3.7.0 HP StorageWorks HP Scalable NAS File Serving Software administration guide - HP Scalable NAS 3.7 for Linux (AG513-96002, October 2009)

To use the location feature, you will need to configure the appropriate rack location
for the nodes in the cluster. On each node, edit the /etc/opt/hpcfs/perfmon/
gmond_host.conf file.
/* The host section describes attributes of the host, like the location */
host {
location = "unspecified"
}
Replace unspecified with the location of the node. There are three parameters:
• Rack number. This is the number of the rack where the node is mounted.
• Rank number. This is the position of the node in the rack. Numbering starts from
the bottom of the rack.
• Plane number. This parameter is unused and is always zero.
The parameters are separated by commas. In the example shown above, the node
in rack 1, rank 1 is specified as follows in the gmond_host.conf file on that node:
/* The host section describes attributes of the host, like the location */
host {
location = "1,1,0"
}
