3. Create a package control script.
# cmmakepkg -s pkgname.cntl
Customize the control script as appropriate to your application using the guidelines in the
Managing Serviceguard user’s guide. Standard Serviceguard package customizations include
modifying the VG, LV, FS, IP, SUBNET, SERVICE_NAME, SERVICE_CMD, and
SERVICE_RESTART parameters. Set LV_UMOUNT_COUNT to 1 or greater.
NOTE: Some of the control script variables, such as VG and LV, on the target disk site must
be the same as on the source disk site. Some of the control script variables, such as, FS,
SERVICE_NAME, SERVICE_CMD and SERVICE_RESTART are probably the same as on the
source disk site. Some of the control script variables, such as IP and SUBNET, on the target
disk site are probably different from those on the source disk site. Ensure that you review all
the variables accordingly.
4. Add customer-defined run and halt commands in the appropriate places according to the
needs of the application. Refer to the latest version of the Managing Serviceguard manual
available at http://www.hp.com/go/hpux-serviceguard-docs —> HP Serviceguard for more
detailed information on these functions.
5. Copy the environment file template /opt/cmcluster/toolkit/SGCA/ xpca.env to the
package directory, naming it pkgname_xpca.
# cp /opt/cmcluster/toolkit/SGCA/xpca.env \
/etc/cmcluster/pkgname/pkgname_xpca.env
6. Edit the environment file <pkgname>_xpca.env as follows:
a. If necessary, add the path where the Raid Manager software binaries have been installed
to the PATH environment variable. If the software is in the usual location, /usr/bin, you
can just uncomment the line in the script.
b. Uncomment the behavioral configuration environment variables starting with AUTO. HP
recommends that you retain the default values of these variables unless you have a specific
business requirement to change them. See “Package attributes” (page 88) for explanation
of these variables.
c. Uncomment the PKGDIR variable and set it to the full path name of the directory where
the control script has been placed. This directory, which is used for status data files, must
be unique for every package. For Example, set PKGDIR to/etc/cmcluster/package_name,
removing any quotes around the file names.
d. Uncomment the DEVICE_GROUP variable and set it to this package’s Raid Manager
device group name, as specified in the Raid Manager configuration file.
e. Uncomment the HORCMPERM variable and use the default value MGRNOINST if Raid
Manager protection facility is not used or disabled. If Raid Manager protection facility
is enabled set it to the name of the HORCM permission file.
f. Uncomment the HORCMINST variable and set it to the Raid Manager instance name
used by Metrocluster/Continuous Access.
g. Uncomment the FENCE variable and set it to either ASYNC, NEVER, or DATA according
to your business requirements or special Metrocluster requirements. This variable is used
to compare with the actual fence level returned by the array.
h. If using asynchronous data replication, set the HORCTIMEOUT variable to a value greater
than the side file timeout value configured with the Service Processor (SVP), but less than
the RUN_SCRIPT_TIMEOUT set in the package configuration file. The default setting is
the side file timeout value + 60 seconds.
i. Uncomment the CLUSTER_TYPE variable and set it to continental.
7. Distribute Metrocluster/Continuous Access configuration, environment and control script files
to other nodes in the cluster by using ftp, rcp or scp:
# rcp -p /etc/cmcluster/pkgname/* \
other_node:/etc/cmcluster/pkgname
See the example script Samples/ftpit to see how to semi-automate the copy using ftp.
