When configuring an LVS cluster, you should always begin by
configuring the primary router with the Piranha Configuration Tool. To do this,verify
that the piranha-gui service is running
and an administrative password has been set, as described in
Section 8.2 Setting a
Password for the Piranha Configuration
Tool.
If you are accessing the machine locally, you can open
https://localhost:3636 in a Web browser
to access the Piranha Configuration
Tool. Otherwise, type in the hostname or real IP address for
the server followed by :3636. Once the
browser connects, you will see the screen shown in Figure 10-1.
Click on the Login button and enter
piranha for the Username and the administrative password you created
in the Password field.
The Piranha Configuration Tool is
made of four main screens or panels. In
addition, the Virtual Servers panel
contains four subsections. The CONTROL/MONITORING panel is the first panel after
the login screen.
