Registering Systems to Install High Availability Packages
-
Each node in the cluster must have the appropriate subscriptions for RHEL and the High Availability Add On or Resilient Storage Add On.
-
Each node in the cluster must have the appropriate repository enabled with Red Hat Subscription Manager. The repository should correspond to the RHEL version and optionally the extended support level of the systems.
RHEL8
Repository: rhel-8-for-x86_64-highavailability-rpms
RHEL 7
Repository: rhel-ha-for-rhel-7-server-rpms
RHEL 6
Repository: rhel-ha-for-rhel-6-server-rpms
Registering Systems to Install Resilient Storage Packages
-
Each node in the cluster must have the appropriate subscriptions for RHEL and the Resilient Storage Add On.
-
Optionally, if the cluster will require packages enabling shared storage support, such as for GFS2,
lvm2-cluster
(clvmd
),cmirror
,ctdb
, etc, then all nodes will also need to have the appropriate repository enabled with Red Hat Subscription Manager. The repository should correspond to the RHEL version and optionally the extended support level of the systems.
RHEL 8
Repository: rhel-8-for-x86_64-resilientstorage-rpms
RHEL 7
Repository: rhel-rs-for-rhel-7-server-rpms
RHEL 6
Repository: rhel-rs-for-rhel-6-server-rpms
Installing Packages Using the Conga Cluster Administration Server in RHEL 6
- If the RHEL 6 cluster in question will be configured and administered by Conga, an option is provided to install packages automatically during initial setup. A
luci
server will first need to be installed and started either on one cluster node or a dedicated system:
# yum install luci
- On all cluster nodes the
ricci
package must also be installed for theluci
server to communicate with:
# yum install ricci
- After
luci
andricci
have been configured and started, the Conga web interface can be used to set up nodes and install the necessary packages.
NOTE: Conga is not available in RHEL 7 or 8. Packages must be installed using yum on this release.
Installing Packages using yum
- To manually install the High Availability / Clustering packages in RHEL 6, 7 or 8:
# yum groupinstall 'High Availability'
- To manually install the Resilient Storage packages in RHEL 6, 7 or 8:
# yum groupinstall 'Resilient Storage'
