Configuring Packages and Their Services
Chapter 6 179
6 Configuring Packages and Their
Services
In addition to configuring the cluster, you need to identify the
applications and services that you wish to group into packages. This
chapter describes the following package configuration tasks:
• Creating the Package Configuration
• Writing the Package Control Script
• Verifying the Package Configuration
• Applying and Distributing the Configuration
• Creating a Disk Monitor Configuration
Each of these tasks is described in a separate section below.
In configuring your own packages, use data from the Package
Configuration Worksheet described in the “Planning” chapter. Package
configuration data from the worksheet becomes part of the binary cluster
configuration file on all nodes in the cluster. The control script data from
the worksheet goes into an executable package control script which runs
specific applications and monitors their operation.
