HP 3PAR Cluster Extension Software Administrator Guide (5697-2047, June 2012)

COMMON objects
The COMMON section is used to set the environment of HP 3PAR Cluster Extension.
The COMMON tag can appear in the configuration file only once. The COMMON object does
not require any value.
Objects of the type COMMON can appear only one time. Those objects must be placed after the
COMMON tag in the configuration file.
If the default values fit your environment, there is no need to specify them in the file.

recoverable.

as disk status.

APPLICATION objects
The APPLICATION section defines the failback behavior of HP 3PAR Cluster Extension for each
application service. APPLICATION is a multitag that can appear in the configuration file for each
application service using HP 3PAR Cluster Extension.
The APPLICATION object requires the name of the application service as its value. The objects
specified after an APPLICATION tag must appear only once per application. As with COMMON
objects, APPLICATION objects have predefined default values.
HP 3PAR Cluster Extension uses the following rules to define objects:
• If you use the default value, you do not need to specify the object.
• The pre-execution and post-execution functions in HP 3PAR Cluster Extension will not be
processed if the associated object values are empty. This is the default setting.
To set APPLICATION object values for the CLI, modify the user configuration file.
To set APPLICATION object values for MSCS, use the MSCS Cluster Administrator GUI (Windows
Server 2003) or Failover Cluster Management (Windows Server 2008/2008 R2)
