HP Serviceguard Enterprise Cluster Master Toolkit User Guide (5900-2145, April 2013)

Table Of Contents
1. Consider that Sybase ASE is installed in /home/sybase; create symbolic links to all
subdirectories under /home/sybase. Exclude the dbs directory (dbs contains important instance
configuration files, and the DBS directory should reside in the shared storage in
${ASE_SERVER}, for example, /SYBASE0/dbs).
2. Test the setup to ensure Sybase ASE can be properly brought up.
3. Repeat this step on all other clustered nodes that must be configured to run the package, to
ensure Sybase ASE can be brought up and down successfully.
4. Create the Serviceguard package using modular package method
5. Create a package configuration file (SYBASE0.conf) as follows:
cmmakepkg -m ecmt/sybase/sybase -p SYBASE0.conf
The configuration file must be edited as indicated by the comments in that file. The package
name must be unique within the cluster. For clarity, use the $ASE_SERVER to name the package
"package_name <ASE_SERVER>"
The Serviceguard package configuration file (SYBASE0.conf)
The following are some examples of modifications that must be made to the Serviceguard package
configuration file, to customize your environment.
For example:
package_name SYBASE0
List the names of the clustered nodes that must be configured to run the package, using the
node_name parameter:
node_name node1
node_name node2
The following is an example of specifying Sybase ASE specific variables:
ecmt/sybase/sybase/TKIT_DIR /tmp/SYBASE0
ecmt/sybase/sybase/SYBASE /home/sybase
ecmt/sybase/sybase/SYBASE_ASE ASE-15_0
ecmt/sybase/sybase/SYBASE_OCS OCS-15_0
ecmt/sybase/sybase/SYBASE_ASE_ADMIN sybase
ecmt/sybase/sybase/SALOGIN sa
ecmt/sybase/sybase/PASSWD_FILE password file name with full path
NOTE: You can retain the ecmt/sybase/sybase/PASSWD_FILE variable as commented if
the password for the administrator is not set. You can use the HP-UX access control to protect
theecmt/sybase/sybase/PASSWD_FILE variable from unauthorized user access.
ecmt/sybase/sybase/ASE_SERVER SYBASE0
ecmt/sybase/sybase/ASE_RUNSCRIPT /home/sybase/ASE-15_0/install/RUN_SYBASE0
ecmt/sybase/sybase/USER_SHUTDOWN_MODE wait
The default is "wait". If you want the ASE instance to abort immediately and therefore perform an
unclean shutdown, this should be specified as "nowait".
ecmt/sybase/sybase/MONITOR_INTERVAL 5
ecmt/sybase/sybase/TIME_OUT 30
ecmt/sybase/sybase/RECOVERY_TIMEOUT 30
ecmt/sybase/sybase/MONITOR_PROCESSES dataserver
ecmt/sybase/sybase/MAINTENANCE_FLAG yes
Define the volume groups that are used by the Sybase ASE instance. File systems associated with
these volume groups are defined as follows:
