On the Client Side
The client should NFS-mount a file system using the package name in the mount command. The package name is associated with the package’s relocatable IP address. On client systems, be sure to use a hard mount and set the proper retry values for the mount. Alternatively, set the proper timeout for automounter. The timeout should be greater than the total end-to-end recovery time for the MC/ServiceGuard NFS package—that is, running fsck, mounting file systems, and exporting file systems on the new node. (With journalled file systems, this time should be between one and two minutes.) Setting the timeout to a value greater than the recovery time allows clients to reconnect to the file system after it returns to the cluster on the new node.
