Custom Scripts
The Scripts tab lets you configure custom Recovery, Start, and Stop scripts
for a device monitor.
Device monitors can optionally be configured with scripts that are run at
various points during cluster operation. The script types are as follows:
Recovery script. Runs after a monitor probe failure is detected, in an
attempt to restore the device.
Start script. Runs as a device is becoming active on a server.
Stop script. Runs as a device is becoming inactive on a server.
When a monitor is instantiated for a device (because the ClusterPulse
process is starting or the configuration has changed), HP Clustered File
System chooses the best server to make the device active. The Start script
is run on this server. The Stop script is run on all other servers configured
for the monitor to ensure that the device is not active on those servers.
Start scripts must be robust enough to run when the device is already
started, without considering this to be an error. Similarly, Stop scripts
