4.6.9 Creating a service.ini File
Services that are not assigned to the common role need a corresponding service.ini file that
defines its configuration needs to the cluster_config utility. The service.ini files for all
services are located in the /opt/hptc/config/etc/services directory.
The file name is based on the name of the service; for example, the cmf.ini and supermond.ini
files are the .ini files for the cmf and supermond services, respectively. Services assigned to
the common role and services for which no corresponding .ini file can be found are configured
according to the default.ini file.
Evaluate any new service regarding whether or not you need to create a service-specific
service.ini file with the appropriate parameters.
The default.ini file is available and may be suitable for new services. Review its contents to
make sure it is compatible with your new service before allowing the cluster_config utility
to use it as the default for your new service.
Example 4-2 shows the contents of the service.ini file.
