Figure 5: Creating the Data Protector Cell Manager Service using the cluster configuration tool

Note: Add both resources groups (the shared Disk Group and the shared Data Protector Service Group) as dependencies to the IP Resource Group.

Checking the order of appearance of Data Protector resources

The order of the resources while starting the services should be as follows:

a.Virtual IP

b.Mount shared disk </FileShare>

c.DP Services

The command rg_test with noop option displays the order in which cluster resources start and stop. At this stage no operation is performed on the resources, but you can see their order of execution.

$ rg_test noop cluster.conf start service dps

Running in test mode. Starting dps...

[start] service:dps

[start] ip:10.10.1.9

[start] clusterfs:SharedDisk

[start] script:DP_services Start of dps complete

$ rg_test noop cluster.conf stop service dps

Running in test mode.
