Building an HA Cluster Configuration
Configuring the Cluster
Chapter 5 253
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.
Activate the SG-CFS-pkg and start up CVM with the cfscluster
command; this creates SG-CFS-pkg, and also starts it.
This example, for the cluster file system, uses a timeout of 900
seconds; if your CFS cluster has many disk groups and/or disk LUNs
visible to the cluster nodes, you may need to a longer timeout value.
Use the -s option to start the CVM package in shared mode:
cfscluster config -t 900 -s
5. Verify the system multi-node package is running and CVM is up,
using the cmviewcl or cfscluster command. Following is an
example of using the cfscluster command. In the last line, you can
see that CVM is up, and that the mount point is not yet configured:
cfscluster status
Node : ftsys9
Cluster Manager : up
CVM state : up (MASTER)
MOUNT POINT TYPE SHARED VOLUME DISK GROUP STATUS
Node : ftsys10
Cluster Manager : up
CVM state : up
MOUNT POINT TYPE SHARED VOLUME DISK GROUP STATUS
NOTE Because the CVM system multi-node package automatically starts up
the Veritas processes, do not edit these files:
/etc/llthosts
/etc/llttab
/etc/gabtab
