Using Serviceguard Extension for RAC, 8th Edition, March 2009
The following output will be generated:
Shared disk group “cfsdg1” was disassociated from the cluster.
NOTE: “cfsmntadm delete” also deletes the disk group if there is no dependent package.
To ensure the disk group deletion is complete, use the above command to delete the disk
group package.
4. De-configure CVM
# cfscluster stop
The following output will be generated:
Stopping CVM...CVM is stopped
# cfscluster unconfig
The following output will be generated:
CVM is now unconfigured
Creating a Storage Infrastructure with CVM
In addition to configuring the cluster, you create the appropriate logical volume infrastructure
to provide access to data from different nodes. This is done with Logical Volume Manager (LVM),
Veritas Volume Manager (VxVM), or Veritas Cluster Volume Manager (CVM). LVM and VxVM
configuration are done before cluster configuration, and CVM configuration is done after cluster
configuration (on HP-UX releases that support them; see “About Veritas CFS and CVM from
Symantec” (page 18)).
This section shows how to configure storage using the Veritas Cluster Volume Manager (CVM).
The examples show how to configure RAC disk groups, but you can also create CVM disk groups
for non-RAC use. For more information, including details about configuration of plexes (mirrors),
multi-pathing, and RAID, refer to the HP-UX documentation for the Veritas Volume Manager.
Initializing the Veritas Volume Manager
If you are about to create disk groups for the first time, you need to initialize the Volume Manager.
This is done by creating a disk group known as rootdg that contains at least one disk. Use the
following command after installing CVM on each node:
# vxinstall
This displays a menu-driven program that steps you through the CVM initialization sequence.
From the main menu, choose the “Custom” option, and specify the disk you wish to include in
rootdg.
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 prepare the cluster and the system multi-node package
with CVM 4.x or later only (without the CFS filesystem); (on HP-UX releases that support them;
see “About Veritas CFS and CVM from Symantec” (page 18)).
For more detailed information on how to configure CVM 4.x or later, refer the Managing
Serviceguard Sixteenth Edition user’s guide.
