Check the mirror status of the mirrored partition by starting NSSMU and selecting the RAID
device you created in
Step 11 on page 32
.
NSSMU displays the mirror status of the RAID device. If the partitions are still synchronizing,
it could take time for NSSMU to display the mirror status.

Migrate the pool to another server in the cluster and check again to ensure that the volumes on
the pool are mounted by entering
nsscon volumes

Using NSSMU, check the mirror status of the partition again.
IMPORTANT:
If you create or delete a pool or partition on shared storage that is part of a business
continuity cluster, you must run the
cluster scan for new devices
command on a server in
each of the other clusters that belong to the business continuity cluster.
2.3.2 Configuring SAN-Based Mirroring
Consult your SAN vendor or SAN vendor documentation for instructions on configuring SAN-
based mirroring.
2.3.3 LUN Masking
We recommend that you implement LUN masking in your business continuity cluster for data
protection. LUN masking is provided by your SAN vendor.
LUN masking is the ability to exclusively assign each LUN to one or more host connections. With it
you can assign appropriately sized pieces of storage from a common storage pool to various servers.
See your SAN vendor documentation for more information on configuring LUN masking.
2.4 Setting Up Novell Business Continuity
Clustering Software
After you have installed and configured Identity Manager and the Business Continuity Clustering
software, and you have configured file system mirroring, you need to set up the Novell Business
Continuity Clustering software.
