Before you install
this enhancement to your cluster, note the following requirements:
|
Operating system |
Linux x86_64 (for IBM Spectrum Conductor) |
|
Product versions |
IBM Spectrum Conductor 2.5.0 |
Follow
these instructions to ensure your IBM Spectrum Conductor and IBM Spectrum
Symphony cluster is set up correctly for this enhancement:
a. Install IBM Spectrum
Conductor 2.5.0 on a Linux host, which serves as the primary host. For more
information, see Installing IBM Spectrum Conductor on a management
host.
b. Install IBM Spectrum Symphony
7.3.1 on a Windows host which serves as a compute host. For more information,
see Installing IBM Spectrum Symphony on a Windows
compute host.
c. Verify that the Windows
compute host joined the IBM Spectrum Conductor Linux cluster. For more information,
see step 2 in Adding a host to a cluster.
d. On the Windows compute host,
create a user with the same name as the CLUSTERADMIN of the Linux primary host,
with or without the domain name.
e. On the Linux primary host,
change the ClusterAdmins
section in the ego.cluster
configuration:
1) Go to the $EGO_CONFDIR directory, and open the ego.cluster.cluster_name file.
Locate the ClusterAdmins
section and add the user created in step d, or the Windows execution user, to
the Administrators parameter. For
example: Begin ClusterAdmins
Administrators = egoadmin ENG\egoadmin .\Administrator
End ClusterAdmins
For more information, see ego.cluster reference - ClusterAdmins section.
f. On the Windows compute host,
configure the password for the new Windows execution account added in step
e.2). For example:
> egosh ego execpasswd
-u user_name -x password
For
more information, see Configuring a Windows
password.
o Only application instance workload is
supported on IBM Spectrum Symphony Windows compute hosts. Spark workload is not
supported on Windows compute hosts.
o The environment variable IBM_PLATFORM_DEPLOY_HOOK_EXEC_USER is not supported as a service package environment variable on IBM
Spectrum Symphony Windows compute hosts.
