Managing the Cluster and Nodes
Chapter 7 243
The -v option produces the most informative output. The following starts
all nodes configured in the cluster without a connectivity check:
cmruncl -v
The -w option causes cmruncl to perform a full check of LAN
connectivity among all the nodes of the cluster. Omitting this option will
allow the cluster to start more quickly but will not test connectivity. The
following starts all nodes configured in the cluster with a connectivity
check:
cmruncl -v -w
The -n option specifies a particular group of nodes. Without this option,
all nodes will be started. The following example starts up the locally
configured cluster only on ftsys9 and ftsys10. (This form of the
command should only be used when you are sure that the cluster is not
already running on any node.)
cmruncl -v -n ftsys9 -n ftsys10
CAUTION HP Serviceguard cannot guarantee data integrity if you try to start a
cluster with the cmruncl -n command while a subset of the cluster's
nodes are already running a cluster. If the network connection is down
between nodes, using cmruncl -n might result in a second cluster
forming, and this second cluster might start up the same applications
that are already running on the other cluster. The result could be two
applications overwriting each other's data on the disks.
