2 GENERAL
Cloning Instruction includes all the post installation steps to be performed on
an APG43/2 system in order to have it working and ready to be connected to
an APZ.
After reconfiguration of the system each APG43/2 is identical to the other.

3 KNOWN BUGS AND LIMITATIONS

-

4 PREREQUISITES
Hardware and Firmware requirements

• The APG hardware supported for this release is APG43/2 (APUB2

boards)

• The APZ configuration supported is APZ 19.0.

The software level is AGM320 R1A aligned with APZ 19.0 CM005

Multicast Server prerequisites

• Telnet access to the APG43/2 is required to perform cloning.

• Symantec Ghost Solution Suite 1.1 (Which includes Symantec

Ghost 8.3) must be installed prior to the installation of the cloning
software.

• The cloning software will only run on Windows 2000 Professional/Server

SP4, XP Professional SP1a or Windows Server 2003
Standard/Enterprise.

IMPORTANT: Check carefully the following notes

NOTE: In case of Dual AP configuration, during cloning procedures, AP1-AP2

ethernet cables must be unplugged (on the AP side) in order to avoid IP
address conflict inside the internal network. That is due to the fact that
192.168.x.1 and 192.168.x.2 are the default IPN addresses and post cloning
procedures will change them to 192.168.x.3 and 192.168.x.4 in case of AP2
(x is 169 or 170).

NOTE 2: It is required to physically remove CP connections (e.g. unplug

SCB-RP connection cables towards magazines hosting CP blades and
unplug CP-A, CP-B and MAU from the SPX magazine). The same applies to
EGEM2 environment (unplug cables connected to NWI as well).

NOTE 3: It is required to have only one public Ethernet connected to ETH1

(no ETH2 cable shall be present since “no teaming” is the default
configuration)

5 DEPLOY THE CLONE IMAGE INTO AN APG43/2

About how to deploy the clone image into and APG43/2, refer to [1].

For the Clone Image to be deployed, refer to [4]

NOTE: The steps reported in this chapter, if not expressly specified, need to
be performed on both AP1 and AP2 systems.

5.1 Changing Parameters on an already installed machine

This chapter describes how to perform changes, on an already cloned machine,

to: Node Names, IP Addresses, Cluster Name, Cluster IP Address, Domain
Name, Domain Suffix, Subnet Mask and Default Gateway.

NOTE: If parameters already changed or the ConfigMenu.exe /preconfig has

already been performed before CloInstall.vbs (see ref. 1), and no further
changes are required, go directly to chapter 5.2.

NOTE 2: The defined Forwarders (if any) will be removed from the system by
the CloConfig procedure and needs to be reset manually after the
reconfiguration is over.

IMPORTANT: CloConfig must be executed on machine cloned at Ericsson

factory. CloConfig on updated machine (e.g. via FCH) is not supported.

Before starting, check that the actions specified in chapter 4 have been
performed.

Both nodes

Delete on both nodes the directory Clone under c:\temp running the following
commands from Active node:

”c:\Program Files\AP\APOS\clone\CloCleanup.vbs” –deletetemp

Check on both nodes they have been actually removed:

3 CloConfig execution

NOTE: Check that the actions specified in chapter 4 have been correctly
performed before starting CloConfig.

NOTE 2: Perform the checks specified in Appendix 14.4 before starting

CloConfig.

Active node A

Start the reconfiguration procedure by running via Remote Desktop:

NOTE: Use only Remote Desktop (GUI)

”c:\Program Files\AP\APOS\clone\CloConfig.vbs”

When asked for the “Administrator’s password”, insert it and press enter.
A prompt to allow changing the parameters will appear.
Fill the fields with the new parameters and save the changes choosing “Set
parameters and configure the system”.
The reconfiguration will continue automatically performing the following
main steps:
• Cluster stop on B and A nodes
• Active Directory demote/promote
• Start CloInstall with newly configured parameters
(hostname/domain/IP addresses)

Wait until the opened Remote Desktop session is automatically closed at first
node reboot.

It may take up to 3 hours for the complete procedure to be finished (in case
hostnames/domain must be changed). In case only IP addresses must be
changed, the procedure will take a few minutes to be completed.

