Starting a Cluster

This procedure describes how to start all Spectrum Technology Platform nodes in a cluster when all nodes are stopped.

  1. Start all nodes in the cluster consecutively.
    Right click the Spectrum Technology Platform icon in the system tray and then select Start Spectrum.
    Make sure that you start node-2 within a few seconds after starting node-1. Repeat this for each remaining node in the cluster.
  2. Tell when the Spectrum Technology Platform server has completely started by looking in the log file:
    SpectrumDirectory\server\logs\spectrum-server.log

    This message is displayed when the server is completely started:

    Precisely Spectrum Technology Platform  (Version Version Number) Started.

    The log will show the IP address for one of the nodes bound to the Spectrum Technology Platform service.
