Maximum number of nodes
A maximum of 16 nodes are supported in a Serviceguard Storage Management Suite CFS configuration.
Single network option
The Veritas Storage Foundation™ 5.1 SP1 Cluster File System Administrator's Guide refers to the option for a single network during installation. This is not relevant in a Serviceguard Storage Management installation. SG SMS creates GAB/LLT configurations on the same networks that have Serviceguard heart beats.
Configuring low priority a link
The Veritas Storage Foundation™ 5.1 SP1 Cluster File System Administrator's Guide discusses configuring a low priority link. This is not relevant and should not be done in a Serviceguard Storage Management Suite environment.
Split-brain and jeopardy handling
The Veritas Storage Foundation™ 5.1 SP1 Cluster File System Administrator's Guide requires I/O Fencing and
Coordination point server
The Coordination Point Server is mentioned in several places in the Veritas Storage Foundation™
5.1SP1 Cluster File System Administrator's Guide, but it is not used in a Serviceguard Storage Management Suite environment, where Serviceguard performs these functions.
Administering SFCFS global clusters
The Administering SFCFS global clusters section in the Veritas Storage Foundation™ 5.1 SP1 Cluster File System Administrator's Guide discusses setting up a disaster recovery “fire drill”. This fire drill procedure is not supported in a Serviceguard Storage Management Suite environment. See Designing Disaster Recovery Clusters using Metroclusters and Continentalclusters, April 2011 (p/n
Clustered network file system (NFS)
Chapter 5 in the Veritas Storage Foundation™ 5.1 SP1 Cluster File System Administrator's Guide discusses using Clustered NFS, but it is not specific to a Serviceguard Storage Management Suite environment. For information on Clustered NFS in a Serviceguard Storage Management Suite environment, see Serviceguard NFS Toolkit Support for Cluster File System available at:
Common internet file system (CIFS) support
Chapter 6 in the Veritas Storage Foundation™ 5.1 SP1 Cluster File System Administrator's Guide discusses the Common Internet File System (CIFS), but it is not relevant in a Serviceguard Storage Management Suite environment. For information on CIFS in a Serviceguard Storage Management Suite environment, see HP CIFS Server Administrator's Guide, April 2011 (p/n