During some of the CloConfig phases it is not possible to login to the node.

10 Post Cloning steps

Once CloConfig is completed, perform the actions specified below:

Active node A

Check and, in case, Disable Write Cache for both the data disks:
“C:\Program Files\AP\APOS\clone\dskcache.exe”
PhysicalDrive1
“C:\Program Files\AP\APOS\clone\dskcache.exe”
PhysicalDrive2

If an error is returned, execute the operation on the other node.

In case the write cache is enabled, disable it by using the following
command:
“C:\Program Files\AP\APOS\clone\dskcache.exe” -w
PhysicalDrive1
“C:\Program Files\AP\APOS\clone\dskcache.exe” –w
PhysicalDrive2

For AP1:

• Perform chapter 6

For AP2:

• Perform chapter 5.3 (only steps 2 and 5 about DNS reverse lookup
pointers without any node reboot)

• Perform chapter 6

For chapter 8.1, it should not be required to perform Soft Function change or
launching CS parameter script in order to change CSBIN parameters (the
ones visible in nels printout) since already performed in post cloning phase
when cloning the machine.

If they are not the expected ones, change them following the instructions in
chapters 8.1 and 8.2.

5.2 Post cloning steps

Active Node (Node A):

Launch the following scripts in this section, using GUI or SSH connections
(DO NOT USE telnet connection, see TR HL46741), in order to apply the
correct configuration for the node:

11 Verify the Cluster Group is up and running

cluster group

If not, start the needed resources manually

12 Refresh the explorer process in order to make visible drives I and K

c:\temp\PostCloning\script\RefreshExplorer.bat

13 Run the following post configuration batch file (in case of default time
zone):
c:\temp\PostCloning\PostCloning.bat

Check the result of the Post Cloning procedure looking at the log files stored
under c:\temp\PostCloning\logs on the Active node.
NOTE: The command given without parameters will set the default time
zone: “(GMT+01:00) Amsterdam, Berlin, Bern, Rome,
Stockholm, Vienna” bound at position “0”. In case a different time
zone needs to be bound, the correct syntax is reported below:
c:\temp\PostCloning\PostCloning.bat “TZ_name” TMZ_value

Where the “TZ_name” can be obtained using tzls command

Skip the following printout which may eventually occur at the end of
PostCloning script execution:
--- Configuration of the Passive Node finished ---

The process cannot access the file because it is being used by

another process.

For more details regarding the PostCloning.bat procedure refer to [14].

5.2.1 SSH Tectia settings

5.3 AP2 Reconfiguration

In case of AP1 configuration, skip this chapter and go to chapter 0.

In case you are here after having executed CloConfig phase (chapter 5.1), the
node is already configured as AP2 and this chapter shall be skipped.

The steps reported in this chapter have to be performed only when

configuring a system with two APGs and they apply to AP2 only.
It requires that all the steps in chapter 5.2 have been executed.

NOTE: all the steps in this section, if not differently mentioned, need to be
performed on the AP2 node only.

Launch the following scripts in this section, using GUI or SSH connections
(DO NOT USE telnet connection, see TR HL46741), in order to apply the
correct configuration for the node:

Active-node (Node A)

1. Execute the fewer clones AP2 configuration script on the active node
(node A) of AP2. Two input parameters are foreseen for this script:

• AP configuration (AP2 in our case)

• Node (Node A in our case)

c:\TEMP\PostCloning\FewerCloneConfig_PA18.bat AP2

NOTE: Do not take into account the error “The group or resource is not in the
correct state to perform the requested operation”.

2. Update the Reverse Lookup Zone pointers for AP2:

c:\TEMP\PostCloning\Utils\DNS\DNS_AP2_nodeA.bat

3. Reboot the node

prcboot -f

Wait until the restarted node is up again.

Active Node (Node B)

NOTE: It is OK if the “prcstate –l” printout shows that not all the resources are
up and running as the two nodes are not aligned (one is configured as AP2,
while the other not yet)

4. Execute the fewer clones configuration script on the new active node
(node B) for AP2:

8.3 Data Disk Quota Configuration

This chapter describes how to set the Data Disk Quota Configuration for CP
Systems (default BSC). The procedure needs to be applied on both AP1 and
AP2 systems.

