Managing HP Serviceguard for Linux, Eighth Edition, March 2008

Configuring Packages and Their Services
Choosing Package Modules
Chapter 6 213
If a halt_script_timeout is specified, it should be greater than the sum
of all the values set for service_halt_timeout (see page 221) for this
package.
If a timeout occurs:
• Switching will be disabled.
• The current node will be disabled from running the package.
If a halt-script timeout occurs, you may need to perform manual cleanup.
See Chapter 8, “Troubleshooting Your Cluster,” on page 299.
successor_halt_timeout
Specifies how long, in seconds, Serviceguard will wait for packages that
depend on this package to halt, before halting this package. Can be 0
through 4294, or no_timeout. The default is no_timeout.
• no_timeout means that Serviceguard will wait indefinitely for the
dependent packages to halt.
• 0 means Serviceguard will not wait for the dependent packages to
halt before halting this package.
New as of A.11.18 (for both modular and legacy packages). See also
“About Package Dependencies” on page 123.
script_log_file
The full pathname of the package’s log file. The default is
$SGRUN/log/<package_name>.log. (See “Understanding the Location of
Serviceguard Files” on page 142 for more information about
Serviceguard pathnames.) See also log_level on page 214.
operation_sequence
Defines the order in which the scripts defined by the package’s
component modules will start up. See the package configuration file for
details.
This parameter is not configurable; do not change the entries in the
configuration file.
New for modular packages.
