Copying tank.properties and the truststore

This topic describes how to copy tank.properties and the truststore from the master metadata server to a subordinate metadata server.

Steps

  1. From the master metadata server, copy tank.properties to the subordinate metadata server.
    scp /usr/tank/admin/config/tank.properties
    root@metadata_server_name:/usr/tank/admin/config/tank.properties

    For example:

    scp /usr/tank/admin/config/tank.properties 
    root@sub_mds1:/usr/tank/admin/config/tank.properties
    Attention: When you copy tank.properties and then run setupsfs on the subordinate metadata server, the IP address and server name of the master metadata server are displayed as a default. Make sure that you change these values to match the appropriate values for the subordinate metadata server.
  2. Copy the truststore file to the subordinate metadata server. If you are using secured LDAP, the truststore file also contains the LDAP certificate.
    scp /usr/tank/admin/truststore 
    userID@metadata_server_name:/usr/tank/admin/truststore
