that this disk meets your power wiring requirements. If necessary, choose a disk
powered by a circuit which powers fewer than half the nodes in the cluster.
To display the failover times of disks, use the cmquerycl command, specifying all the
nodes in the cluster. The output of the command lists the disks connected to each node
together with the re-formation time associated with each.
Do not include the node’s entire domain name; for example, specify ftsys9, not
ftsys9.cup.hp.com:
cmquerycl -v -n ftsys9 -n ftsys10
cmquerycl will not print out the re-formation time for a volume group that currently
belongs to a cluster. If you want cmquerycl to print the re-formation time for a volume
group, run vgchange -c n <vg name> to clear the cluster ID from the volume
group. After you are done, do not forget to run vgchange -c y vgname to rewrite
the cluster ID back to the volume group; for example:
vgchange -c y /dev/vglock
NOTE: You should not configure a second lock volume group or physical volume
unless your configuration specifically requires it. See “Dual Lock Disk” (page 64).
If your configuration requires you to configure a second cluster lock, enter the following
parameters in the cluster configuration file:
SECOND_CLUSTER_LOCK_VG /dev/volume-group
SECOND_CLUSTER_LOCK_PV /dev/dsk/block-special-file
where volume-group is the name of the second volume group and
block-special-file is the physical volume name of a lock disk in the chosen
volume group. These lines should be added for each node; for example:
SECOND_CLUSTER_LOCK_VG /dev/vglock
SECOND_CLUSTER_LOCK_PV /dev/dsk/c4t0d0
or (using agile addressing; see “About Device File Names (Device Special Files)”
(page 107)):
SECOND_CLUSTER_LOCK_VG /dev/vglock
SECOND_CLUSTER_LOCK_PV /dev/disk/disk100
See also “Choosing Cluster Lock Disks” (page 202).
Specifying a Lock LUN
A cluster lock disk, lock LUN, or quorum server, is required for two-node clusters. The
lock must be accessible to all nodes and must be powered separately from the nodes.
See also “Cluster Lock ” (page 62); and see “Setting Up a Lock LUN” (page 202) for
configuration information and restrictions.
To specify a lock LUN in the cluster configuration file, enter the lock LUN information
following each node name, for example:
