— concurrent_mount_and_umount_operations (see page 294)
You can also use the fsck_opt and fs_umount_opt parameters to
specify the -s option of the fsck and mount/umount commands (see
page 296).
• You can use the pev_ parameter to specify a variable to be passed to
external scripts. Make sure the variable name begins with the
upper-case or lower-case letters pev and an underscore (_). You can
specify more than one variable. See “About External Scripts” on
page 178, and the comments in the configuration file, for more
details.
• If you want the package to run an external “pre-script” during
startup and shutdown, use the external_pre_script parameter
(see page 297) to specify the full pathname of the script, for example
/etc/cmcluster/pkg1/pre_script1.
• If the package will run an external script, use the external_script
parameter (see page 297) to specify the full pathname of the script,
for example /etc/cmcluster/pkg1/script1.
See “About External Scripts” on page 178, and the comments in the
configuration file, for more information.
• To coordinate the startup and shutdown of database software with
cluster node startup and shutdown, you can use the database
template files provided with the separately purchasable Enterprise
Cluster Master Toolkit product.
These files are in /opt/cmcluster/toolkit/DB/. Separate toolkits
are available for Oracle, Informix, and Sybase.
In addition to the standard package script, you use the special script
that is provided for the database. To set up these scripts, follow the
instructions in the README file provided with each toolkit.
