Using Serviceguard Extension for RAC, 6th Edition, April 2008

IMPORTANT: Creating a rootdg disk group is only necessary the first time you use
the Volume Manager. CVM 4.1 or later does not require a rootdg.
Using CVM 4.x or later
This section has information on how to set up the cluster and the system multi-node
package with CVM (without the CFS filesystem); (on HP-UX releases that support
them; see “About Veritas CFS and CVM from Symantec” (page 25)).
Preparing the Cluster and the System Multi-node Package for use with CVM 4.x or later
The following steps describe how to prepare the cluster and the system multi-node
package with CVM 4.x or later only.
1. Create the Cluster file:
# cd /etc/cmcluster
# cmquerycl -C clm.asc -n ever3a -n ever3b
Edit Cluster file
2. Create the Cluster
# cmapplyconf -C clm.asc
• Start the Cluster
# cmruncl
# cmviewcl
The following output will be displayed:
CLUSTER STATUS
ever3_cluster up
NODE STATUS STATE
ever3a up running
ever3b up running
3. Configure the Cluster Volume Manager (CVM)
Configure the system multi-node package, SG-CFS-pkg, to configure and start
the CVM stack. Unlike VxVM-CVM-pkg, the SG-CFS-pkg does not restrict heartbeat
subnets to a single subnet and supports multiple subnets.
Use the cmapplyconf command:
# cmapplyconf -P /etc/cmcluster/cfs/SG-CFS-pkg.conf
# cmrunpkg SG-CFS-pkg
