Configuring Your System and

Network

Entering Node Settings

Note This section applies only if you have purchased a high-

availability NAS solution.

Before you proceed, you must stop the clustering services to edit the

information.

You initially enter your node settings in the Configuration Wizard. The node

settings let you configure the two nodes (servers) in your cluster. Each server

has one ore more network interface cards that can be selected to provide

cluster heartbeats. A heartbeat is a periodic signal generated by the server to

indicate that it is still running. You can have multiple NICs for heartbeats for

each server but only one heartbeat exists for each specified NIC.

To enter node settings:

1 In the Command View NAS web interface, click the Configuration tab.

2 Navigate down the tree to High Availability, then select Node Settings.

3 Select Actions > Change Node Settings.

— Enter the Node Names. This is the hostname of each server that will be

a member of the cluster. Hostnames are limited to 40 characters and

cannot contain spaces, forward slash (/), backslashes (\), or asterisks

(*).

— If you want to start the clustering services after a reboot, check the box.

— Select the Heartbeat NICs. A table lists the NICs that are already used

for heartbeats and ones that are available. From the available NICs

list, select the NICs to use as a heartbeat, then click Add. NICs that are

used as heartbeats can still be used for accessing storage. Note that

both nodes in the cluster will use these heartbeat settings.

4 Click OK.

From the Actions button, you can also:

■

Delete the cluster configuration

■

Specify which node to start or stop
