Building Disaster Recovery Serviceguard Solutions Using Metrocluster with 3PAR Remote Copy

NOTE: Skip Step 5 if CFS is not required and SG SMS CVM will be used as raw volumes.
6. Create a package configuration file.
# cmmakepkg -m sg/cfs_all /etc/cmcluster/cfspkg1.ascii
7. Edit the following package parameters in the cfspkg1.ascii package configuration file:
node_name <node1>
node_name <node2>
package_name <siteA_cfs_pkg_name>
cvm_disk_group <cvm_dg_name>
cvm_activation_mode "node1=sw node2=sw"
cfs_mount_point <cvm_mount_point>
cfs_volume <cvm_dg_name>/<cvm_dg_vol_name>
cfs_mount_options "node1=cluster node2=cluster"
cfs_primary_policy ""
where node1 and node2 are the nodes at the primary sub-cluster.
Do not configure any mount specific attributes like cfs_mount_point,
cfs_mount_options if SG SMS CVM is configured as raw volumes.
8. Check the package configuration file.
# cmcheckconf -P cfspkg1.ascii
9. Apply the package configuration file.
# cmapplyconf -P cfspkg1.ascii
10. Run the package.
# cmrunpkg <siteA_cfs_pkg_name>
Configuring the storage device using VERITAS CVM
To set up the CVM disk group volumes, do the following on the CVM cluster master node in the
Source Disk Site :
1. Initialize the source disks of the replication pair.
# /etc/vx/bin/vxdisksetup -i <replicated_disk_1>
# /etc/vx/bin/vxdisksetup -i <replicated_disk_2>
2. Create a disk group for the complex workload data.
# vxdg –s init <cvm_dg_name> <replicated_disk_1> <replicated_disk_2>
3. Activate the CVM disk group on all the nodes in the Source Disk Site CVM sub-cluster.
# vxdg -g <cvm_dg_name> set activation=sw
4. Create a volume from the disk group:
# vxassist -g <cvm_dg_name> make <cvm_dg_vol_name> XXXX
where XXXX is the size of the volume.
5. Create Serviceguard Disk Group modular MNP packages for the disk group.
IMPORTANT: VERITAS CVM disk groups must be configured in a dedicated multi-node package
using the cvm_dg attribute. This multi-node package must be configured to have a package
dependency on the SG-CFS-pkg system multi-node package.
Metrocluster SADTA does not support configuring Legacy style packages for managing VERITAS
CVM disk groups.
To create a package for a CVM disk group:
