Steps for setting up vertical cluster
Install and configure Deployment Manager
- Install the DMGR
- Start DMGR
- Change DMGR configuration to increase the timeout value of Web Container and SOAP
- Create portal admin user and group in the DMGR using WAS Admin Console
- Restart the DMGR
Install and prepare Primary portal node
- Install the portal server. While installing use the username and password that you created in the DMGR
- Configure the primary portal node to an external database
Federate and cluster Primary Node
- Collect files from the portal node that will need to be added to the DM by executing ConfigEngine.bat collect-files-for-dmgr
- Copy the resultant file to the DMGR, expand its content and copy them to appropriate places
- Add the node to the deployment manager cell by executing ConfigEngine.sh cluster-node-config-pre-federation task
- Update the Deployment manager configuration for the new WebSphere POrtal server by executing the ConfigEngine.sh cluster-node-config-post-federation task
- Create the cluster definition and add the cluster member by executing the cluster-node-config-cluster-setup
Adding additional horizontal cluster members
- Install the Portal Server on secondary node. While installing use the username and password that you created in the DMGR
- Copy database configuration from primary portal node. Copy wkplc_comp.properties and wkplc_dbtype.properties file as it is but modify the wkplc.properties file manually.
- Add this node to deployment manager by executing ./ConfigEngine.sh cluster-node-config-pre-federation task
- Update the deployment manager configuration for the newly added cluster member by executing ./ConfigEngine.sh cluster-node-config-post-federation task
- Add the newly federated WebSphere_Portal server as a cluster member to the existing cluster by execting cluster-node-config-cluster-setup task
