Building Disaster Recovery Serviceguard Solutions Using Metrocluster with Continuous Access for P9000 and XP A.11.00
If the package is configured for a three data center (3DC)
environment, this parameter is applicable only when the
package is attempting to start up in either the primary (DC1)
or secondary (DC2) data center. This parameter is not
relevant in (the third data center) in the recovery cluster. Use
this parameter’s default value in the third data center.
AUTO_SVOLPFUS (Default = 0)
This parameter applies when the PVOL and SVOL both have
the state of suspended (PFUS) due to the side file reaching
threshold while in Asynchronous mode only. When the PVOL
and SVOL are in this state, the Continuous Access link is
suspended, the data on the PVOL is not remotely protected,
and the data on the SVOL will not be current. When starting
the package in this state, you run the risk of losing any data
that has been written to the PVOL side.
Values:
0 – (Default) Do NOT startup the package at the secondary
site and allowing restart on another node. Require user
intervention to either fix the problem by resynchronizing the
PVOL and SVOL or force the package to start on this node
by creating the FORCEFLAG.
1 – Startup the package after making the SVOL writable.
The risk of using this option is that the SVOL data might
actually be non-current and the data written to the PVOL
side after the hardware failure might be loss.
This parameter is not required to be set if a package is
configured for three data centers environment because three
data center does not support Asynchronous mode of data
replication. Leave this parameter with its default value in all
data centers.
AUTO_SVOLPSUE (Default = 0)
This parameter is applicable when the PVOL and SVOL both
have the state of PSUE. This state combination occurs when
there is an Continuous Access link, or other hardware failure,
or when the SVOL side is in a PSUE state while we can not
communicate with the PVOL side. This will only apply while
in the Asynchronous mode.
The SVOL side becomes PSUE after the Continuous Access
link timeout value has been exceeded at which time the
PVOL side will try and flush any outstanding data to the
SVOL side. If this flush is unsuccessful, then the data on the
SVOL side will not be current.
Values:
0 – (Default) Do NOT startup the package at the secondary
site and allow package to try another node. Require user
intervention to either fix the problem by resynchronizing the
PVOL and SVOL or force the package to start on this node
by creating the FORCEFLAG file.
1 – Startup the package on the SVOL side. The risk of using
this option is that the SVOL data might actually be
non-current and the data written to the PVOL side after the
hardware failure might be loss.
This parameter is not required to be set if a package is
configured for three data centers environment because three
