Serviceguard for Linux Version A.11.16 Release Notes
Known Problems and Workarounds
Chapter 160
JAGae29576: cmviewcl takes 15 seconds to report
cluster status
• What is the problem? cmviewcl may take up to 15 seconds to report
the cluster status if a cluster node is unreachable.
• What is the workaround? The command will complete successfully.
JAGaf09394: Embedded quotes in Service Command
not carried into pkg ctrl script.
• What is the problem? Customers won't be able to use quotes in SDF
data. In SDF, if you set:
service ourXclock {
command = /usr/bin/X11/xclock -title "$(hostname)"
-display 15.244.59.204:0.0 restartsAllowed = 1 }
The control script strips out the quotes surrounding $hostname.
• What is the workaround? The workaround is to use "\" to skip the
quotes. So you can write the same service command as:
/usr/bin/X11/xclock -title \"$(hostname)\" -display
JAGaf14481: Server provider error when a
non-existing id is passed to execMethod
• What is the problem? This problem happens with a error message
from COM node saying that the ID of the package client asked for is
BAD. The problem described here is a very corner situation, this
happens when multiple SGMGR operations are being done on the
same cluster, for example removing a package at the same time by
different users of SGMGR. It is a corner case.
• What is the workaround? To avoid this problem, customers should
not try to execute multiple operations simultaneously on a package
or a cluster, especially operations related to removing the
configuration of package or cluster.
