HP Serviceguard for Linux Version A.11.18 Release Notes, 2nd Edition, March 2009
NOTE: On HP Integrity servers, sfdisk does not exist. Run vgscan, then if
vgscan does not find the volume group, you will need to reboot the node.
10. Back up the configuration: vgcfgbackup /dev/vgclog
Using the Command Line to Configure the Package clog for Consolidated Logging
When configuring the package clog in a cluster, you can either create it as a server,
which receives logging from all the configured clients, or as a client, which forwards
syslog files and package logs to the server.
The following instructions are for configuring the cluster as server. All the cluster nodes
should be up during the process. The package clog can be created either from the
console using the clog wizard or by using Serviceguard Manager.
1. Run the Clog wizard: /opt/dsau/sbin/clog_wizard
2. Answer the questions asked by the wizard as shown below.
Do you want to configure log consolidation? (y/n) [y]: y
You can configure this cluster <sg_cl> as either a:
- Consolidation server
- Client that forwards logs to a remote consolidation server
Do you want to configure <system_name> as a Consolidation
Server? (y/n) [y]: y
Do you want to continue configuring this cluster as a
Consolidation Server? (y/n) [y]: y
Enter the Volume group []: /dev/vgclog
Enter the Logical Volume []: /dev/vgclog/lvol0
Enter the File system (Mount Point) []: /clog
Enter the Mount Options [-o rw]: -o rw
Enter the File system Type [ext3]: ext3
Enter the IP address []: 16.23.29.131
You need a relocatable IP address for the package, since it needs to fail over to the
adoptive node in case the primary node fails. This example uses 16.23.29.131. You
can find out the subnet using the command netstat –rn
Enter the Subnet []: 16.23.29.255
Do you want to use the TCP protocol? (y/n) [y]: y
Choose a free port on this cluster for receiving logs. The selected port should be
free on all cluster nodes. You can find the available free ports by looking in the
file /etc/services. In this example, it is 1009
