RE: Cluster licenses -- what if I break the cluster will they sti ll w ork?
by Art Hebert 27 Mar '02

27 Mar '02

I thought the license keys were different for every machine. Are you saying I can use the license key for one machine on another. Aren't they tied to serialnumbers? I didn't setup the netapps so not sure if they just used one set for each head in the cluster. My other cluster has a different license (though both heads of that cluster have the same license). Anybody else out there with a cluster, what does is listed when you run license on each head? I figure we will get a 15% improvement in performance if I break the heads. How much performance improvement have people seen when they have moved from 100mb to gig? art -----Original Message----- From: kevin graham [mailto:kgraham@dotnetdotcom.org] Sent: Tuesday, March 26, 2002 4:44 PM To: Art Hebert Cc: 'toasters(a)mathworks.com' Subject: Re: Cluster licenses -- what if I break the cluster will they still w ork? > I have a Netapp F760 cluster that I may want to seperate for > performance reasons. Keep in mind you won't gain that much. You'll double the write cache, but that's about it. If you need more disk bandwidth, toy w/ 3rd party adapters -- it'd be too easy compared w/ losing clustering. > I noticed they have the same license when I run the license command. This is undoubtedly an error -- cluster partners are issued their own licenses (except cluster license... can't remember there) -- someone probably didn't bother looking for the other sheet of license keys. > Will they both continue to work seperately if I disconnect the cluster > connections? Should work fine, though you probably should open a support case to see if someone can dig up the proper license keys for you to avoid trouble in the future. ..kg..

I have a Netapp F760 cluster that I may want to seperate for performance reasons. I noticed they have the same license when I run the license command. Will they both continue to work seperately if I disconnect the cluster connections? Thanks art

If total disks !eq to active plus spare disk, then there is a failure. Have you thought about using syslog and triggering on an event? As Jay's Email implied, we forward syslog (and auditlog) events to our loghosts and do misc. processing on them using Swatch, with auto-notification of "interesting" events. I don't know if the specific issue you had triggered a syslog event, but you might check your logs to see if something was there. Just a thought, alek

Hmm, this seems to happen almost as often as not -- I am fairly aggressive on upgrading, due to obscure problems with SAN Backup, so I suspect that the bug has not yet been corrected. (I was told earlier this year that it was an unpublished bug) When it comes to the script mentioned earlier, I would suggest that the script somehow stores the value from the prevous run, and then report an error if the number decreases - that is at least what I am planning to do Real Soon Now(tm). >>>>>>>>>>>>.rune -- Rune Bakken Senior System Administrator Telenor Business Company (Nextra), IP-Services Ph: +47 22 77 03 93
