7 1 Preparing to install P6000 Cluster Extension This chapter provides information about general environment considerations and pre-installation requirements. Ideal environment The ideal configuration environment consists of at least five servers (two at each data center site and one as an arbitrator at a third site) with separate, redundant communications links for cluster heartbeats, client access, and HP P6000 Continuous Access. All communications interfaces must be installed in pairs to serve as failover components, in order to prevent single points of failure. Network communication requirements When using P6000 Cluster Extension, note the following: Network communications links and components between the dispersed data centers must be redundant and physically routed differently to prevent the backhoe issue that is created when all links between data centers are cut together. This redundancy and routing is especially important to prevent the split-brain syndrome that occurs when systems in both data centers form new clusters and allow access to both copies of the data. Using redundant and separately routed communications and components, you can configure the failover behavior so that the application service startup procedure stops if none of the remote cluster members can be reached. Alternative pathing software such as HP Secure Path for Windows operating systems must be used for host-to-storage connections. Linux clusters might have specific network latency requirements. For more information, see the SLE HA and RHCS documentation. Data backup requirements To ensure reliable data backup between the local (primary) and remote (secondary) storage systems, at least two P6000 Continuous Access links must be available when the storage systems are connected to provide redundancy and protection against single points of failure. Although communications links can cover considerable distances, each network segment must be extended to the dispersed data center to maintain a heartbeat among all servers. For extended distances, you must purchase extender components to bundle the P6000 Continuous Access links. Recommendation Use two systems at each site to give local application service failover procedures among local cluster systems priority over remote, more time-consuming failover procedures. When failing over, the software must reconfigure the storage systems to change the mirroring direction. At the remote site, two systems should be available in case the primary failover system experiences a hardware or power failure. HP P6000 Cluster Extension Software Installation Guide 7

8 Windows: Using an MNS quorum requires an odd number of cluster nodes, with at least one system in a third location. Linux: For SLE HA and RHCS data backup requirements, see the SLE HA and RHCS documentation. CAUTION: P6000 Cluster Extension works with one server at each location, with a single I/O path between the server and storage system, and a single link between storage systems. However, any configuration with a single point of failure is not considered highly available or disaster tolerant. HP does not support configurations with single points of failure; configurations with one system at each location are supported only if there are no single points of failure. How P6000 Cluster Extension Software interacts with its environment This section describes the ways in which P6000 Cluster Extension interacts with its in environment. Failover function P6000 Cluster Extension Software requires cluster software to automatically fail over among systems on a local site or between sites. Because the software manipulates the application startup process before storage system vdisks are accessed, it must be integrated as the first resource (in the order of resources). The software must be installed on all servers in the cluster that can run the application service. How P6000 Cluster Extension utilizes vdisks To write to P6000 Continuous Access paired vdisks, you must make sure the paired vdisks are in read/write mode. DR group members (paired vdisks) are usually in read/write mode on the source (primary) vdisk only. The destination (secondary) vdisk is in read-only mode. In case of a failover, P6000 Cluster Extension Software automatically changes the direction of the mirrored pair. A reboot of the server is not necessary. In case of a disaster, the storage system can have several different states for DR group members. P6000 Cluster Extension Software determines whether those vdisks can be accessed and made available to the application service. How P6000 Cluster Extension stores information P6000 Cluster Extension stores information about the application environment in an internal object database and uses HP P6000/EVA SMI-S to gather information about the state of the associated DR group members. Information about the configured storage system environment and failover behavior is transferred either directly by the cluster software or by gathering it from the user configuration file. An internal object database provides the software with the format and default value of supported parameters. Vdisk states are stored in the internal object database, which uses a rule engine to process those DR group member states. The rule engine matches current DR group member states and configuration parameters with a defined rule, stores it in the database, and invokes predefined actions. Those actions prepare the DR group member vdisks to be enabled for access or stop the application service startup process if the matching rule requires a stop. 8 Preparing to install P6000 Cluster Extension

