Installing Network Configuration Manager with the Cluster installation

Follow these steps to install Network Configuration Manager with the Cluster module.

Step	Task
1	Obtain both the Network Configuration Manager Installer and the Network Configuration Manager Cluster Module installer.
2	Place these files onto the server.
3	Create the [Product directory] directory using: mkdir [Product directory]
4	Mount the shared disk array device to [Product directory] using: mount <device> [Product directory] For example: mount /dev/sdb1 [Product directory] Note: Ensure you have access to Installing Network Configuration Manager on Linux to complete the next step.
5	Ensure that SELinux is disabled.
6	Install Tomcat on the shared partition. If you are using the install.sh script to install the product, use the -b <shared mount point> argument to automatically install Tomcat under the shared partition. For example: ./install.sh -b /opt/smarts-ncm
7	Run the Network Configuration Manager installer as described in Chapter 5, “Installation procedures (Linux platform),”.
8	When the installation is complete, run the Network Configuration Manager Cluster Module installer using one of the following commands: For the Console Interface mode use: ./NCM_x_x_x_xxx_Cluster_linux-x64.bin –i console For the GUI Interface mode use: ./NCM_x_x_x_xxx_Cluster_linux-x64.bin –i gui
9	If you are not installing the first server in the cluster, skip this step, and proceed to step 10. If you are installing the first server in the cluster, run the following command to delete the files from the shared storage, so the second server can successfully install on that same storage device. rm –rf [Product directory]/* Note: Only remove the contents of the [Product directory]. Do not delete the directory itself, as it will be the mount point.
10	For Application server installations, modify the $VOYENCE_HOME/ncmcore/webapps/voyence/powerup.jnlp file, and change the IP address (that appears several times in that file) to the virtual IP address of the cluster. You can accomplish this with a global search and replace.
11	Unmount [Product directory] using: umount [Product Directory] Note: If the error message “device is busy” displays when attempting to unmount [Product directory], first find and stop the processes that are running in the directory using the lsof [Mount Point] command, and then run the umount [Product Directory] command.
12	Repeat steps 1 through 9 for each server in the cluster.
