Additional startup scripts may be included in the configuration using the start_script command. The files in the start_script command will be placed in a location for tftp transfer to sibling switches that initialize using the –uoption. A common use of the start_script command might be to propagate gated configurations to all members of the Surviving Partner group. Absolute path names must be used. Using multiple commands allows inclusion of multiple scripts. For example:

start_script: /etc/rcZ.d/S75gated;

start_script: /etc/rcZ.d/S80static_routes;

The vrrpd_script command allows a user defined script to be run when vrrpd changes state. This script is called at the end of the zspconfig created vrrpd.script. See vrrpd –sfor a description of when the scripts are called. zspconfig sets up vrrpd to call vrrpd.script. The vrrpd_script command in zspconfig places a call to the user-defined script at the end of vrrpd.script file. The following example would call the my_vrrpd_script each time vrrpd calls its –sprovided script:

vrrpd_script: /etc/rcZ.d/surviving_partner/my_vrrpd_script;

NOTE: The my_vrrpd_script is not called from a different process thread. Therefore if my_vrrpd_script crashes or has long delays, it will crash the vrrpd, or cause delays in the Surviving Partner failover. To protect against this, write the script to launch a second script in a background shell. The advantage to calling the user provided script in the same process thread is that it gives synchronized control over the failover process for those who want it.

OUTPUT FILES

The output of zspconfig is a set of configuration and script files. The configuration files configure vrrpd and zlmd daemons. The vrrpd and zlmd daemons combined with the script files run the Surviving Partner. This is a list of all configuration and script files:

/etc/rcZ.d/S70Surviving_partner

The main startup script that starts the Surviving Partner by running zconfig, ifconfig, zlmd and vrrpd. zspconfig prompts the user to run this script. This file can be saved with zsync to automatically start the Surviving Partner at switch boot.

/etc/rcZ.d/surviving_partner/vrrpd.conf

Configuration script for the VRRP daemon. This configuration is used when the S70Surviving_partner script launches vrrpd. There is a line in this file for each router address vrrpd will manage. Or stated another way, each virtual_address command in the zspconfig configuration file results in a line in vrrpd.conf.

/tftpboot/zsp.conf<n>

zspconfig configuration file that contains the configuration of the sibling backup switches. The <n> is used to