9 . General installation prerequisites This section describes general installation prerequisites for P6000 Cluster Extension. Environmental setup Ensure that the following conditions are met before installing P6000 Cluster Extension Software: P6000 Continuous Access links (including extender hardware) are redundant and bidirectional. Alternate I/O paths between servers and the P6000/EVA storage system are set up. Cluster and client networks are redundant. Cluster nodes can communicate with each other (not required for Windows Server 2003). The latest supported software and firmware versions, fixes, FC adapter firmware, and driver versions for your servers and P6000/EVA storage systems are installed. The cluster nodes in your zoning configuration each recognize their respective (local) P6000/EVA array, but not the remote P6000/EVA array. Each management server recognizes both P6000/EVA arrays and can recognize each other. Figure 1 on page 9 shows a zoning example.

11 2 Installing P6000 Cluster Extension Software for Windows This chapter describes the installation of P6000 Cluster Extension in MSCS environments with HP P6000/EVA disk arrays. This version of P6000 Cluster Extension allows you to install, uninstall, modify, and repair P6000 Cluster Extension on all of the nodes in a cluster by running the installer from one node in the cluster. This feature is not available for performing P6000 Cluster Extension upgrade procedures. When upgrading, you must run the installation package separately on each cluster node. NOTE: For information on configuring P6000 Cluster Extension in an MSCS environment, see the HP P6000 Cluster Extension Software Administrator Guide. Prerequisites Before installing P6000 Cluster Extension, perform the following tasks: 1. Check General installation prerequisites on page 9 to make sure your setup meets the general pre-installation requirements. 2. Perform the required Windows pre-installation procedures. For instructions, see Pre-installation procedures on page Download the P6000 Cluster Extension Software installer. a. Browse to b. Click Storage and NAS in the product category list. c. Follow the on-screen instructions to download the installer. Pre-installation procedures This section describes the procedures you must perform to prepare the data centers for P6000 Cluster Extension installation and configuration. Perform these procedures before you install P6000 Cluster Extension. 1. Checking the IP network setup and SAN configuration, page Installing multipath software, page Installing and configuring the JRE, page Installing and configuring HP P6000/EVA SMI-S on all management servers, page Configuring the HP P6000/EVA storage system, page Creating hosts, page 13 HP P6000 Cluster Extension Software Installation Guide 11

12 7. Creating vdisks and adding a LUN presentation, page Creating DR groups, page Setting read-only mode and adding a LUN presentation to the destination vdisk, page Installing MSCS on all nodes, page 15 Checking the IP network setup and SAN configuration Verify that your IP network setup and SAN configuration meet the following requirements: For Windows Server 2003 only, MSCS requires that a single IP subnet be dispersed over all sites in a disaster-tolerant cluster setup. This enables the cluster to exchange heartbeat (alive) messages between all cluster nodes. P6000 Cluster Extension requires a cluster environment in which one location failure will not cause the entire cluster to shut down. In an MNS quorum cluster, all nodes must be distributed so that an equal number of nodes are located in the local and remote data centers and an additional node in a third location functions as a tiebreaker or arbitrator. The third location can be a separate room in a separate fire protection zone with separate power connections. The arbitrator node can act as a regular cluster node and can be connected to one of the storage systems. However, a connection to either storage system is not necessary for the node to act as a tiebreaker. SAN fabrics can be extended to allow for array-based data replication. Consult the HP P6000 Continuous Access Implementation Guide and the HP SAN Design Reference Guide for supported SAN extension configuration and instructions on setting up your HP P6000 Continuous Access environment. P6000 Cluster Extension Software works in dispersed data center environments with a separation distance of up to 500 km or a round-trip latency of up to 20 ms. Installing multipath software You must use multipath software to take advantage of the I/O path failover feature, a feature that is not available with Windows operating systems. Install the multipath software on the cluster system before connecting the system to the second I/O path. Depending on the array model, use HP Secure Path or HP MPIO Full Featured DSM for Windows. Installing and configuring the JRE To install the product license using the HP AutoPass GUI, you must first install the JRE. See the AutoPass documentation for the latest supported JRE versions. NOTE: This step is required only if you want to use the AutoPass GUI to manage license keys. If you do not install the JRE, you can use the P6000 Cluster Extension registration tool to install license keys. For more information about using the registration tool, see Using the P6000 Cluster Extension registration tool (Windows only) on page Installing P6000 Cluster Extension Software for Windows

