Chapter 17: Other Cluster Maintenance 182
Because the error is server-specific, you must clear it on each server in the
cluster (just as you had to correct the script on each server that reported a
problem).
NOTE: An error on a monitor may still be indicated after correcting the
problem with the Start, Stop, Recovery, or probe script. Errors can
be cleared only with the HP CFS Management Console or the
appropriate mx command. An error will not be automatically
cleared by the ClusterPulse process. The date and time of the
script event are available in the event log.
Monitor Activity
Service and device monitors report one of the following as their activity
status:
• (activity unknown)
• Transitioning
•Starting
• Stopping
•Inactive
•Active
The activity status is not an error condition; it represents the activity of
scripts associated with the monitor. However, if the activity status
continues to have a value other than Active or Inactive, there may be a
script problem that requires attention. Active status indicates that the
probe script will be executed at the probe frequency. Inactive status
means that the monitor is not the only one currently providing the
service. For example, when the primary server is functioning normally, a
monitor on a backup server may show an Inactive status. The probe script
is still executed in the Inactive state.
Typically, the status is Active on all appropriate servers, as it is important
to continue to probe the service on backup servers as well as on the
primary servers.
