HP P6000 Cluster Extension Software Administrator Guide (5697-0986, June 2011)

This object is used by all components within P6000 Cluster Extension that interface
with HP SMI-S including the clxconf utility, the Connection Test function in the
administrator GUI and the P6000 Cluster Extension resource DLL.
You must consider this when setting the SmisRequestTimeout to a value other than
the default.
Setting the SmisRequestTimeout to a value less than the default will increase the
chance that the P6000 Cluster Extension resource DLL will time out and not complete
the online of the P6000 Cluster Extension resource. Setting the SmisRequestTimeout
to a value greater than the default will increase the time in which you will get a
response from user interface functions such as the Connection Test function and the
clxconf utility if HP SMI-S does in fact have a longer response time than the
SmisRequestTimeout value.
Default value 180000
APPLICATION objects
The APPLICATION section defines the failback behavior of P6000 Cluster Extension for each application
service. APPLICATION is a multitag that can appear in the configuration file for each application
service using P6000 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.
P6000 Cluster Extension uses the following rules to define objects:
• If you use the default value, you do not need to specify the object.
• P6000 Cluster Extension uses objects that might depend upon on the settings of other objects. For
example, if you set FailsafeMode to ENABLE, P6000 Cluster Extension uses the values specified
for FailsafeModeOverride. However, this object is ignored if you set FailsafeMode to disable.
• The pre-execution and post-execution functions in P6000 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).
To set APPLICATION object values for RHCS and SLE HA, use the P6000 Cluster Extension resource
configuration file.
APPLICATION

of the application service. The format of its value is equivalent to a string value.
