HP Serviceguard Toolkit for NFS on Linux User Guide Version A.12.00.00

4 Using HP Serviceguard toolkit for NFS
After installing the HP Serviceguard Toolkit for NFS on Linux, you can use this toolkit to:
• Deploy NFS as a toolkit package in a Serviceguard environment on Linux.
• Manage the NFS toolkit packages.
Deploying NFS toolkit packages
You can deploy NFS toolkit packages by using only modular style of packaging.
Configuring a modular NFS package
To configure a NFS package using the modular style of packaging:
1. Create a directory for the package on all the cluster nodes using the following command:
# mkdir $SGCONF/NFS
2. cd to the package directory.
3. Create a configuration file, nfs.conf using the following command:
# cmmakepkg -m tkit/nfs/nfs nfs.conf
For Metrocluster, use sg/all module along with DTS/DRS and NFS modules while creating
the package configuration file.
4. Edit the following attributes manually in the package configuration file. Table 3 (page 11)
lists all the attributes that you can manually edit in the package configuration file
