3.3 Creating a New Secondary Domain in a
Cluster
After you have set up the primary domain and initial post office, as described in Section 3.2,
“Setting Up a New GroupWise System in a Cluster,” on page 46 , you can create additional
secondary domains as needed.
To create a new secondary domain in a clustering environment:
1 Map a drive to the GroupWise volume for the domain ( System Clustering Worksheet item 7 )
where the new secondary domain will be created.
The GroupWise volume name will be
cluster _ volume . For assistance with mapping a drive to a
cluster-enabled volume, see “Configuring Short Name Resolution” on page 44 .
2 Manually create the domain directory ( System Clustering Worksheet item 10 ).
This step is not required, but in a clustered environment, Step 5 is easier if the domain directory
already exists.
3 If you selected
vol :\system
on GroupWise volume as the agent installation location (under
Agent Clustering Worksheet item 1 ), create the
vol :\system
directory on the GroupWise
volume accessed in Step 1 .
or
If you selected
sys:\system
on each node, decide which node you will install the agents to
first.
4
In ConsoleOne, connect to the primary domain in your GroupWise system, as described in
“
Connecting to a Domain ” in “ Domains ” in the GroupWise 7 Administration Guide .
5
Create the new domain, following the steps provided in “ Creating the New Domain ” in
“ Domains ” in the GroupWise 7 Administration Guide . Keep in mind the following cluster-
specific details:
Š Use the Domain Worksheet you filled out in Section 2.3, “Planning a New Clustered
Domain,” on page 25 to fill in the fields in the Create GroupWise Domain dialog box.
Š
In the Domain Database Location field, be sure to browse through the drive you mapped
in Step 1 to the domain directory you created in Step 2 above.
Š
In the Link to Domain field, link the new domain to the primary domain of your
GroupWise system.
Š
The Configure Link option is selected by default. Select TCP/IP Link to the Other
Domain . Refer to the Agent Clustering Worksheet that you filled out in “Planning
Secondary IP Addresses and Cluster-Unique Port Numbers for Agents in the Cluster” on
page 31
for the secondary IP address and cluster-unique port numbers that you need to
specify in order to configure the link.
6 Use the Link Configuration tool to change the links from the new domain to all other domains
in the cluster to direct TCP/IP links, following the steps provided in “
Changing the Link
Protocol between Domains to TCP/IP ” in “ Message Transfer Agent ” in the GroupWise 7
Administration Guide .
Although a complete mesh link configuration is the most efficient, it might not be feasible in all
situations. Set up as many direct TCP/IP links as possible for best MTA performance in the
cluster.
7 Make sure you are still connected to the primary domain.
