RAID Manager command reference 117
horctakeover
Take ownership of a pair CA only
Description The horctakeover meta command (contains many sub-commands) is used
in conjunction with HA software, such as MC/Service Guard and CA. It
selects and executes one of four actions, depending on the state of the
paired volumes: nop-takeover, swap-takeover, SVOL-takeover, or
PVOL-takeover.
See “Takeover-switch function” on page 350 for actions taken by
horctakeover.
The table under the heading “HA control script state transitions” on
page 330 lists state transitions resulting from the execution of
horctakeover in HA control scripts.
Note Executing horctakeover in a cascaded CA environment will cause an
automatic suspend of the downstream CA Journal.
