Managing Serviceguard Eighteenth Edition, September 2010

NOTE: A volume group must be configured into the cluster (via the VOLUME_GROUP
parameter) before you can configure it into a modular package. For more information
about cluster parameters, see “Cluster Configuration Parameters ” (page 143).
cvm_dg
Specifies a CVM disk group (one per cvm_dg, each on a new line) used by this package.
CVM disk groups must be specified whether file systems need to be mounted on them
or not. A corresponding cvm_activation_cmd (page 304) specifies how the disk group is
to be activated.
Any package using a CVM disk group must declare a dependency (see the entries for
dependency_name and related parameters starting on (page 294)) on the CVM system
multi-node package. See “Preparing the Cluster for Use with CVM ” (page 269).
vxvm_dg
Specifies a VxVM disk group (one per vxvm_dg, each on a new line) on which a file
system needs to be mounted. See the comments in the package configuration file, and
“Creating the Storage Infrastructure and Filesystems with LVM, VxVM and CVM”
(page 230), for more information.
vxvm_dg_retry
Specifies whether to retry the import of a VxVM disk group, using vxdisk scandisks
to check for any missing disks that might have caused the import to fail. Equivalent to
VXVM_DG_RETRY in the legacy package control script.
Legal values are yes and no. yes means vxdisk scandisks will be run in the event
of an import failure. The default is no.
HP recommends setting this parameter to yes in Metrocluster installations using EMC
SRDF.
IMPORTANT: vxdisk scandisks can take a long time in the case of a large IO
subsystem.
deactivation_retry_count
Specifies how many times the package shutdown script will repeat an attempt to
deactivate a volume group (LVM) or disk group (VxVM, CVM) before failing.
Legal value is zero or any greater number. As of A.11.18, the default is 2.
kill_processes_accessing_raw_devices
Specifies whether or not to kill processes that are using raw devices (for example,
database applications) when the package shuts down. Default is no. See the comments
in the package configuration file for more information.
