Configuring HMP for Transparent Local Failover Support - Using
the clic_init command
You can configure the Transparent Local Failover feature of HMP using clic_init also.
Let us consider the following example where we have discussed the configuration in
detail. This example uses some “dummy” (that is, not valid) addresses to the components
in Figure 4-10. The dummy addresses are used only to show the flow of the information
provided as input to the clic_init command and SMH. Do not try to use these addresses in
your configuration.
Figure 4-10 Configuring the Transparent Local Failover feature
Using the configuration information in Figure 4-10, the information you would specify
when you run clic_init on each of the nodes is listed below. This example is not an exact
depiction of the prompts produced by clic_init, but merely an example of the flow of
information input. In addition, you should not try to use the dummy addresses in your
actual configuration.
On node A:
1. How many HyperFabric adapters are installed on the node?
2. Do you want this node to interoperate with nodes running any HyperFabric versions
earlier than B.11.00.11 or B.11.11.01? (n)
