IBM Tivoli Monitoring, Version 6.3 Fix Pack 2

Data warehouse setup

The data warehouse cluster includes the following resources:

The generic setup of the data warehouse on a cluster involves the following steps:

  1. Install the database middleware locally on both nodes.

  2. Set up the database users and groups to be exactly the same on both nodes.

  3. Remove automatic startup of the database middleware, so it can run under cluster control.

  4. Set up the basic cluster resource group with shared persistent storage, virtual IP address, and the database middleware.

  5. Create the data warehouse database on the first node of the cluster (shared persistent storage).

  6. Catalog the data warehouse database on the second node of the cluster.

The following steps are necessary only if the Summarization and Pruning Agent and the Warehouse Proxy Agent are included in the cluster. Otherwise, these steps are optional:

  1. Install the Summarization and Pruning Agent and the Warehouse Proxy Agent on the first node of the cluster (shared persistent storage).

  2. Disable automatic startup of the Summarization and Pruning Agent and Warehouse Proxy Agent services (if applicable to this platform).

  3. Bind the Summarization and Pruning Agent and the Warehouse Proxy Agent to the virtual IP address.

  4. Set up the Summarization and Pruning Agent and Warehouse Proxy Agent on the second node of the cluster (depending on your platform, this might involve copying the registry keys or environment variables or both to the second node).

  5. Add the Summarization and Pruning Agent and Warehouse Proxy Agent as resources to the resource group.
