Creating the Package Configuration
The package configuration process defines a set of application services
that are run by the package manager when a package starts up on a node
in the cluster. The configuration also includes a prioritized list of cluster
nodes on which the package can run together with definitions of the
acceptable types of failover allowed for the package.
You can create a package using Serviceguard Manager or using HP-UX
commands and editors. The following section describes Serviceguard
Manager configuration. If you are using the Serviceguard command line,
skip ahead to “Using Serviceguard Commands to Configure a Package”
on page 271.
Using Serviceguard Manager to Configure a Package
Serviceguard Manager configuration is available in Serviceguard
Version A.11.16 and later when using Serviceguard Manager A.04.00 or
later. To configure a high availability failover package use the following
steps on the configuration node (ftsys9).
1. Connect to a session server node that has Serviceguard version
A.11.16 or A.11.17 installed. Discover a cluster that has version
A.11.16 or A.11.17. To begin configuration, you will be prompted to
enter the root password for a node in the target cluster, unless your
login already provided it.
2. To create a package, select the cluster on the map or tree. From the
Actions menu, choose Configuration -> Create Package. To
modify, select the package itself and choose Configuration ->
Modify Package
<pkgname>
.
System multi-node packages and multi-node packages do not display
on the map; their properties and menus are available only through
the cluster icon. You cannot create or modify their configuration with
Serviceguard Manager; you must use the command line.
3. Creating the Package Configuration and its Control Script, the
interface will guide you through the steps. Online Help is available
along the way. You can use the suggestions in “Configuring a Failover
