### Tools for Registering and Configuring HA for PeopleSoft Application Server

Oracle Solaris Cluster software provides the following tools for registering and configuring the HA for PeopleSoft application server in the global cluster or in a zone cluster:

- The `clsetup`(1CL) utility.

  The `clsetup` utility provides a wizard for configuring the HA for PeopleSoft application server. This wizard reduces the possibility for configuration errors that might result from command syntax errors or omissions. This wizard also ensures that all required resources are created and that all required dependencies between resources are set.

  For instructions for using the wizard, see How to Register and Configure HA for PeopleSoft Application Server for Failover (`clsetup`) and How to Register and Configure HA for PeopleSoft Application Server for Multi-Instance (`clsetup`).

- Oracle Solaris Cluster maintenance commands. For instructions for using the commands, see How to Register and Configure HA for PeopleSoft Application Server for Failover (CLI) and How to Register and Configure HA for PeopleSoft Application Server for Multi-Instance Configuration (CLI).

## How to Register and Configure HA for PeopleSoft Application Server for Failover (`clsetup`)

Use this procedure to configure the HA for PeopleSoft application server for failover. The `clsetup` utility includes a wizard to guide you through the creation of logical hostname resources. The wizard creates multiple resource groups, each containing one logical hostname resource, with a different preferred node in each group.

Before You Begin

Before you run `clsetup`, be sure that the following tasks have been performed:

- PeopleSoft application server software and agent packages are installed on the nodes of the cluster as described in Installing and Configuring the PeopleSoft Application Server Domain and Installing the Data Service Package.

- All storage management software that you intend to use is installed and configured on all nodes where PeopleSoft application server is to run.

- Zone clusters where you intend to run PeopleSoft application server have been created.

- The logical hostnames that are to be made available by the resources have an entry in a name service database such as DNS.

- If you are using IP Network Multipathing (IPMP) groups, the groups are configured on the nodes where the logical hostname resources can be brought online.

- Any non-global zones that can master the resources are already configured on your cluster nodes.

## How to Register and Configure HA for PeopleSoft Application Server for Failover (CLI)

Before You Begin

Install the data service package during your initial Oracle Solaris Cluster installation.

If you did not install the HA for PeopleSoft application server package as part of your initial Oracle Solaris Cluster installation, go to Installing the Data Service Package.

1. On the cluster node that hosts the PeopleSoft application server domain, assume the `root` role that provides `solaris.cluster.modify` and `solaris.cluster.admin` RBAC authorization.
2. Register the `ORCL.PeopleSoft_app_server` resource type.

       # clresourcetype register ORCL.PeopleSoft_app_server

3. Create a PeopleSoft application server domain resource in the failover resource group.

       # clresource create -g psft-app-failover-rg -d \
       -t ORCL.PeopleSoft_app_server \
       -p Psft_User=Psft-username -p Psft_Domain=Psft-domainname \
       -p Psft_Home=Psft-home-directory -p Psft_Cfg_Home=Psft-config-home-directory \
       -p resource_dependencies=logicalhostname-resource \
       -p resource_dependencies_offline_restart=hasp-resource psft-app-server-resource

4. If the database tier is deployed on the same global cluster, configure a strong dependency to the resources for the database instance and database listener.

   Do this even if the database tier is deployed in a different zone cluster of the same global cluster.

       # clresource set -p resource_dependencies+=db-instance-resource,db-listener-resource \
       psft-app-server-resource

5. Enable thePeopleSoft application server domain resource.

   Repeat this step for each PeopleSoft application server domain instance, if multiple instances were created.

       # clresource status
       # clresource enable psft-app-server-resource

## How to Remove a PeopleSoft Application Server Domain Resource From a Failover Resource Group

1. Assume the `root` role that provides `solaris.cluster.modify` and `solaris.cluster.admin` RBAC authorizations.
2. Disable and remove the resource that is used by the HA for PeopleSoft application server data service.

       # clresource disable psft-app-server-resource
       # clresource delete psft-app-server-resource

## How to Register and Configure HA for PeopleSoft Application Server for Multi-Instance Configuration (CLI)

This procedure shows how to use commands to create a PeopleSoft application server multi-instance configuration that uses single-node resource groups. This method is an alternative to using the `clsetup` wizard described in How to Register and Configure HA for PeopleSoft Application Server for Multi-Instance (`clsetup`).

A single node resource group is created for each of the application server resources managing a domain. Each resource group has a strong positive affinity on storage resource group and a logical host resource group whose primary node is the node containing the application server resource group.

Note - These instructions assume a zone cluster. If you are configuring in the global cluster, omit the `-Z` option.

1. Create a logical host resource group.

       # clresourcegroup create -Z zone-name \
       -p nodelist=node1,node2,node3... \
       logicalhost-resource-group

2. Create a logical hostname resource in the resource group for logical hostnames.

       # clreslogicalhostname create -Z zone-name \
       -g logicalhost-resource-group -h hostname \
       logicalhost-resource

3. Bring the logical hostname resource group online.

       # clresourcegroup online -emM -Z zone-name logicalhost-resource-group

4. Create a single-node resource group for an application server, with strong positive affinities for the logical host resource group and the storage resource group.

       # clresourcegroup create -Z zone-name -p nodelist=node1 \
       -p RG_affinities=++logicalhost-resource-group,++scalmnt-rg  psft-app-server-rg

5. Set the logical hostname resource group Failback property.

       # clresourcegroup set -p Failback=True -Z zone-name logicalhost-resource-group

6. Create the PeopleSoft application server resource and set its properties.

       # clresource create -t ORCL.PeopleSoft_app_server:1 -g psft-app-server-rg \
       -p Resource_dependencies=logicalhost-resource1,zone-1:rac-proxy-rs \
       -p Resource_dependencies_offline_restart=storage1-rs,storage2-rs \
       -p Psft_Home=/path/to/Psft/home/dir \
       -p Psft_Cfg_Home=/path/to/Psft/cfg-home \
       -p Psft_User=username \
       -p Psft_Domain=Psft-domain psft-application-rs

Example 2-1 Commands for Configuring HA for PeopleSoft Application Server in a Single-Node Resource Group Multi-Instance Configuration

    # clresourcegroup create -Z zone-2 \
    -p nodelist=vzmoney1d,vzmoney2d,vzmoney3d,vzmoney4d money-9-rg

    # clreslogicalhostname create -Z zone-2 -g money-9-rg -h money-9 money-9-rs

    # clresourcegroup online -emM -Z zone-2 money-9-rg

    # clresourcegroup create -Z zone-2 -p nodelist=vzmoney1d \
    -p RG_affinities=++money-9-rg,++scalmnt-rg pse-PSEDB-rg

    # clresourcegroup set -p Failback=True -Z zone-2 money-9-rg

    # clresource create -Z zone-2 -t ORCL.PeopleSoft_app_server:1 -g pse-PSEDB-rg \
    -p Resource_dependencies=money-9-rs,zone-1:rac-proxy-rs \
    -p Resource_dependencies_offline_restart=scalmnt-crs03-rs,scalmnt-crs01-rs \
    -p Psft_Home=/scalable/pse-app/PT8.52 \
    -p Psft_Cfg_Home=/scalable/pse-app/psft/cfg-home \
    -p Psft_User=psft -p Psft_Domain=PSEDB \
    pse-PSEDB-rs