13 Installing and configuring HP P6000/EVA SMI-S on all management servers Install the HP P6000/EVA SMI-S server component on all of the management servers that run the HP P6000 Command View software. Review the HP P6000 Command View Installation Guide and the HP P6000 Command View Release Notes to set the access properties. When you configure P6000 Cluster Extension, you will need the following HP SMI-S information: HP SMI-S server name and IP address Port number The default is 5989 with SSL enabled, and 5988 with SSL disabled. User name Password SSL use (yes or no) Configuring the HP P6000/EVA storage system For detailed information on configuring the HP P6000/EVA storage system, see the HP P6000 Command View User Guide or the HP Storage System Scripting Utility Reference. You can also consult your HP service representative for further assistance, including help with creating a geographically dispersed cluster environment. Creating hosts Before you can assign disk storage to a cluster node, you must create a host entry for the locally connected server/node on each HP P6000/EVA storage system. For detailed information, see the HP P6000 Command View User Guide or the HP Storage System Scripting Utility Reference. Creating vdisks and adding a LUN presentation Create the storage (vdisks) for your application data using the SSSU or the P6000 Command View GUI, and then present the vdisks to the cluster nodes connected to that P6000/EVA array. NOTE: Later in this installation process, you will create a LUN presentation for your remote destination vdisk and set the access mode property for the destination vdisk to read-only. See Setting read-only mode and adding a LUN presentation to the destination vdisk on page 14. For detailed instructions, see the HP P6000 Command View User Guide or the HP Storage System Scripting Utility Reference. HP P6000 Cluster Extension Software Installation Guide 13

14 Creating DR groups Before you can use P6000 Cluster Extension, you must create a DR group that includes your previously created vdisk(s). When you create the DR group with a local vdisk (or vdisks), a replica of the vdisk(s) on the remote destination storage system is created automatically. The disk pair is called a DR group member or copy set. When you create a DR group, note the following: Set Write mode to Synchronous or Asynchronous. Enhanced asynchronous mode is supported by P6000 Cluster Extension for Windows and later. For complete information on which write modes are supported on each version of controller software, see the HP Enterprise Virtual Array Compatibility Reference. For information on choosing a write mode, see the HP P6000 Continuous Access Implementation Guide. Set Failsafe mode to either Disabled or Enabled. NOTE: Failsafe mode can be set to Enabled only when the Write mode is set to Synchronous. HP recommends that you do not enable Suspend mode when you create DR groups for use with P6000 Cluster Extension. If the replication IO is suspended for a DR group (for example, through P6000 Command View) during a P6000 Cluster Extension resource failover, the Cluster Extension behavior is undefined. For detailed information, see the HP P6000 Command View User Guide or the HP Storage System Scripting Utility Reference. Setting read-only mode and adding a LUN presentation to the destination vdisk To complete setup of HP P6000 Continuous Access, perform these tasks: 1. Set access mode to read-only for the destination vdisk. You must use SSSU to set this property. 2. Add a LUN presentation to your remote cluster node. NOTE: HP recommends that you use the same LUN for all servers in the cluster. This step assumes that you have created your remote host entry on the destination storage system as described in Creating hosts on page 13. For detailed instructions, see the HP P6000 Command View User Guide or the HP Storage System Scripting Utility Reference. 14 Installing P6000 Cluster Extension Software for Windows

