Serviceguard Extension for Faster Failover (SGeFF) is a separately
purchased product. If it is installed, the configuration file will display the
parameter to enable it.
SGeFF reduces the time it takes Serviceguard to process a failover. It
cannot, however, change the time it takes for packages and applications
to gracefully shut down and restart.
SGeFF has requirements for cluster configuration, as outlined in the
cluster configuration template file.
