Managing HP Serviceguard for Linux, Tenth Edition, September 2012
Enter the QS_HOST (IPv4 or IPv6 on SLES 10 and 11; IPv4 only on Red Hat 5), optional
QS_ADDR (IPv4 or IPv6 on SLES 10 and 11; IPv4 only on Red Hat 5),
QS_POLLING_INTERVAL, and optionally a QS_TIMEOUT_EXTENSION; and also check
the HOSTNAME_ADDRESS_FAMILY setting, which defaults to IPv4. See the parameter
descriptions under Cluster Configuration Parameters (page 103).
For important information, see also “About Hostname Address Families: IPv4-Only,
IPv6-Only, and Mixed Mode” (page 100); and “What Happens when You Change the
Quorum Configuration Online” (page 43)
Obtaining Cross-Subnet Information
As of Serviceguard A.11.18 it is possible to configure multiple IPv4 subnets, joined by
a router, both for the cluster heartbeat and for data, with some nodes using one subnet
and some another. See “Cross-Subnet Configurations” (page 27) for rules and definitions.
You must use the -w full option to cmquerycl to discover the available subnets.
For example, assume that you are planning to configure four nodes, NodeA, NodeB,
NodeC, and NodeD, into a cluster that uses the subnets 15.13.164.0, 15.13.172.0,
15.13.165.0, 15.13.182.0, 15.244.65.0, and 15.244.56.0.
The following command
cmquerycl –w full –n nodeA –n nodeB –n nodeB –n nodeC –n nodeD
will produce the output such as the following:
Node Names: nodeA
nodeB
nodeC
nodeD
Bridged networks (full probing performed):
1 lan3 (nodeA)
lan4 (nodeA)
lan3 (nodeB)
lan4 (nodeB)
2 lan1 (nodeA)
lan1 (nodeB)
3 lan2 (nodeA)
lan2 (nodeB)
4 lan3 (nodeC)
lan4 (nodeC)
lan3 (nodeD)
lan4 (nodeD)
5 lan1 (nodeC)
lan1 (nodeD)
6 lan2 (nodeC)
lan2 (nodeD)
