How to create a same Web Server on multi Windows cluster nodes with IIS

This QSG shows how to create a same Website on 2 nodes which are Windows and clustered with Mirror Disk.

Sample Cluster Configuration

  • Failover group1
    • md1
      • Data Partition: E drive
      • Cluster Partition: X drive
    • cifs1
      • Execute the automatic saving of shared configuration of drive: Check
      • Target Drive: E drive
      • Shared Configuration File: E:\shared.conf
    • fip1
      • 192.168.11.101
    • service1
      • Service Name: World Wide Web Publishing Service
      • Do not assume it as an error when the service is already started: Check
  • Failover group2
    • fip2
      • 192.168.11.201
    • service2
      • Service Name: World Wide Web Publishing Service
      • Do not assume it as an error when the service is already started: Check

Setup

Install EXPRESSCLUSTER

On both nodes

  1. Create partitions for Mirror Disk.
  2. Install EXPRESSCLUSTER X.
  3. Register EXPRESSCULSTER licenses.

Install IIS

On both nodes

  1. Start Server Manager and Add roles and features
  2. Install Web Server (IIS)

Setup basic cluster

On Primary node

  1. Create a cluster
  • Failover group1
    • md1
    • cifs1
      • Execute the automatic saving of shared configuration of drive: Check
      • Target Drive: E: drive
      • Shared Configuration File: E:\shared.conf
    • fip1
      • 192.168.11.101
    • service1
      • Service Name: World Wide Web Publishing Service
      • Do not assume it as an error when the service is already started: Check
  • Failover group2
    • fip2
      • 192.168.11.201
    • service2
      • Service Name: World Wide Web Publishing Service
      • Do not assume it as an error when the service is already started: Check
  1. Apply the config

Preparation for IIS

On Primary node

  1. Create a folder for IIS
    e.g.) E:\IIS_root
  2. Share the folder for both cluster nodes user accounts

Setup IIS

On Active Server

  1. Start IIS Manager

  2. Remove Default Site

  3. Add 2 Websites

    • Website 1
      • Physical Path: \192.168.11.101\IIS_root (The shared folder)
      • "Connect as" button -> "Specific user" -> Set user name and password to access the shared folder "E:\IIS_root"
      • "Test Settings" button
        * If IIS shows connection errors, check the shared folder is accessible or not.
      • Binding IP address: 192.168.11.101 (fip1)
    • Website 2
      • Physical Path: \192.168.11.101\IIS_root (The shared folder)
      • "Connect as" button -> "Specific user" -> Set user name and password to access the shared folder "E:\IIS_root"
      • "Test Settings" button
        * If IIS shows connection errors, check the shared folder is accessible or not.
      • Binding IP address: 192.168.11.201 (fip2)

  4. Move failover group

  5. Do the same as step 1-3

Memo

  • 2 ノードクラスタの現用系と待機系で、IIS で同じ Web site を立ち上げる。
  • IIS が参照するのは cifs 共有されてる md。
  • 同じサイトを複数サーバで起動する構成。
  • PP ガイドだと script リソースでやってるけど（FO 時に IIS の再起動はいる）、IIS の再起動なくても良さそうなので、サービスリソースで既に活性してる場合無視設定。（FO 時に、クライアント側でブラウザの再読み込みが必要なのを、IIS の再起動入れると解消できたりする？）
  • FTP サービスは試してないけど、同じ方式で行ける気がする。
