AUTO_RUN status identifies whether a package can run on any adoptive node.
Node_Switching SWITCHING status identifies whether a package is permitted to run on a specific node.
To enable or disable switching attributes, use the cmmodpkg command. The important option s for this
command are –e (enable) and –d (disable).
Sample commands:
# cmmodpkg –e pkg1 Enable a pkg to run on any adoptive node.
# cmmodpkg –d pkg1 Disable a package from running on any node.
# cmmodpkg –n Node1 –e pkg1 Enable a particular node to run a package.
# cmmodpkg –n Node1 –d pkg1 Prevent a particular node from runing a package.
Reconfiguring a Cluster
You can reconfigure a cluster either when it is halted or while it is still running. However, on
older versions of Serviceguard, some operations can only be done when the cluster is halted.
The following is consolidated from Managing Serviceguard editions covering A.11.16-
A.11.20, however page references in the table pertain to edition 18.
