Mc: Managing an Eon Mode database in the cloud

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

After you provision your cluster and database in the cloud, the screens and techniques you use to monitor the database are the same regardless of the database mode or cluster platform. (Exceptions are noted in the documentation for particular features.)

Using MC to monitor your cluster, you can monitor the nodes in your subcluster, load data, run queries, and perform all other monitoring tasks for subclusters and nodes.

For details about OpenText™ Analytics Database and the supported cloud providers, see Set up the database on the cloud.

Monitoring primary and secondary subclusters

The Cluster > Manage page Database tab lets you monitor your database nodes in visual format. MC supports only the monitoring features on the Database tab, as described in Viewing and managing your cluster.

You can use the Manage > Subclusters tab to monitor your subcluster and nodes:

The Subclusters tab displays the following subcluster information:

Subcluster name
Whether it is primary or secondary
Total number of nodes
Number of down nodes in that subcluster

In addition, the tab displays the following node information:

Node name
Private IP address
UP or DOWN status
CPU
Memory
Disk usage percentages
Available node actions

Searching for nodes

On the Manage > Subclusters tab in MC, you can search for a specific node or group of nodes.

In the node name or IP field above the subcluster:

To find a single node, enter a complete node name or IP address.
To find a related group of nodes, enter a partial node name or IP address that those nodes share.

Management Console provides specific resources for managing database clusters on AWS.

You can provision an Eon Mode or Enterprise Mode database cluster on AWS.

You can revive an Eon Mode database cluster on AWS. For more information, see Reviving an Eon Mode database on AWS in MC.

The MC provision and revive wizards for AWS configure separate volumes for the data, depot, catalog, and temp database directories. The specific volumes it uses for each directory depend upon the mode and the specific AWS instance type you select when you provision or revive the cluster. For details on the volumes configured for clusters on AWS, see:

Management Console (MC) supports both Eon Mode and Enterprise Mode clusters on Microsoft Azure as described in the following table:

Architecture	Description
Eon Mode	Deploy an MC instance, and then provision and create an Eon Mode database from the MC. For more details, see the following: Creating an Eon Mode cluster and database in Azure in MC Adding subclusters in MC
Enterprise Mode	Deploy a four-node database comprised of one MC instance and three database nodes. In Enterprise Mode, the database uses the MC primarily as a monitoring tool. For example, you cannot provision and create a database with an Enterprise Mode MC. For information about creating and managing an Enterprise Mode database, see Create a database using administration tools.

Architecture

Description

Eon Mode

Deploy an MC instance, and then provision and create an Eon Mode database from the MC. For more details, see the following:

Enterprise Mode

Deploy a four-node database comprised of one MC instance and three database nodes. In Enterprise Mode, the database uses the MC primarily as a monitoring tool. For example, you cannot provision and create a database with an Enterprise Mode MC.

For information about creating and managing an Enterprise Mode database, see Create a database using administration tools.

For additional details, see Vertica on Microsoft Azure.

Provision and monitor clusters

You can use MC to provision an Eon Mode database cluster on Azure. For details, see Creating an Eon Mode cluster and database in Azure in MC.

MC provides specific resources for monitoring database clusters on Azure. For details, see Managing an Eon Mode database in the cloud.

You can revive a stopped Eon Mode database on Azure using MC. For details, see Reviving an Eon Mode database on Azure in MC.

Managing your cluster in MC

On the MC home page, click View Infrastructure. MC displays the Database and Cluster View. This view shows your infrastructure platform, cluster, and database.
On the left side of the screen next to Clusters, click the square for the cluster you want to manage. MC displays a window with your cluster name, an information summary, and several buttons.
Click Manage. The Cluster page displays.
On the Cluster page, you can view the following information:
- The instances in your cluster in visual format.
- The status of each instance, whether it is running.
- The private and public IP address for each cluster instance.
- The OpenText™ Analytics Database version that is running, your region, and your instance type in the Cluster pane.

Cluster actions on Azure in MC

On the Cluster page, you can perform the following cluster actions:

Start Cluster: Starts the instances, then starts the database. For Eon Mode databases, MC repopulates the nodes with data from the storage account container.
Stop Cluster: Stops the nodes in the database, then stops their cloud instances.
Advanced > Terminate: Stops the database, then terminates the cloud instances.

Subcluster management

You can add, Scale Up, Scale Down, remove, and terminate subclusters with MC. For details, see the following:

Node management

You add or delete nodes by scaling subclusters up or down. You can also start, stop, and restart nodes. For details, see the following:

Restrictions

You cannot revive an Eon Mode database with the MC.

Mc: Google Cloud Platform in MC

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

Management Console (MC) supports cluster, subcluster, and node actions on Google Cloud Platform (GCP).

Provision, monitor, and revive clusters

You can use MC to provision an Eon Mode database cluster on GCP. For details, see Provision an Eon Mode cluster and database on GCP in MC.

MC provides specific resources for monitoring database clusters on GCP. For details, see Managing an Eon Mode database in the cloud.

You can revive a stopped Eon Mode database on GCP using MC. For details, see Reviving an Eon Mode database on GCP in MC.

Managing your cluster in MC

On the MC home page, click View Infrastructure. MC displays the Database and Cluster View. This view shows your infrastructure platform, cluster, and database.
On the left side of the screen next to Clusters, click the square for the cluster you want to manage. MC displays a window with your cluster name, an information summary, and several buttons.
Click Manage. The Cluster page displays.
On the Cluster page, you can view the following information:
- The instances in your cluster in visual format.
- The status of each instance, whether it is running.
- The private and public IP address for each cluster instance.
- The OpenText™ Analytics Database version that is running, your region, and your instance type in the Cluster pane.

Cluster actions on GCP in MC

On the Cluster page, you can perform the following cluster actions:

Start Cluster: Starts the instances, then starts the database. For Eon Mode databases, MC repopulates the nodes with data from the storage account container.
Stop Cluster: Stops the nodes in the database, then stops their cloud instances.
Advanced > Terminate: Stops the database, then terminates the cloud instances.

Note

If a GCP instance has a local SSD attached, Google does not allow you to stop the instance. If you do shut down an instance with a local SSD through the guest operating system, you will not be able to restart the instance, and the data on the local SSD will be lost.

Subcluster management

You can add, Scale Up, Scale Down, remove, and terminate subclusters with MC. For details, see the following:

Node management

You add or delete nodes by scaling subclusters up or down. You can also start, stop, and restart nodes. For details, see the following:

Restrictions

Subclusters are supported in Eon Mode only, not in Enterprise Mode.
Node actions are not supported in MC on GCP.
