HP Serviceguard Toolkit for NFS manual Cluster1 up

a Serviceguard NFS Modular Package” section of the Serviceguard NFS Toolkit A.11.11.06, A.11.23.05 and A.11.31.08 Administrator’s Guide to configure the /etc/rc.config.d/nfsconf file, start the NFS server, configure the disk hardware, and setup volume groups, logical volumes, and file systems. It is assumed that you have setup CFS as documented in the Veritas Storage Foundation Cluster File System Installation and Administration Guide, and that you have already started the Serviceguard CFS multi-node packages.

In the following example, the CFS file systems are /cfs1 and /cfs2, and they correspond to Serviceguard CFS multi-node packages SG-CFS-MP-1 and SG-CFS-MP-2. The cluster ASCII configuration file is assumed to be /etc/cmcluster/cluster.conf. The cluster name is cluster1 and there are two nodes, thyme and basil. If you run the cmviewcl command after setting up the Serviceguard CFS packages, the output is similar to the following:

# cmviewcl

CLUSTER STATUS

cluster1 up

NODE STATUS	STATE
thyme up	running
NODE STATUS	STATE
basil up	running
MULTI_NODE_PACKAGES
PACKAGE	STATUS	STATE	AUTO_RUN	SYSTEM
SG-CFS-pkg	up	running	enabled	yes
SG-CFS-DG-1	up	running	enabled	no
SG-CFS-MP-1	up	running	enabled	no
SG-CFS-MP-2	up	running	enabled	no

Create a directory on each server in the cluster to hold all the configuration files (if this directory already exists you should save the contents before continuing):

# mkdir /etc/cmcluster/nfs_modular

The rest of the configuration is dependent upon whether or not the cluster requires file locking (as described in the Issues and Limitations with the current CFS implementation section). If file locking is not required, follow the instructions in section “Serviceguard NFS Modular Package over CFS Packages without File Locking”. If file locking is required, follow the instructions in section “Serviceguard NFS Modular Package over CFS Packages with File Locking”.

7.1Serviceguard NFS Modular Package over CFS Packages without File Locking

Each active server in the cluster needs to run an export multi-node package and an NFS failover package. An export multi-node package is a package that runs on each server in the cluster and exports all the cluster file systems. Each standby server (i.e. a server that is an adoptive node for NFS failover packages) needs to have an export multi-node package running to be able to become active in the event of a failover. Figure 5 shows an example Serviceguard over CFS configuration with two servers, each with an NFS failover package and a multi-node export package.
