Using Serviceguard Manager to Configure a Package
You can create a legacy package and its control script in Serviceguard
Manager; use the Help for detailed instructions.
Using Serviceguard Commands to Configure a Package
Use the following procedure to create a legacy package.
Step 1. Create a subdirectory for each package you are configuring in the
$SGCONF directory:
mkdir $SGCONF/pkg1
You can use any directory names you like. (See “Understanding the
Location of Serviceguard Files” on page 142 for the name of Serviceguard
directories on your version of Linux.)
Step 2. Generate a package configuration file for each package, for example:
cmmakepkg -p $SGCONF/pkg1/pkg1.config
You can use any file name you like for the configuration file.
Step 3. Edit each configuration file to specify package name, prioritized list of
nodes (with 39 bytes or less in the name), the location of the control
script, and failover parameters for each package. Include the data you
recorded on the Package Configuration Worksheet.
