Customizing the Cluster
Platform 4500/3

When the Cluster Platform 4500/3 is shipped from the factory, the Netra 200 AC is
preloaded with all of the necessary software to install the cluster nodes with the
Solaris operating environment and Sun Cluster 3.0 software.

Because all of the cables are connected and labeled in the factory, configuring the
terminal concentrator first will enable the cluster administrator to easily configure
the cluster.

Note –

You must enter the correct parameters for the initial customization, or the

configuration will not initialize properly.

Customizing the Terminal Concentrator

Note –

To produce a console terminal using a laptop computer, refer to Appendix A.

1. Power up the main circuit breaker, and then power up all individual system

components.

2. Provide console connectivity into the terminal concentrator:

a. Disconnect the serial cable (Part No. 9524A) from Port 1 of the terminal

concentrator.

b. Connect the RJ-45 end of the serial cable (Part No. 5121A) to Port 1 of the

terminal concentrator and the other end, DB-25 male, to serial port A of a
Sun™ workstation.

Note –

The
