DC2_HOST_LIST | A list of the clustered nodes that reside in Data Center 2. |

QUERY_TIME_OUT(Default 120 | Sets the time in seconds to wait for a response from the |
seconds) | |
| minimum recommended value is 20 seconds. If the value is |

Package Attributes for Continentalcluster with EMC SRDF
This appendix lists all Serviceguard package attributes that have been modified or added for Metrocluster with EMC SRDF. HP recommends that you use the default settings for most of these variables, so exercise caution when modifying them:
AUTOR1RWSUSP | Default: 0 |
| This variable is used to indicate whether a package must be |
| automatically started when it fails over from an R1 host to another R1 |
| host and the device group is in suspended state. If it sets to 0, the |
| package will halt unless ${PKGDIR}/FORCEFLAG file has been |
| created. The package halts because it is not known what has caused |
| this condition. This caused by an operational error or a Symmetrix |
| internal event, such as primary memory full. If in this situation you want |
| to automatically start the package, AUTOR1RWSUSP must be set to |
| 1. |
AUTOR1RWNL | Default: 0 |
| This variable indicates that when the package is being started on an |
| R1 host, the Symmetrix is in a Read/Write state, and the SRDF links |
| are down, the package automatically started. Although the script |
| cannot verify the state of the Symmetrix on the R2 side to validate |
| conditions, the Symmetrix on the R1 side is in a ‘normal’ state. To |
| require operator intervention before starting the package under these |
| conditions, set AUTOR1RWNL=1 and create the file |
| /etc/cmcluster/package_name/FORCEFLAG. |
AUTOR1UIP | Default: 1 |
| This variable indicates that when the package is being started on an |
| R1 host and the Symmetrix is being synchronized from the Symmetrix |
| on the R2 side, the package will halt unless the operator creates the |
| $PKGDIR/FORCEFLAG file. The package halts because performance |
| degradation of the application will occur while the resynchronization |
| is in progress. More importantly, it is better to wait for the |
| resynchronization to finish to guarantee that the data are consistent |
| even in the case of a rolling disaster where a second failure occurs |
| before the first failure is recovered from. To always automatically start |
| the package even when resynchronization is in progress, set |
| AUTOR1UIP=0. Doing so will result in inconsistent data in case of a |
| rolling disaster. |
AUTOR2WDNL | Default: 1 |
| AUTOR2WDNL=1 indicates that when the package is being started |
| on an R2 host, the Symmetrix is in a |
| SRDF links are down, the package will not be started. Since we cannot |
| verify the state of the Symmetrix on the R1 side to validate conditions, |
