Step 3: Defining the service dependencies
You need to define dependencies for the Compose service that will enable the Storage and Network names to start up before the service. If these resources do not start before the service, Compose will not be able to start as it will be searching for the data location.
To define the service dependencies:
- In the left pane of the Failover Cluster Manager console, select Roles.
- From the list of available roles in the right pane of the console, select the role you are working with.
- In the bottom right pane, select the Resource tab. From the list of the available roles, select Compose.
- Right-click the Compose role and select Properties.
- In the Compose Properties window, select the Dependencies tab.
- Click Insert. A new line is added to the Resource list.
- In the Resource column, click the arrow and select the Compose Data storage resource from the list.
- Click Insert and add the Network Name resource (it should have the same name as the cluster).
- Start the Service using the Failover Cluster Manager and access the console using the Network name.
-
Register the license. The license should contain all host names of the cluster.
Information noteTo open the Compose Console, it is recommended to use an address that includes the name or IP address of the cluster machine (as opposed to the specific node name).
Example:
https://cluster_name_ip/qlikcompose/
