4.0.0 HP PolyServe Software for Windows File Serving administration guide (T5392-96047, March 2010)
Script Pathnames: The Virtual File Share monitor can optionally be configured with
the following types of scripts:
Recovery script. Runs after a monitor probe failure is detected, in an attempt to restore
access to the Virtual File Share.
Start script. Runs as the Virtual File Share is becoming active on a server.
Stop script. Runs as the Virtual File Share is becoming inactive on a server.
When a monitor is instantiated, the ClusterPulse process chooses the best node to
make the service active. The Start script is run on this node. On all other nodes
configured for the monitor, the Stop script is run to ensure that the service is not active.
Start scripts must be robust enough to run when the service is already started, without
considering this to be an error. Similarly, Stop scripts must be robust enough to run
when the service is already stopped, without considering this to be an error. In both
of these cases, the script should exit with a zero exit status.
This behavior is necessary because the Start and Stop scripts are run to establish the
desired start/stop activity, even though the service may actually have been started
by something other than HP PolyServe Software. The Start and Stop scripts must also
handle recovery from events that may cause them to run unsuccessfully.
