| CFS enables multiple hosts to mount and perform file operations concurrently on the |
| same storage device. To operate in a cluster configuration, CFS requires the integrated |
| set of Veritas ™ products by Symantec that are included in the HP Serviceguard Storage |
| Management Suite. |
| CFS includes Low Latency Transport (LLT) and Group Membership Atomic Broadcast |
| (GAB) packages. The LLT package provides |
| network communications. The GAB package provides cluster state, configuration, and |
| membership services. It also monitors the heartbeat links between systems to ensure |
| that they are active. |
| There are other packages provided by HP Serviceguard that provide application failover |
| support when you install CFS as part of a high availability solution. |
| CFS also requires the cluster volume manager (CVM) component of the Veritas™ |
| Volume Manager (VxVM) to create the shared volumes necessary for mounting cluster |
| file systems. |
|
|
NOTE | To install and administer CFS, you should have a working knowledge of cluster file |
| systems. To install and administer application failover functionality, you should have a |
| working knowledge of HP Serviceguard. For more information on these products, refer to |
| the HP Serviceguard documentation and the Veritas™ Volume Manager (VxVM) |
| documentation available in the /usr/share/doc/vxvm directory after you install CFS. |
