Integrating HA Applications with Serviceguard
Checklist for Integrating HA Applications
Appendix D432
c. Install the appropriate executables.
d. With the application not running on the first system, try to bring
it up on the second system. You might use the script you created
in the step above. Is there anything different that you must do?
Does it run?
e. Repeat this process until you can get the application to run on
the second system.
2. Configure the Serviceguard cluster:
a. Create the cluster configuration.
b. Create a package.
c. Create the package script.
d. Use the simple scripts you created in earlier steps as the
customer defined functions in the package control script.
3. Start the cluster and verify that applications run as planned.
4. If you will be building an application that depends on a cluster file
system, then consider the following:
a. Use the CVM and VxVM Worksheet in Chapter 4 to define the
disk group, volume groups, and file system mount points that the
application will depend on.
b. Build storage on all nodes of the cluster.
c. Create the disk group and mount point packages.
d. Make sure that your file systems are mounting and unmounting
on the nodes as they are designed to do on your application
layout.
e. Once the SG-CFS-DG-
ID# and SG-CFS-MP- ID# packages are
running as desired, create your application packages, placing a
dependency on the SG-CFS-MP-
ID# package if desired.
