12.Using standard Serviceguard commands (cmruncl, cmhaltcl, cmrunpkg, cmhaltpkg), test the source disk site for cluster and package startup and package failover.
13.Any running package on the source disk site that will have a counterpart on the target disk site must be halted at this time.
Setting up a Recovery Package on the Recovery Cluster
Use the procedures in this section to configure a recovery package on the target disk site. Consult the Serviceguard documentation for more detailed instructions on setting up Serviceguard with packages, and for instructions on how to start, halt, and move packages and their services between nodes in a cluster.
NOTE: Neither the source disk site nor the target disk site may configure an P9000 or XP series paired volume, PVOL or SVOL, as a cluster lock disk. A cluster lock disk must always be writable. Since it cannot be guaranteed that either half of a paired volume is always writable, they may not be used as a cluster lock disk. Using a disk as a cluster lock disk that is part of a paired volume is not a supported configuration.
1.Create and test a standard Serviceguard cluster using the procedures described in the Managing Serviceguard user’s guide.
2.Install Continentalclusters on all the cluster nodes in the target disk site (skip this step if the software has been pre installed).
NOTE: Serviceguard should already be installed on all the cluster nodes.
Run swinstall(1m)to install Continentalclusters and Metrocluster Continuous Access products from an SD depot. The toolkit integration scripts, environment file and contributed scripts will reside in the /opt/cmcluster/toolkit/SGCA and /usr/sbin directories.
3.When swinstall(1m) has completed, create a directory as follows for the new package in the target disk site.
# mkdir /etc/cmcluster/<package_name>
Create an Serviceguard package configuration file in the target disk site.
#cd /etc/cmcluster/<package_name>
#cmmakepkg
Customize it as appropriate to your application. Make sure to include the pathname of the control script (/etc/cmcluster/<package_name>/ <package_name>.cntl) for the RUN_SCRIPT and HALT_SCRIPT parameters. Set the AUTO_RUN flag to NO. This is to ensure the package will not start when the cluster starts. Do not usecmmodpkg to enable package switching on any recovery package. Enabling package switching will automatically start the recovery package. Package switching on a recovery package will be automatically set by the cmrecovercl command on the target disk site when it successfully starts the recovery package.
4.Create a package control script.
# cmmakepkg
Customize the control script as appropriate to your application using the guidelines in the Managing Serviceguard. standard Serviceguard package customizations include modifying the VG, LV, FS, IP, SUBNET, SERVICE_NAME, SERVICE_CMD and SERVICE_RESTART parameters. Be sure to set LV_UMOUNT_COUNT to 1 or greater.
