Building an HA Cluster Configuration
Creating the Storage Infrastructure and Filesystems with VERITAS Cluster Volume Manager (CVM)
Chapter 5246
• VERITAS CVM 3.5:
# cmapplyconf -P /etc/cmcluster/cvm/VxVM-CVM-pkg.conf
• VERITAS CVM 4.1: If you are not using VERITAS Cluster File
System, use the cmapplyconf command. (If you are using CFS, you
will set up CVM as part of the CFS components.):
# cmapplyconf -P /etc/cmcluster/cfs/SG-CFS-pkg.conf
Begin package verification ...
Modify the package configuration ([y]/n)? Y
Completed the cluster update
You can confirm this using the cmviewcl command. This output shows
results of the CVM 3.5 command above.
CLUSTER STATUS
example up
NODE STATUS STATE
ftsys9 up running
ftsys10 up running
MULTI_NODE_PACKAGES:
PACKAGE STATUS STATE AUTO_RUN SYSTEM
VxVM-CVM-pkg up running enabled yes
NOTE Do not edit system multi-node package configuration files, such as
VxVM-CVM-pkg.conf and SG-CFS-pkg.conf. Create and modify
configuration using the cfs admin commands listed in Appendix A.
Starting the Cluster and Identifying the Master Node
If it is not already running, start the cluster. This will automatically
activate the special CVM package:
# cmruncl
When CVM starts up, it selects a master node, and this is the node from
which you must issue the disk group configuration commands. To
determine the master node, issue the following command from each node
in the cluster:
