Cluster and Package Maintenance
Configuring a Legacy Package
Chapter 7 373
• Configured resources are available on cluster nodes.
• If a dependency is configured, the dependency package must already
be configured in the cluster.
Distributing the Configuration
You can use Serviceguard Manager or HP-UX commands to distribute
the binary cluster configuration file among the nodes of the cluster.
DSAU (Distributed Systems Administration Utilities) can help you
streamline your distribution, as explained under “What are the
Distributed Systems Administration Utilities?” on page 33. For more
information on DSAU, see the Distributed Systems Administration
Utilities User’s Guide posted at http://docs.hp.com.
Distributing the Configuration And Control Script with
Serviceguard Manager
When you have finished creating a legacy package in Serviceguard
Manager, click Apply Configuration. If the package control script has
no errors, it is converted to a binary file and distributed to the cluster
nodes.
Copying Package Control Scripts with HP-UX commands
Use HP-UX commands to copy legacy package control scripts from the
node where you created the files, to the same pathname on all nodes
which can possibly run the package. Use your favorite method of file
transfer (e. g., rcp or ftp). For example, from ftsys9, you can issue the
rcp command to copy the package control script to ftsys10:
rcp /etc/cmcluster/pkg1/control.sh \
ftsys10:/etc/cmcluster/pkg1/control.sh
Distributing the Binary Cluster Configuration File with HP-UX
Commands
Use the following steps from the node on which you created the cluster
and package configuration files:
• Verify that the configuration file is correct. Use the following
command:
