Managing HP Serviceguard for Linux, Tenth Edition, September 2012

• halted - The package is down and halted.
• failing - The package is halting because it, or a package it depends on, has
failed.
• fail_wait - The package is waiting to be halted because the package or a
package it depends on has failed, but must wait for a package it depends on to
halt before it can halt.
• failed - The package is down and failed.
• relocate_wait - The package’s halt script has completed or Serviceguard is still
trying to place the package.
• maintenance — The package is in maintenance mode; see “Maintaining a
Package: Maintenance Mode” (page 255).
• reconfiguring — The node where this package is running is adjusting the
package configuration to reflect the latest changes that have been applied.
• reconfigure_wait — The node where this package is running is waiting to
adjust the package configuration to reflect the latest changes that have been applied.
• unknown - Serviceguard could not determine the state at the time cmviewcl was
run.
The following states are possible only for multi-node packages:
• blocked - The package has never run on this node, either because a dependency
has not been met, or because auto_run is set to no.
• changing - The package is in a transient state, different from the status shown, on
some nodes. For example, a status of starting with a state of changing would
mean that the package was starting on at least one node, but in some other, transitory
condition (for example, failing) on at least one other node.
Package Switching Attributes
cmviewcl shows the following package switching information:
• AUTO_RUN: Can be enabled or disabled. For failover packages, enabled
means that the package starts when the cluster starts, and Serviceguard can switch
the package to another node in the event of failure.
For system multi-node packages, enabled means an instance of the package can
start on a new node joining the cluster (disabled means it will not).
• Switching Enabled for a Node: For failover packages, enabled means that the
package can switch to the specified node. disabled means that the package cannot