Active-node

Set the right quota configuration

ssucfg -c <config> –f

where <config> parameter depends on the configuration used and the size of
the Data Disks.
See some examples below:
AP1 systems:
MSCBC-AP1-8M450 MSC-S BC HD 450 GB
MSCBC-AP1-8M600 MSC-S BC HD 600 GB
MSC MSC in Single CP HD 300 GB
HLR MSC in Single CP HD 300 GB
BSC BSC in Single CP HD 300 GB
AP2 systems:
MSCBC-AP2-8M450 MSC-S BC HD 450 GB
MSCBC-AP2-8M600 MSC-S BC HD 600 GB

Check new configuration:

ssuls

NOTE: For details about other configurations, see MAN ssucfg page 1/190
80-CNZ 222 166 or Application Information 2/155 18-ANZ 222 43/5.

8.4 IPMI and BIOS for APUB2

Verify the Firmware (IPMI and BIOS versions) installed on the boards:
ipmi_upg –f
wmic CSproduct List Status

In APZ19 the following CN-Is have been included:

• IPMI FW CXC138844 R13A (109 22-APZ 212 60/4-257)

• BIOS CXC1060242 R12A02 (109 22-APZ 212 60/4-258)

If not present, load the aforementioned CN-Is. They are already part of APZ
19.0 supported HW, as specified in APZ 19.0 HW baseline.

AP1 Active node

2. Once CP-AP communication is completed, in order to allow a User to

access CP via MML sessions, follow OPI AP, Authority, Administer to
properly define User authority.

AP1/AP2 Active node A

3. Reboot the active node via prcboot command

prcboot -f

AP1/AP2 Active node B

4. Wait until the rebooted node is up again

Reboot the other node now active:

prcboot -f

Wait until the node is up again

AP1/AP2 both nodes

14.4 Active Directory and File Replication checks

Before starting CloConfig, perform the following checks:

Check if date and time on both nodes are synchronized, using the following
commands:

Active Node
If AP1:

net time \\192.168.169.1

net time \\192.168.169.2

If AP2:

net time \\192.168.169.3

net time \\192.168.169.4

If not, synchronize both nodes using the following commands:

Passive Node
If AP1:

net time \\192.168.169.33 /SET /y

If AP2:

net time \\192.168.169.34 /SET /y

Both Nodes
Verify in the following way that the replication is without errors
”C:\Program files\AP\APOS\Clone\repadmin.exe” /showrepl

Here’s an example of printout without errors:

repadmin running command /showrepl against server

If there is no replication between the nodes before the installation starts, the
installation may fail. Ensure that replication is working between the two nodes
before starting the installation.
A way to overcome the replication problems could be to force a replication
between the nodes, using the following command:
”C:\Program files\AP\APOS\Clone\repadmin.exe” /syncall
/A

Following an example of the output:

…

The command doesn't solve any replication problem. It only facilitates

replication to happen at that moment (without waiting for the scheduled
replication) provided there are no replication problems, and thus avoids
situations like the user being found in one node and not found in the other.
Basically it will synchronize the active directory details instantaneously. If a
machine is not able to replicate this means that there is some fault with the
machine (probably due to a bad restore or due to some other reason).
If there is no replication between the nodes before the installation starts, the
installation may fail. If there is a problem with replication contact the next level
of support.

File replication check:

Active Node
Create two files to test File Replication:
If AP1:

copy nul
\\192.168.169.1\c$\winnt\sysvol\domain\scripts\testa.txt
copy nul
\\192.168.170.2\c$\winnt\sysvol\domain\scripts\testb.txt

If AP2:

copy nul
\\192.168.169.3\c$\winnt\sysvol\domain\scripts\testa.txt
copy nul
\\192.168.170.4\c$\winnt\sysvol\domain\scripts\testb.txt

Verify if both files are present in both nodes:

If AP1:

dir \\192.168.169.1\c$\winnt\sysvol\domain\scripts\
dir \\192.168.169.2\c$\winnt\sysvol\domain\scripts\

If AP2:

dir \\192.168.169.3\c$\winnt\sysvol\domain\scripts\
dir \\192.168.169.4\c$\winnt\sysvol\domain\scripts\

Remove the test files:
