Sharing an installation across multiple Linux systems


If you share a single installation across several Linux systems that share files from a primary Linux system, you must run a second command on all of the secondary Linux systems. A primary Linux system is a system that owns the shared disks. The primary Linux system has read/write access to the disks. The secondary Linux systems are systems that have read only access to the shared disks. For an illustration of the primary and secondary Linux systems, see the following diagram:

To set up each secondary Linux system to share the data server installation, after you have installed the data server on the primary Linux system, complete the following steps:

  1. Type the following command on each secondary Linux system:
    /opt/bmc/mml/mmludins.sh
  2. Restart each Linux system.

    Note

    It is necessary to restart each Linux system because the updates to the read-only disks cannot be detected by the secondary Linux systems, until each Linux system is restarted.
