Configuring the domain 83
Creating a domain
You can create a domain in two ways:
•
“Manually creating a domain” (page 83)
•
“Using the Nortel SNAS domain quick setup wizard in the CLI” (page
84)
Manually creating a domain
To create and configure a domain manually, use the following command:
/cfg/domain <domain ID>
where
domain ID is an integer in the range 1 to 256 that
uniquely identifies the domain in the Nortel
SNAS cluster.
When you first create the domain, you are prompted to enter the following
parameters:
•
domain name—a string that identifies the domain on the Nortel
SNAS, as a mnemonic aid. The maximum length of the string is 255
characters.
•
portal Virtual IP address (pVIP)—the IP address of the Nortel SNAS
portal. You can have more than one pVIP for a domain. To specify
more than one pVIP, use a comma separator. The pVIP is the address
to which the client connects for authentication and host integrity check.
For more information, see
“About the IP addresses” (page 42) .
The Domain menu appears.
Figure 4 "Creating a domain" (page 84) shows sample output for the
/cfg/domain <domain ID>
command and commands on the Domain
menu. For more information about the Domain menu commands, see
“Configuring domain parameters” (page 89) .
