Enabling VMware HA Integration with LifeKeeper Single Server Protection

By default LifeKeeper Single Server Protection integration with VMware HA is disabled when installed on a VMware VM. To enable integration requires the following steps:

1. Installation of VMware tools in the LifeKeeper Single Server Protection VM.

2. Edit /etc/default/LifeKeeper and change the VMware HA integration tunable HA_DISABLE value form 1 to 0.

3. Restart LifeKeeper Single Server Protection. If LifeKeeper Single Server Protection is currently running, it must be stopped and restarted to pick up the above change in /etc/default/LifeKeeper.

4. Installation of the SteelEye Management Console (optional step).
