IP Storage Router SR2122-2 User Guide

2. When the storage router restarts, it communicates with other member of the

cluster to obtain current cluster configuration information. Once the storage
router is completely restarted, verify the new cluster configuration. Issue the
show cluster

command to verify the cluster name and confirm that the

storage router is exchanging heartbeats with the other member of the cluster.

3. To verify that both storage routers in the cluster include the same

configuration, issue the following commands from the principal storage router
in the cluster:

show accesslist all from bootconfig

show scsirouter all from bootconfig

show vlan

show vtp

Issue the same commands from the storage router just added to the cluster.
The displays should be the same.

4. Complete additional system configuration of the storage router just added to

the cluster, as needed. For example:

Use the Setup Access Configuration Wizard to configure passwords for
the storage router.

Use the Setup Netmgmt Configuration Wizard to configure the storage
router for network management via SNMP.

Use the Setup Time Configuration Wizard to configure the storage
router date and time, and optional NTP server information.

Use the CLI or GUI to configure AAA authentication. See

Chapter 10,

“Configuring Authentication”

for additional information.

5. Save any changes to the configuration by issuing the appropriate save

command with the bootconfig keyword, which updates the bootable
configuration for the storage router and notifies all storage routers in the
cluster of the configuration changes.

6. To divide the workload between the storage routers in the cluster, you can

manually failover selected SCSI routing instances using the
failover scsirouter

command. For additional information about

failing over SCSI routing instances, refer to

Controlling SCSI Routing

Instances in a Cluster

” on page 187 and

Chapter 12, “Maintaining and

Managing the Storage Router”
