How To Install Oracle Solaris Cluster On Solaris 11

This document outlines the steps to install Oracle Solaris Cluster 4.1 on two Solaris 11 nodes. It describes downloading the cluster software ISO, mounting it on both nodes, setting the package publisher to point to the mounted ISO, installing the ha-cluster-full package and ha-cluster-quorum-server-full package on both nodes, and adding the cluster command path to root's profile. This completes a basic installation of Oracle Solaris Cluster 4.1 on the two-node Solaris 11 cluster.

How to Install Oracle Solaris Cluster on

Solaris 11
This Oracle Solaris cluster series articles will cover the build of a two-node
cluster running Solaris Cluster 4.1 on Solaris 11.The intention of making the
cluster will be configuring High availability local zone aka failover local
zones.We have done the same setup on veritas cluster quite long time back.In
this article we will see the installation of the cluster software.

Cluster Nodes: UnixArena,UnixArena1


Cluster Software: Oracle Solaris Cluster 4.1.
Operating System:Solaris 11

1.Download the oracle Solaris cluster from oracle website.You may need


oracle support login to download it.The file name will be “osc-4_1-ga-repo-
full.iso” .

2. Copy the file to your cluster nodes using winscp.

3. Create a device file for ISO image to mount on both the nodes.

root@UnixArena:~# lofiadm -a /osc-4_1-ga-repo-full.iso


/dev/lofi/1

4.Create the mount point and mount it on both the cluster nodes.

root@UnixArena:~# mkdir -p /testrepo/hasol1


root@UnixArena:~# mount -F hsfs /dev/lofi/1
/testrepo/hasol1
root@UnixArena:~#

5.Set the package publisher on both cluster nodes.

root@UnixArena:~# pkg set-publisher -g


file:///testrepo/hasol1 ha-cluster
pkg set-publisher: The origin URIs for 'ha-cluster' do not
appear to point to a valid pkg repository.
Please verify the repository's location and the client's
network configuration.
Additional details:

Unable to contact valid package repository


Encountered the following error(s):
Transport errors encountered when trying to contact
repository.
Reported the following errors:
file protocol error: code: 22 reason: The path
'/testrepo/hasol1' does not contain a valid package
repository.
Repository URL: 'file:///testrepo/hasol1'.
root@UnixArena:~#

oops…We are not pointing the correct repo file.

6.set the correct the repo file and rebuild the index using pkg command.

root@UnixArena:~# pkg set-publisher -g


file:///testrepo/hasol1/repo ha-cluster
root@UnixArena:~# pkg rebuild-index
PHASE ITEMS
Building new search index 884/884
root@UnixArena:~#

7.List the available publisher. You can see the newly configured  cluster repo
here.

root@UnixArena:~# pkg publisher


PUBLISHER TYPE STATUS P LOCATION
solaris origin online F
file:///testrepo/
ha-cluster origin online F
file:///testrepo/hasol1/repo/
root@UnixArena:~#

8.Install the oracle solaris cluster using pkg command on both the commands.

root@UnixArena:~# pkg install ha-cluster-full
