After you install a high availability server on Windows, you must configure
the master server and the high availability server for use with Microsoft Cluster Service.
To configure high availability:
- For any required resources, such as the storage device
on which you installed the IBM® Content
Analytics with Enterprise Search data
directory, make the resources online on the master server.
- On the master server, log in as the IBM Content
Analytics with Enterprise Search administrator and run the ES_INSTALL_ROOT\bin\esharesource.vbs file
to create a cluster service for IBM Content
Analytics with Enterprise Search. On a Windows 2008 server, you must log in as a Windows Administrator.
- On the backup server, log in as the IBM Content
Analytics with Enterprise Search administrator and run the ES_INSTALL_ROOT\bin\esharesource.vbs file
to add the backup server as the owner of the IBM Content
Analytics with Enterprise Search cluster service. On
a Windows 2008 server, you must log in as the Windows Administrator.
- In Microsoft Cluster
Service, create a resource group that contains the master server and
backup server, and make dependencies on any other required resource
such as the storage device on which you installed the IBM Content
Analytics with Enterprise Search data directory.
- Bring the IBM Content
Analytics with Enterprise Search cluster
resource online.
After you configure the servers for use with Microsoft Cluster Service, use the administration
console on the master server to add the high availability server to
the system as a backup server.
