Step 1: Create a bare VM.
5. (Only for vAG, vLB, vAG/vLB) Set 'NIC type' to 'HW_V_NET'. When create vAG, vLB, vAG/vLB VMs, you should set 'NIC type' to 'HW_V_NET’.
6. Configure NICs. Select port groups based
on actual plan.
• Select the service plane port group for the first NIC;
Select the management plane port group for the second NIC. Among the Linux VMs in the scenarios described in this document, only vAG/vLB VMs have management plane NICs.
7. Click Next.

Step 2 Set the automatic recovery attribute for Linux infrastructure VMs.
1. Log in to the VRM active node by using PuTTY with the VRM floating IP address. The login account is gandalf.
Default password:
Huawei@CLOUD8 2. Run the following command to switch to the root user.
su – root TMOUT=0
Default password:
Huawei@CLOUD8!
3. For each newly created infrastructure VM, run the following command:
sh /opt/galax/vrm/tomcat/script/modifyRecover.sh vmId true vmId is the ID of the VM.
This command must be run for each infrastructure VM.
4. Restart the VRM process.
service vrmd restart
Run this command only after the previous step is complete on all the VMs.
5. On the FusionCompute portal, choose VM and Template, click the VM tab, locate the row that contains the GaussDB/WI/HDC/License VM, choose More > Forcibly stop.
Stop and restart the VM for the configuration to take effect.
6. After Status of the VM changes to Stopped, locate the row that contains the VM, choose Start.
-
7. Refer to 5 to 6 to stop and start all Linux infrastructure VMs. -
Select data stores in different RAID groups for the VMs working in active/standby mode.
CAUTION
Step 3 Set VMs to be mutually exclusive.
1. Choose Computing Pool > Host and Cluster.
2. Open the window for setting resource scheduling policies. To ensure reliability, set the VMs of the same component to be mutually exclusive so that the VMs are always on different host nodes. When a host is faulty, FusionAccess can continue to work properly.
3. Add a rule. -
4. Set Type to Keep VMs mutually exclusive.
5. Add the GaussDB/WI/HDC/License and GaussDB/WI/HDC VMs to Selected VMs.
-
6. Click OK as prompted to add the rule. -
7. Refer to 3 to 6 to set vAG/vLB VMs to be mutually exclusive. -
8. On the lower part of the page, click OK. -

Step 5: Install the PV-Driver.
1. On the FusionCompute portal, mount tools on the GaussDB/WI/HDC/License VM.
Locate the row that contains the
GaussDB/WI/HDC/Licens e VM.
2. Click OK twice. -
3. In the VNC window on the VM, install the PV-Driver.
4. Press Enter twice to install the PV-Driver. -
5. After the PV-Driver is installed, press F8 as prompted to restart the VM. - 6. After the restart, log in to the VM as the root user. -
Step 6 Install other VMs.
1. Refer to step 4 to step 5 in this section to install the following software on the GaussDB/HDC/WI VM and the active and standby vAG/vLB VMs:
1. Install the OS.
2. Install the PV-Driver.
You can install OS on different VMs at the same time. After OS installation, perform subsequent operation.
