Classroom Aids for HACMP Class

Here are a few items that I find have been useful to students:

  1. *P*L*A*N*
  2. Work as a team.
  3. Use the hints as hints, not detailed todo lists.
  4. Don't add to the lab until you have completed the class work.
  5. Mark each step in the lab as it is finished.
Usually not needed: 
do not install cluster.hc products
               Tivoli
               HAView
Configure all nodes alike. Even adding documentation to one node and not the other
will cause verify to print out extra warnings. These can
make real problems hard to find.
Set time and zones Have nodes w/i a few seconds of eachother.
setclock <nodename> # sets local clock to the clock on nodename.
Be sure all nodes are in the same timezone.
/etc/hosts 
Put the host name on loopback to support Apache and desktop.
   This may be moved to the persistant address later.
Edit out "-" and "_" characters.
Remove unneeded "cities".
.dtprofile Remove the '#' from the sourceprofile line near the end of the file.
/.rhosts 
For Release 4 only: Include all IP labels and $(hostname)s
/.profile 
export ENV=$HOME/.kshrc
export PS1="${USER}@$(hostname) \${PWD##*/} #"
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/es/sbin/cluster/utilities
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/es/sbin/cluster/etc
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/es/sbin/cluster/diag
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/es/sbin/cluster
/.kshrc 
set -o vi
alias ll="ls -l"
