Configuring the alternate primary server

The alternate primary server monitors the lead primary server and assumes the lead role during failover. Under typical operation, the alternate primary server functions as a secondary server. Configuration includes synchronizing files and initializing the license key.

To configure the alternate primary server:

  1. As the root user, synchronize the alternate primary server with the lead primary server. Type:
    ~/rpd-sync.sh primary1_hostname
  2. To initialize the license key on the alternate primary server, type these commands:
    1. source /opt/infoprint/ippd/base/config/ippdprofile
    2. /opt/infoprint/ippd/bin/collectKeyInfo.pl -l /aiw/aiw1/config/license/IPPD-Base-Trial-60-days.key
  3. Switch to the aiw1 user. Type:
    su - aiw1
  4. Run this command:
    db2 catalog db AIWDB as AIWDB at node AIWNODE authentication server
  5. Continue with Configuring the UI server
