Using Serviceguard Extension for RAC Version A.11.20 - (August 2011)

Package Switching Attributes
Packages also have the following switching attributes:
• Package Switching. Enabled—the package can switch to another node in the event of
failure.
• Switching Enabled for a Node. Enabled—the package can switch to the referenced
node. Disabled—the package cannot switch to the specified node until the node is enabled
for the package using the cmmodpkg command.
Every package is marked Enabled or Disabled for each node that is either a primary or
adoptive node for the package.
For multi-node packages, node switching Disabled means the package cannot start on that
node.
Status of Group Membership
The state of the cluster for Oracle RAC is one of the following:
• Up. Services are active and being monitored. The membership appears in the output of
cmviewcl -l group.
• Down. The cluster is halted and GMS services have been stopped. The membership does not
appear in the output of the cmviewcl -l group.
The following is an example of the group membership output shown in the cmviewcl command:
# cmviewcl -l group

DBOP 1 10501 comanche

DAALL_DB 0 10396 comanche
1 10501 chinook
IGOPALL 2 10423 comanche
1 10528 chinook
where the cmviewcl output values are the following:
• GROUP—The name of a configured group.
• MEMBER—The ID number of a member of a group.
• PID—The Process ID of the group member.
• MEMBER_NODE—The Node on which the group member is running.
Service Status
Services have only status, as follows:
• Up—The service is being monitored.
• Down—The service is not running. It may have halted or failed.
• Uninitialized—The service is included in the package configuration, but it was not started
with a run command in the control script.
