3.2. APC Fence Device Components to Configure
This procedure configures an APC switch as a fence device that will be used for each node in cluster
apcclust. Then the procedure configures that switch as the fencing device for clusternode1.example.com, clusternode2.example.com, and clusternode1.example.com.
Table 3.2, “Fence Device Components to Configure for APC Fence Device” summarizes the components of the APC fence device that this procedure configures for each of the cluster nodes in
clusternode1.example.com.
| Fence Device Component | Value | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Fencing Type | APC Power Switch | type of fencing device to configure |
| Name | apcfence | name of the APC fencing device |
| IP address | 10.15.86.96 | IP address of the APC switch to configure as a fence device for node1.example.com, node2.example.com, and node3.example.com |
| login | apclogin | login value for the APC switch that controls the power for for clusternode1.example.com, clusternode2.example.com, and clusternode3.example.com |
| password | apcpword | password for the APC switch that controls the power for for clusternode1.example.com, clusternode2.example.com, and clusternode3.example.com |
Table 3.3, “Fence Agent Components to Specify for Each Node in apcclust ” summarizes the components of the APC fence device that you must specify for the cluster nodes in
apcclust.
| Fence Agent Component | Value | Description |
|---|---|---|
| fence device | apcfence | name of the APC fence device you defined as a shared device |
| port | 1 | port number on the APC switch for node1.example.com |
| port | 2 | port number on the APC switch for node2.example.com |
| port | 3 | port number on the APC switch for node3.example.com |
The remainder of the fence device components that you configure for each node appear automatically when you specify that you will be configuring the
apcfence fence device that you previously defined as a shared fence device.
