Post-Installation Steps for Configuring a Cluster
The following instructions should be performed to complete a cluster setup:
1. If you are configuring a dedicated master in the cluster, use the xconfmanager utility to set the following property:
wt.cache.master.hostname=[hostnames allowed to become a master]
For more information on this configuration, see the section Configuring a Dedicated Cluster Master.
2. Copy the changes to files in the Windchill, PTC HTTP Server, and Embedded Servlet Engine directories from the master cache server to the slave cache server. To do the copy, you can use rsync or any other tool of your choice (such as robocopy).
For information about rsync, see rsync Instructions.
3. Create an entry in the local hosts file on the machine where you are installing Windchill. The entry resolves the cluster host name to 127.0.0.1. The local hosts file can be found in the following locations:
◦ UNIX: /etc/hosts
◦ Windows: C:/WINNT/System32/Drivers/Etc/Hosts
For example, use the following line if wc-cluster.company.com is the host name of the cluster:
127.0.0.1 wc-cluster.company.com
4. Properly tunnel RMI requests over HTTP. For more information about tunneling RMI requests over HTTP, see Configuring RMI for Tunneling over HTTP.
