The wizard names the package name “csync” for conﬁguration

synchronization. This speciﬁc package name is required. The LVM

storage conﬁguration and network conﬁguration for the package must be

set up before continuing or before running the wizard. All the cluster

members should also be up and available. For details, refer to the

Managing Serviceguard book, under “Building an HA Cluster

Conﬁguration”, “Creating a Storage Infrastructure with LVM.”

NOTE The wizard only supports creating packages based on LVM volume

groups. When using CFS or VxVM, manual conﬁguration is required. See

the section on manually conﬁguring a Serviceguard cluster for details on

manually conﬁguring the csync package.

The wizard prompts for the following, all of which should have already

been conﬁgured:

• LVM volume group name (for example, vgcsync)

• Logical volume in the volume group (for example,

/dev/vgcsync/lvol1)

• The mount point of the ﬁlesystem (for example, /csync)

• The mount options of the ﬁlesystem (for example, -o

rw,largefiles). The mount options are used verbatim in the

Service package control script’s FS_MOUNT_OPT[0] ﬁeld. Note that

the mount options must agree with the ﬁlesystem you created on the

logical volume. For example, if the ﬁlesystem was created with

largeﬁles support, the largeﬁles mount option should be speciﬁed.

• The ﬁlesystem type (for example, VxFS)
