Clustered Filesystem

Hi,

Not sure if this might be a basic one, but i couldn't locate it in the user guide.

How do i add a clustered filesystem as source.

I added individual hosts with ip and also the cluster ip, but the filesystem is not discovered in any of the hosts.

I am sorry, but AppSync does not currently support Windows clustered file systems. AppSync supports clustered SQL only in Windows clustered environments, per the following notes in the latest Support Matrix.

https://elabnavigator.emc.com/vault/pdf/EMC_AppSync.pdf

"SQL is supported in Windows Failover Cluster. Filesystem is not supported in Windows Failover cluster environment"

and

"Filesystem is not supported in Clustered environment like Windows failover cluster, Redhat Cluster and VCS"

The source filesystem is jfs2 filesystem running on on AIX Cluster @oslevel 7100-04-02-1614

According to the Support Matrix it is supported.

I added the primary ip first

secondary ip

All completely successfully.

But when i add the The virtual IP /Service label IP it is getting completed with errors and there is no filesystems being discovered.

Is this an HACMP clustered environment? All file systems must be registered to the clustered service, to be picked up by AppSync. Validate by running /usr/es/sbin/cluster/utilities/clshowres

The service label was different vs the dns entry. Fixed it and it was able to mount.

Thanks to EMC support
