Accessing the VCS Cluster Manager (Web Console)

The VCS Web-based Cluster Manager (Web Console) enables you to monitor the cluster from any workstation on the public network. Supported browsers are Netscape Navigator 4.0 or later, or Internet Explorer 4.0 or later.

When VCS starts running in the cluster and the ClusterService Group comes up, the Web Console server starts. To access the Web Console:

1. From the browser, navigate to the Web Console by entering:
     http://web_gui_IP_address:8181/vcs

   For example:

   
     http://10.129.96.64:8181/vcs

   The IP address is the "Cluster virtual IP address" configured into the ClusterService Group.

2. On the Login screen, enter a valid user name and password. By default, the administrator of a new installation can log in as "admin" and use "password" as a password. For security, change your password at your earliest convenience.
3. Click Login to enter the Cluster Summary view.
