advanced Server.

). After the Primer has

NOTE:

After the upgrade is complete, the Cluster Service will fail to start. This is because the DNS client for Node 1 has not been set up. The problem that occurs is an authentication error with the user account used to start the Cluster Service. The error message is expected and will be resolved after the DNS client is set up.

f. Set up the DNS client on Node 1.

g. After the DNS client setup is complete, select Start and then

Shutdown. At the shutdown screen, select Log Off Administrator, then log back on to the machine. This ensures that the domain controller has properly authenticated the machine and user ID.

i. After the installation is completed, the Compaq Support Paq window

will reflect the drivers that were updated and the drivers that were not installed due to a current version of the driver on the node or due to a lack of hardware on the node.

j. To confirm that Cluster Service has started and Node 1 has rejoined

the cluster, open Cluster Administrator by clicking on Start, Programs, Administrative Tools, Cluster Administrator. As the Cluster Administrator opens, an error will be reported. This error is a result of the additional resources Windows 2000 Advanced Server offers in Cluster Service. This error will go away when Node 2 is upgraded to Windows 2000 Advanced Server. Select Yes To All on the error dialog box to open Cluster Administrator.

3. Move all resources to Node 1.
