You
can reconfigure a cluster to add instances, change trace flags,
and so on. Edit the cluster input file and then create a new run
file for the instance you intend to start first and that includes the dataserver with
the cluster-input option. This option
tells Adaptive Server to write the new configuration information
to the quorum device.
Log in to any instance, and shut down the cluster.
Note: If you use sybcluster or the Adaptive
Server plug-in, you do not need to shut down the cluster
before reconfiguring it.
-
Extract the current configuration to a file using
the -extract-config command
to the qrmutil utility. See the Clusters Users Guide for more details:
-
Edit the cluster input file.
-
Copy the run file for the instance you intend to boot
and add the --cluster-input option
to the dataserver statement. For example, change RUN_ase1 in
this way:
$SYBASE/$SYBASE_ASE/bin/dataserver\
--cluster-input=/<input_file>\
--quorum-dev=/dev/raw/raw11\
--instance=ase1\
-
Start the cluster.
