For Continuous Access Journal mode package, journal

 

volumes in PVOL might contain a significant amount of

 

journal data to be transferred to SVOL. Also, the package

 

startup time might increase significantly when the package

 

fails over and waits for all of the journal data to be flushed.

 

The HORCTIMEOUT must be set long enough to

 

accommodate the outstanding data transfer from PVOL to

 

SVOL.

MULTIPLE_PVOL_OR_SVOL_FRAME_FOR_PKG

(Default = 0)

 

This parameter must be set to 1 if a PVOL or an SVOL for

 

this package resides on more than P9000 and XP frames.

 

Currently, only a value of 0 is supported for this parameter.

 

NOTE: Future releases might allow a value of 1.

 

Values:

 

0—(Default) Single frame.

 

1—Multiple frames. If this parameter is set to 1, then the

 

device group must be created with the “data” fence level,

 

and the FENCE parameter must be set to “data” in this

 

script.

DTS PKG DIR

If the package is a legacy package, then this variable

 

contains the full path name of the package directory. If the

 

package is a modular package, then this variable contains

 

the full path name of the directory where the Metrocluster

 

xpca environment file is located.

WAITTIME

Seconds to wait for every “pairevtwait” interval. (Note: do

 

not set this to less then 300 seconds because the disks have

 

some long final processing when the copy state reaches

 

100%).

The following list the monitor specific variables that have been modified or added for Metrocluster with Continuous Access for P9000 and XP. If a monitor variable is not defined (commented out), the default value is used:

MON_POLL_INTERVAL

(Default = 10 minutes)

 

This parameter defines the polling interval for the monitor

 

service (if configured). If the parameter is not defined

 

(commented out), the default value is 10 minutes. Otherwise,

 

the value set to the desired polling interval in minutes.

MON_NOTIFICATION_FREQUENCY

(Default = 0)

 

This parameter controls the frequency of notification

 

messages sent when the state of the device group remains

 

the same. If the value is set to 0, then the monitor will only

 

send notifications when the device group state changes. If

 

the value is set to n where n is greater than 0, the monitor

 

will send a notification every nth polling interval or when

 

the device group state has changed. If the parameter is not

 

defined (commented out), the default value is 0.

MON_NOTIFICATION_EMAIL

(Default = empty string)

 

This parameter defines the email addresses that the monitor

 

will use to send email notifications. The variable must use

 

fully qualified email addresses. If multiple email addresses

 

are defined, the comma must be used as a separator. If the

 

parameter is not defined (commented out) or the default
