By now you should have 3 nodes, each with LifeKeeper for Linux installed and ready for use.
Connecting to Linux Node with the GUI
LifeKeeper has a GUI application to configure the cluster. Please refer to Connecting to a Linux Node with x11 Forwarding for more details about accessing the LifeKeeper GUI.
Basic Configuration
In this tutorial there are three nodes with the following IP address range:
| node-a (Active) | 10.20.1.10 |
| node-b (Standby) | 10.20.2.10 |
| node-c (Quorum / Witness) | 10.20.3.10 |
The basic configuration is completed using the following steps:
- Define the Communication Path Note: There are three nodes in the cluster including node-c (Quorum/Witness). Therefore, 3 communication paths must be defined in order to create bidirectional communication paths between all pairs of nodes.
- node-a <—> node-b
- node-a <—> node-c
- node-b <—> node-c
