NOTE Do not use STORAGE_GROUP parameters to
reference CVM disk groups in a cluster using the CFS
file system. CFS resources are controlled by two
multi-node packages, one for the disk group and one for
the mount point.
NOTE Use the parameter for CVM storage only. Do not enter
CVM disk groups that are used in a CFS cluster.
Additionally, do not enter the names of LVM volume
groups or VxVM disk groups in the package ASCII
configuration file.
Service name Enter a unique name for each service. In the ASCII
package configuration file, this parameter is called
SERVICE_NAME.
Define one SERVICE_NAME entry for each service.You
can configure a maximum of 30 services per package
and 900 services per cluster. The service name must
not contain any of the following illegal characters:
space, slash (/), backslash (\), and asterisk (*). All other
characters are legal. The service name can contain up
to 39 characters.
Service fail fast Enter Enabled or Disabled for each service. This
parameter indicates whether or not the failure of a
service results in the failure of a node. If the parameter
is set to Enabled, in the event of a service failure,
Serviceguard will halt the node on which the service is
running with a TOC. (An attempt is first made to
reboot the node prior to the TOC.)The default is
Disabled.
In the ASCII package configuration file, this parameter
is SERVICE_FAIL_FAST_ENABLED, and possible values
are YES and NO. The default is NO. Define one
SERVICE_FAIL_FAST_ENABLED entry for each service.
