Clustering fails with WPS patched to 6.0.0.1 and WAS patched to 6.0.2.17

[leon.d...@nissan.co.uk]

Steps followed for installation:
1. Install WAS and WPS from WPS install binary
2. Path both of them to specified level
3. Migrate DB from cloudscape to oracle
4. Create Deployment manager profile in the same machine
5. Enable same security for Deployment manager
6. pre-federation script
7. addNode
8. post federation script
9. Check the operability of WPS in Dmgr
Everything seems to run as expected till here
10. Tried to create cluster by running cluster-setup [Got this error]
I tried this couple of times and it landed up in the same place.

Got the following error when running
/WPSconfig.sh cluster-setup

I am getting the same error, I've tried serval times now. Perhaps its a bug intrduced in cf17? I'm going to open a PMR up tomorrow I guess.

[leon.d...@nissan.co.uk]

This problem is fixed. I think there is something to do with 17 WAS version.

All I did is, if it failes in "action-create-scheduler-cleanup-daemon" then i do

WPSconfig.sh action-remove-scheduler-cleanup-daemon
WPSconfig.sh action-create-scheduler-cleanup-daemon

manually and then run cluster-setup.

That solves the problem. You can use the same logic if you get struck anywhere in cluster-setup script.

Hi LeonDJ,

I am also going to work on clustering for WPS 6.0 on windows in near future. I have gone through some of the docs available on the net. But still to find any proper documentation on it.

Can you just help me out in this. It would be fine if you can just point out some resources where I can get these details.

Waiting for your response. Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Dev

I am facing the same problem (WPS patched to 6.0.0.2 and WAS patched to 6.0.2.17), I tried the following but get error:

WPSconfig.sh action-create-scheduler-cleanup-daemon

WPS 6.0.0.2???

[leon.d...@nissan.co.uk]

Dev,

WPS 6.0 Infocenter will give you step by step procedure on installing Cluster. Please follow that.

Cheers,
Leon

[namdev...@yahoo.com]

I ran both WPSconfig.sh action-remove-scheduler-cleanup-daemon and
WPSconfig.sh action-create-scheduler-cleanup-daemon but the latter failed. I have WP 6.0.0.0 and WAS/ND 6.0.2.15 running on a RHEL 4 systems. Will installing the cumulative fix to WP resolve the issue? I too get the same error code as you do.

Thanks,

I tried it on Process Server 6.0.1.2 and applied WAS base FixPack 17.

Also tried on Process Server 6.0.2 (This has the WAS base FixPack 17).

In both cases, I get the

[steve....@baesystems.com]

I get the same error.

I can't see any fixes on the IBM website for this problem so I can only assume its a configuration issue of some sort.

Did anyone have any progress on resolving this ?

[namdev...@yahoo.com]

I rolled back to 6.0.2.9 and ran WPSconfig.sh action-create-wcm-dynacache-names followed by WPSconfig.sh action-cluster-setup-wcm-caches and that seemed to do the trick. I'm not sure if CFP 17 for WAS 6 supports WP 6.

Here is the technote that mentions this problem, currently the only workaround seems to be to fallback to lower WAS base Fixpack.
http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=688&uid=swg21254233

I switched to WAS base Fixpack 15 and the problem is not there.
