LifeKeeper Configuration Tasks
LifeKeeper Configuration Tasks
You can perform the following configuration tasks from the LifeKeeper GUI.
The following four tasks are described in this guide, as they are unique to a
SAMS resource instance, and different for each Recovery Kit.
•
Create a Resource Hierarchy. Creates an application resource
hierarchy in your LifeKeeper cluster.
•
Delete a Resource Hierarchy. Deletes a resource hierarchy from all
servers in your LifeKeeper cluster.
•
Extend a Resource Hierarchy. Extends a resource hierarchy from the
primary server to a backup server.
•
Unextend a Resource Hierarchy. Unextends (removes) a resource
hierarchy from a single server in the LifeKeeper cluster.
The following tasks are described in the GUI Administration section within
the LifeKeeper Online Product Manual, because they are common tasks with
steps that are identical across all Recovery Kits.
• Create a Resource Dependency. Creates a parent/child dependency
between an existing resource hierarchy and another resource instance and
propagates the dependency changes to all applicable servers in the
cluster.
• Delete a Resource Dependency. Deletes a resource dependency and
propagates the dependency changes to all applicable servers in the
cluster.
• In Service. Brings a resource hierarchy into service on a specific server.
• Out of Service. Takes a resource hierarchy out of service on a specific
server.
• View/Edit Properties. View or edit the properties of a resource
hierarchy on a specific server.
Note: Throughout the rest of this section, we explain how to configure your
Recovery Kit by selecting certain tasks from the Edit menu of the
LifeKeeper GUI. You can also select each configuration task from the
toolbar. You may also right click on a global resource in the Resource
Hierarchy Tree (left-hand pane) of the status display window to display the
