Security Solutions

When any of these pre-integrated solutions are used, the corresponding Continentalclusters specific
module must be included in the primary and recovery packages.
For example, while using Continuous Access P9000 or XP replication, the dts/ccxpca module
must be used to create the primary and recovery packages.
NOTE: If none of the above pre-integrated physical replications are used, then it is not required
to include any Continentalclusters specific module.
Configuring primary and recovery packages as modular packages when using
Continuous Access P9000 or XP
When using Continuous Access P9000 or XP replication in Continentalclusters, the primary and
recovery packages must be created using the dts/ccxpca module. To use this module, Metrocluster
with Continuous Access for P9000 and XP must be installed on all the nodes in the
Continentalclusters. If Metrocluster with Continuous Access for P9000 and XP is not installed on
all the nodes, then the following error message is displayed when cmmakepkg command is run.
The file /etc/cmcluster/modules/dts/ccxpca does not exist or read/search permission not set for a component of
the path: No such file or directory 1 number of errors found in specified module files!
Please fix the error(s) before re-running the command.
cmmakepkg: Error encountered. Unable to create template file.
When the package configuration is applied in the cluster using the cmapplyconf command, the
Metrocluster environment file is automatically generated in the package directory on all the nodes
in the cluster.
CAUTION: Do not delete the Metrocluster environment file that is generated in the package
directory. This file is crucial for the startup of the package in Continentalclusters.
To configure the primary and recovery packages as modular packages using Continuous Access
P9000 and XP with Continentalclusters:
1. Run the following command to create package configuration file:
# cmmakepkg –m dts/ccxpca temp.config
NOTE: Continentalclusters is usually used with applications such as Apache. So, the
application toolkit module must also be included when Continentalclusters is used in conjunction
with an application.
For Example, when Continentalclusters is used in conjunction with the Apache toolkit, the
Apache toolkit module and other required modules must also be included with the
Continentalcluster module. Run the following command:
# cmmakepkg –m dts/ccxpca –m sg/filesystem -m sg/package_ip -m
ecmt/apache/apache temp.config
2. Edit the following attributes in the temp.config file:
• dts/xpca/dts_pkg_dir
This is the package directory for this modular package. This value must be unique for all
packages.
For example,
dts/xpca/dts_pkg_dir <pkg_dir_name>
• DEVICE_GROUP
Specify the XPCA device group name managed by this package, as defined in the RAID
Manager configuration file.
• HORCMINST
Specify the name of the RAID manager instance that manages the XPCA device group
used by this package.
