Adding a Generic Service to the Data Cluster

Before you can install your runtime server nodes, you must add a generic server resource for the data tier.

1. Open the Failover Cluster Management console.
2. Expand <ClusterName>.sybase.com in the navigation pane, then right-click Services and Applications > Configure a Service or Application to start the High Availability wizard.
3. Click Next until you reach the Select Service or Application page.
4. Select data tier service you require, and click Next.
   • For the consolidated database (and cluster database), choose SybaseUnwiredPlatformConsolidatedDatabase.
   • For the messaging database, choose Advantage Database Server.
5. Name the resource.
   You must use this name as the CDB host name when you set up the runtime server cluster.
6. Click Next on all other screens to accept the defaults used by the wizard.
7. Click Finish.
8. Use the MS Cluster Management console to verify that you started the resource.
   Contact your IT department if this event message is recorded:
