Can be changed while the cluster is running;
must be removed if the preceding SUBNET entry
is removed.
POLLING_TARGET The IP address to which polling messages will
be sent from all network interfaces on the subnet
specified in the preceding SUBNET entry, if
IP_MONITOR is set to ON. This is called target
polling.
Each subnet can have multiple polling targets;
repeat POLLING_TARGET entries as needed.
If IP_MONITOR is set to ON, but no
POLLING_TARGET is specified, polling messages
are sent between network interfaces on the same
subnet (peer polling). HP recommends you use
target polling; see “How the IP Monitor Works”
(page 99) for more information.
NOTE: cmquerycl (1m) detects first-level
routers in the cluster (by looking for gateways
in each node's routing table) and lists them here
as polling targets. If you run cmquerycl with
the -w full option (for full network probing)
it will also verify that the gateways will work
correctly for monitoring purposes.
Can be changed while the cluster is running;
must be removed if the preceding SUBNET entry
is removed.
MAX_CONFIGURED_PACKAGES This parameter sets the maximum number of
packages that can be configured in the cluster.
The minimum value is 0, and the maximum value
is 300. The default value is 300, and you can
change it without halting the cluster.
WEIGHT_NAME,
WEIGHT_DEFAULT
Default value for this weight for all packages that
can have weight; see “Rules and Guidelines”
(page 184) under“About Package Weights”
(page 176). WEIGHT_NAME specifies a name for
a weight that exactly corresponds to a
CAPACITY_NAME specified earlier in the cluster
configuration file. (A package has weight; a node
has capacity.) The rules for forming