15 Installing MSCS on all nodes This section describes the steps for installing MSCS on the cluster nodes. 1. Before installing MSCS, create your disk configuration through the Disk Manager. If the disks are not visible, re-scan your disks in the Disk Manager. NOTE: You may need to shut down all but one server on the source storage system to successfully configure your disks in the Disk Manager. Errors may occur during partitioning and formatting because all servers that you present the same disk to on the local storage will compete for access to the disk. This will not happen after the cluster software is installed and you have formatted or partitioned the disk(s). In rare cases, certain FC drivers will show disk access errors in the event log (event ID 51) when the disk access is set to read-only. This can be ignored for read-only destination disks and should not occur after P6000 Cluster Extension is installed. You must reboot the server(s) on the destination storage system or re-scan the disks in the Disk Manager before and after installing the cluster software, and when you add storage in read-only mode on the destination side. 2. Install MSCS on all cluster nodes. 3. Select Majority Node Set quorum as the cluster's quorum resource. Quorum disks as a quorum resource are not supported with P6000 Cluster Extension Software. 4. Windows Server 2008/2008 R2 only: Run the Microsoft ClusPrep tool to validate your cluster. If the Failover Cluster Validation Report lists a failed storage test, you can ignore this error. For more information, see the following Microsoft TechNet document: windowsserver2008/en/library/b153c638-ff b b8dcc61033.mspx?mfr= true. After the cluster software is installed, you can install P6000 Cluster Extension Software on all cluster nodes that have an FC connection to the local or remote P6000/EVA array and are used to access storage resources on the P6000/EVA array. For installation instructions, follow the procedure in Installing P6000 Cluster Extension Software for Windows on page 15. If the system that acts as an arbitrator or tiebreaker is not connected to either P6000/EVA array, you do not need to install the software on that cluster node. Installing P6000 Cluster Extension Software for Windows P6000 Cluster Extension Software provides a standard InstallShield wizard for Windows. The setup program includes integration with MSCS and the generic software interface. The installer includes the following features: Resource DLL (clxevamscs.dll) Cluster administrator extension DLL (clxevamscsex.dll) CLI (clxevarun.exe) P6000 Cluster Extension documentation HP P6000 Cluster Extension Software Installation Guide 15

16 You can use the CLI for custom cluster software integration. For example, you can write your own online and offline scripts using advanced DR group status checking options. NOTE: Installing the CLI is not required if you are using P6000 Cluster Extension Software with MSCS. To install P6000 Cluster Extension: 1. Make sure that the cluster service is running. 2. Make sure that the cluster management application is not running on the cluster nodes where you plan to install P6000 Cluster Extension.

If you have unregistered the cluster resource type from one of the other cluster nodes, click No. The Uninstall Complete window appears. 8. Click Finish. Troubleshooting installation and maintenance problems This section helps you locate and identify installation and maintenance problems. The cluster-wide installation feature allows you to install P6000 Cluster Extension on multiple nodes in a cluster by running the installer from one node in the cluster. Cluster-wide installation is no different than local installation on each individual node. Cluster-wide installation can fail to obtain the remote installation status if a remote node becomes unreachable. This can happen if the network connection or remote cluster node fails. If this type of failure occurs, find the error code in the file %WINDIR%\CLXSetup_nodename.result, available on the unreachable node, and then locate the error in Table 1. In addition to showing the results of the installation process, the.result file helps you identify the status of remote maintenance if cluster level maintenance (modify, repair, remove) fails. NOTE: If the.result file is not found on the remote cluster node, run the P6000 Cluster Extension setup by logging on to the remote cluster node locally. If you receive an error similar to Another installation is already in progress, then stop the process IDriver.exe (and msiexec.exe), or reboot the node and rerun the P6000 Cluster Extension setup locally. Example If you start a cluster-wide installation on Node1 of a 3-node cluster, with all nodes selected for installation, and the network connection to Node2 and Node3 is lost by Node1, then the cluster-wide installation process cannot get the status of the remote node installation. In this situation, use the %WINDIR%\CLXSetup_nodename.result file to obtain the remote node installation status. To check the.result file for the remote nodes, log on to Node2 and Node3, and access the file %WINDIR%\CLXSetup_nodename.result on each node. Compare the errors in the file to the information in Table 1. HP P6000 Cluster Extension Software Installation Guide 25

26 NOTE: If cluster installation fails with the message Could not get the system drive for the cluster node... or Setup was unable to run the installation in remote machine..., confirm that the WMI service is running. To use the P6000 Cluster Extension cluster-wide installation feature, the WMI service must be running.
