ln –s /var/opt/sendmail/mqueue /var/spool/mqueue

NOTE: Ensure that the /var/opt/sendmail/mqueue directory retains the

same permission as the /var/spool/mqueue.PREV directory.

The following sections address the configuration settings for various Sendmail setups:

• “Setup with MSP Enabled” (page 14)

• “HP ServiceGuard Setup for Other Databases” (page 14)

• “HP ServiceGuard Setup for LDAP-Enabled Sendmail” (page 15)

• “HP ServiceGuard Setup for STARTTLS-Enabled Sendmail” (page 15)

Setup with MSP Enabled

If you have enabled the Mail Submission Program (MSP) feature in Sendmail, ensure

that the /etc/mail/submit.cf file on all the nodes are symbolically linked to the

/var/opt/sendmail/mail/submit.cf file on the shared volume.

If MSP is enabled in Sendmail in an HP ServiceGuard environment, complete the

following steps:

1. To create the /var/opt/sendmail/clientmqueue directory for the client mail

queue, enter the following command:

mkdir –p /var/opt/sendmail/clientmqueue

This directory must contain the permission of the /var/spool/clientmqueue

directory as follows:

drwxrwx--- smmsp smmsp ... /var/spool/clientmqueue

2. To move the existing /var/spool/clientmqueue directory to the

/var/spool/clientmqueue.PREV directory, enter the following command:

mv /var/spool/clientmqueue /var/spool/clientmqueue.PREV

3. To create a symbolic link from the /var/opt/sendmail/clientmqueue

directory to the /var/opt/sendmail/clientmqueue directory, enter the

following command:

ln –s /var/opt/sendmail/clientmqueue /var/spool/clientmqueue

HP ServiceGuard Setup for Other Databases

If you use other databases such as genericstable, virtusertable, domaintable, and

mailertable, ensure that the files of these databases are also in the shared volume and

common across all the nodes in the cluster.
