• The remaining stanzas, which follow the [roles_to_services] designator, each specify a role

Understanding the .ini File for a Service
Services that are not assigned to the common role need a corresponding .ini file that defines its configuration
needs to the cluster_config utility. The file name is based on the name of the service; for example, the
cmf.ini and supermond.ini files are the .ini files for the cmf and supermond services, respectively.
Services assigned to the common role and services for which no corresponding .ini file can be found are
configured according to the default.ini file.
The service.ini files reside in the /opt/hptc/config/etc/services directory.
The format of the body of the service.ini file is as follows:
[Config]
service_recommended = value
optimal_scale_out = value
head_node_required = value
head_node_desired = value
external_connection_required = value
