Before you begin: You
need to have the information about the nodes. You should use the information
from RRSF initialization worksheet and scenario.
Perform the following steps to configure a multisystem node.
- Synchronize the USER and GROUP profiles between the two databases.
For information on how you can do this, see Synchronizing database profiles.
______________________________________________________________
- On MVSA and MVSB, issue RACF® commands
to configure MVSA and MVSB as member systems of multisystem node NODEAB.
Example: On MVSA and MVSB, issue:
TARGET NODE(NODEAB) SYSNAME(MVSA) PROTOCOL(APPC(LUNAME(LU0A)))
LOCAL WORKSPACE(VOLUME(MVS001)) PREFIX(SYS1) OPERATIVE MAIN
TARGET NODE(NODEAB) SYSNAME(MVSB) PROTOCOL(APPC(LUNAME(LU0B)))
LOCAL WORKSPACE(VOLUME(MVS001)) PREFIX(SYS1) OPERATIVE
Create
a shared RACF parameter library
for MVSA and MVSB, and set up MVSA and MVSB to invoke a common member
of the parameter library at initialization. (See The RACF parameter library for information on how to do this.)
Add the commands you just issued to the common initialization member,
to ensure that in the future RACF comes
up with the correct RRSF configuration.
______________________________________________________________
- On MVSA and MVSB, issue RACF commands
to configure NODEX as a remote RRSF node for each of them.
Example: On
MVSA and MVSB, issue:
TARGET NODE(NODEX) PROTOCOL(APPC(LUNAME(LU0X)))
WORKSPACE(VOLUME(MVS001)) PREFIX(SYS1) OPERATIVE
Add
this command to the common initialization member of the RACF parameter library.
______________________________________________________________
- On NODEX, issue RACF commands
to define NODEAB as a remote multisystem node for NODEX, with MVSA
defined as the main system.
Example: On NODEX, issue:
TARGET NODE(NODEX) PROTOCOL(APPC(LUNAME(LU0X))) LOCAL
WORKSPACE(VOLUME(MVS005)) PREFIX(SYS1) OPERATIVE
TARGET NODE(NODEAB) SYSNAME(MVSA) PROTOCOL(APPC(LUNAME(LU0A))) MAIN
WORKSPACE(VOLUME(MVS005)) PREFIX(SYS1) OPERATIVE
TARGET NODE(NODEAB) SYSNAME(MVSB) PROTOCOL(APPC(LUNAME(LU0B)))
WORKSPACE(VOLUME(MVS005)) PREFIX(SYS1) OPERATIVE
Create
a RACF parameter library for
NODEX and set up NODEX to invoke a member of the parameter library
at initialization. (See
The RACF parameter library for
information on how to do this.) Add the commands you just issued to
the initialization member, to ensure that in the future RACF comes up with the correct RRSF configuration.
______________________________________________________________
When you are done you have configured the RRSF network shown in Figure 1.
