PACKAGE_NAME
# Enter the package type for this package. PACKAGE_TYPE indicates
# whether this package is to run as a FAILOVER or SYSTEM_MULTI_NODE
# package.

# FAILOVER package runs on one node at a time and if a failure
# occurs it can switch to an alternate node.
#
# SYSTEM_MULTI_NODE
# package runs on multiple nodes at the same time.
# It can not be started and halted on individual nodes.
# Both NODE_FAIL_FAST_ENABLED and AUTO_RUN must be set
# to YES for this type of package. All SERVICES must
# have SERVICE_FAIL_FAST_ENABLED set to YES.
#
# NOTE: Packages which have a PACKAGE_TYPE of SYSTEM_MULTI_NODE are
# not failover packages and should only be used for applications
# provided by Hewlett-Packard.
