Managing a Cluster in a Degraded
Condition
Due to the highly available nature of clustering, applications and network
clients remain operational even while some cluster components do not. When
the cluster is in this degraded condition, follow this process:
1.
Understand what caused the degradation. Use Compaq Insight Manager
or Compaq Insight Manager XE to determine the problem.
2.
Determine whether the condition will continue to worsen.
3.
Determine how critical the problem is.
a.
If the problem is considered noncritical, wait until a non-peak time
to service the problem. (Using Intelligent Cluster Administrator, you
can usually work around the problem and continue successful cluster
operations.)
b.
If the problem is considered critical, fail over all clustered
applications and resources to the other server before servicing the
problem.
