To change the monitoring definitions:
1.Edit the Continentalclusters configuration file to incorporate the new or changed monitoring definitions.
2.Halt the monitor packages on both clusters.
3.Use the cmapplyconcl command to apply the new configuration.
4.Restart the monitor packages on both clusters.

Behavior of Serviceguard commands in Continentalclusters
Continentalclusters packages are manipulated manually by the user via Serviceguard commands and by cmcld automatically in the same way as any other packages.
In Continentalclusters the recovery package is not allowed to run at the same time as the primary, data sender, or data receiver packages. To enforce this, several Serviceguard commands behave in a slightly different manner when used in Continentalclusters.
Table 1 describes the Serviceguard commands whose behavior is different in Continentalclusters environment. Specifically, when one of the commands listed in Table 1 attempts to start or enable switching of a package, it first verifies the status of the other packages in the recovery group.
Based on the status, the operation is either allowed or disallowed.
