Deploying Cluster Export Services packages on existing IBM Storage Scale nodes

Use the following instructions to copy packages on your protocol nodes and to deploy these packages.

1. Copy the required packages to the protocol node from the location where the self-extracting package was extracted.

   By default, installation images are extracted to the target directory /usr/lpp/mmfs/5.2.3.x.

2. Install packages by issuing the following command:

   rpm -ivh Package_Name1 Package_Name2 ... Package_NameN

   For a list of packages for the current IBM Storage Scale release, see Manually installing the IBM Storage Scale software packages on Linux nodes.

3. Set the server licenses for each CES node by issuing the following command:

   mmchlicense server --accept -N CESNodeIPs

   For example,

   mmchlicense server --accept -N 203.0.113.7,203.0.113.9

4. Enable CES by issuing the following command:

   mmchnode -N ces_nodes --ces-enable

   For example,

   mmchnode -N 203.0.113.7,203.0.113.9 --ces-enable

5. Assign export IP addresses for each export IP by issuing the following command:

   mmces address add --ces-ip export_IP
