Managing Serviceguard Sixteenth Edition, March 2009

IMPORTANT: If you plan to use a Quorum Server, make sure you read the HP

Serviceguard Quorum Server Version A.04.00 Release Notes before you proceed. You can

find them at: http://www.docs.hp.com -> High Availability -> Quorum

Server. You should also consult the Quorum Server white papers at the same location.

Quorum Server Worksheet

You may find it useful to use a Quorum Server worksheet, as in the example that

follows, to identify a quorum server for use with one or more clusters. You may also

want to enter quorum server host and timing parameters on the Cluster Configuration

Worksheet. Blank worksheets are in Blank Planning Worksheets (page 419).

You can use the Quorum Server worksheet to record the following:

Quorum Server Host

The host name (and alternate address, if any) for the

quorum server.

IP Address

The IP address(es) by which the quorum server will

be connected to the cluster.

Supported Node Names

The name (39 characters or fewer) of each cluster node

that will be supported by this quorum server. These

entries will be entered into qs_authfile on the

system that is running the quorum server process.
