Cluster Manager Java Console Usage
I have too many clusters, names of which differ by only one or two characters at a time and searching for the cluster I want to log in, takes up a lot of time, especially in a catastrophic situation, it is unbearable.
I asked around and got the answer that, the labels in the cluster manager main GUI can not be modified. I am wondering if this is a true statement and if not, how I can change these names ? My cluster manager Java Consiole runs on Win7 professional and my clusters are all on Linux (RHEL) platform.
Short of changing the names of the clusters on GUI, can I possibly bring up the cluster that I Am trying to login to, from the command line or by clicking a custom windows icon such as :
"C:\Program Files\VERITAS\Cluster Manager\bin\ClusterManager.exe" <cluster_name | node_name | something_else>
so that I can create batch files for each of my clusters, in a more meaningful way than a cluster name only marginally different from another cluster name.
Thank you
Did you try using your local hosts file so in \windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts use whatever name you want and then use this name in the java GUI. This will work initially, but when you connect, the cluster name will be displayed (but this would happen if you could kick of a particular cluster from the CLI too). What I don't know is if when you disconnect, the java GUI goes back to the host name or keeps the cluster name from when it connected. If it does use the cluster name, then it may be stored in a text file that you can edit.
