Add Cluster Nodes

We recommend that you install each cluster node on a separate system. However, if you install all nodes on one system, each node needs a separate jboss_home. This precaution is necessary to avoid contention over the workpoint.log in the jboss_home/bin directory.

Follow these steps:

1. Install JBoss and the JDK on the computer.
2. Install the CA IdentityMinder server on that system.
   • Windows: From your installation media, run the following program:

     ca-im-release-win32.exe
     

   • UNIX: From your installation media, run the following program:

     ca-im-release-sol.bin
     

   release represents the current release of CA IdentityMinder.

3. Be sure to supply the same values for FIPS, SiteMinder, database, and shared secret details and all other values entered for the master node.
4. Select Cluster Installation.
5. Enter a Peer ID that is different from the other nodes you have created.
6. If the multicast address test failed, edit the MULTI_CAST_ADDRESS value in the standalone.bat or standalone.sh file. Enter a unique multicast address.
7. If you are installing on a system that supports IPv6, modify one of the following properties in the IDM_OPTS entry in the standalone.bat or standalone.sh file:
   • For IPv6 only systems on Solaris, uncomment the following entry:

     IDM_OPTS="$IDM_OPTS -Djava.net.preferIPv6Addresses=true"
     

   • For IPv6/IPv4 systems, uncomment the following entry:

     IDM_OPTS="$IDM_OPTS -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true"
     

If any issues occur during installation, inspect the installation logs.
