What’s in this Version
The Serviceguard NFS Toolkit for Linux provides high availability for an
NFS server application. The A.01.03 version of Serviceguard NFS
Toolkit for Linux contains the following:
• Simple failover from an active NFS server node to an idle NFS server
node.
• Failover from one active NFS server node to another active NFS
server node, where the adoptive node supports more than one NFS
package after the failover.
• A host configured as an adoptive node for more than one NFS
package. The host may also be prevented from adopting more than
one failed package at a time.
• Cascading failover, where a package may have several adoptive
nodes configured to run the package.
•Fixes
One shell script (the NFS control script) is provided as a template can be
customized for your specific needs.
One configuration file ( hanfs.conf) is introduced which allows the
option to monitor the quotad daemon. If QUOTA_MON is set to YES,
toolkit will start rpc.quotad (if not already running) and will monitor this
daemon. If it is set to NO, the toolkit will not start or monitor
rpc.quotad. The default value for QUOTA_MON variable is YES.
After the shell scripts are installed they are located in the following
location:
• RedHat distributions: /usr/local/cmcluster/nfstoolkit
• SLES distributions: /opt/cmcluster/nfstoolkit
The binary file is located in /usr/bin on your Linux platforms.
Complete details about supported configurations are found in the
Serviceguard for Linux Cluster Configuration Guide, available on the
