Creating the Package Configuration
Chapter 6 253
• FAILBACK_POLICY. Enter either MANUAL or AUTOMATIC.
• NODE_NAME. Enter the name of each node in the cluster on a separate
line.
• AUTO_RUN. Enter YES to allow the package to start on the first
available node, or NO to keep the package from automatic startup.
• LOCAL_LAN_FAILOVER_ALLOWED. Enter YES to permit switching of the
package IP address to a standby LAN, or NO to keep the package from
switching locally.
• RUN_SCRIPT and HALT_SCRIPT. Specify the pathname of the package
control script (described in the next section). No default is provided.
• STORAGE_GROUP. Specify the names of any CVM storage groups that
will be used by this package. Enter each storage group (CVM disk
group) on a separate line. Note that CVM storage groups are not
entered in the cluster ASCII configuration file.
NOTE You should not enter LVM volume groups or VxVM disk groups in
this file.
• If your package contains services, enter the SERVICE_NAME,
SERVICE_FAIL_FAST_ENABLED and SERVICE_HALT_TIMEOUT. values.
Enter a group of these three for each service. You can configure no
more than 30 services per package.
• If your package has IP addresses associated with it, enter the
SUBNET. This must be a subnet that is already specified in the cluster
configuration, and it can be either an IPv4 or an IPv6 subnet.
Link-local package IPs are not allowed, hence link-local subnets
must not be entered in the package ASCII file.
• NODE_FAIL_FAST_ENABLED parameter. Enter YES or NO.
• To configure monitoring within the package for a registered resource,
enter values for the following parameters.
• RESOURCE_NAME. Enter the name of a registered resource that is to be
monitored by Serviceguard.
• RESOURCE_POLLING_INTERVAL. Enter the time between attempts to
assure that the resource is healthy.
