RDF System Management Manual for H-Series RVUs (RDF 1.8)

The PROGRAM parameter specifies the name of a Guardian object file that is executed once RDF
has reached a particular state, either after a STOP RDF, REVERSE, or TAKEOVER operation.
The INFILE parameter specifies the name of an edit file that will be passed as the IN file to the
trigger process when it is created.
The OUTFILE parameter specifies the name of a file or process that will be passed as the OUT
file to the trigger process when it is created.
The CPUS parameter specifies the number of the primary and alternate CPUs in which the trigger
process is to run.
The PRIORITY parameter specifies the priority at which the trigger process will run.
WAIT causes RDF to wait for the trigger process to terminate before shutting down. NOWAIT
specifies that once the trigger process is launched, RDF can immediately proceed to shut down.
Setting Network Configuration Record Parameters
Use SET NETWORK and ADD NETWORK commands to configure the following network
configuration record parameters:
• PRIMARYSYSTEM system-name
• BACKUPSYSTEM system-name
• REMOTECONTROLSUBVOL subvolume-name
• PNETTXVOLUME volume-name
If you are configuring the network master RDF subsystem, you must include a network
configuration record for every RDF subsystem in the RDF network (including the network master
itself). Each of those records must include the following parameters:
Name of the primary system.
PRIMARYSYSTEM system-name
Name of the associated backup system.
BACKUPSYSTEM system-name
Name of the primary system’s remote control subvolume.
REMOTECONTROLSUBVOL subvolume-name
Name of the primary system volume on which the RDF
subsystem stores an audited network synchronization file.
PNETTXVOLUME volume-name
If you are configuring a non network master RDF subsystem, you must include a single network
configuration record containing the following attributes:
Name of the network master’s primary system.
PRIMARYSYSTEM system-name
Name of the network master’s backup system.
BACKUPSYSTEM system-name
Name of the network master’s remote control
subvolume.
REMOTECONTROLSUBVOL subvolume-name
Thus, within its configuration file, the network master has all necessary information about every
system in the RDF network (whereas the other systems have only a pointer enabling them to
obtain information about other systems in the network).
PRIMARYSYSTEM Parameter
The PRIMARYSYSTEM parameter specifies the name of a primary system. There is no default
value. Each primary system within an RDF network must be unique within the network. An
RDF network cannot contain two or more RDF subsystems with the same primary system (that
is, it cannot contain RDF subsystems for \A to \B and \A to \C).
BACKUPSYSTEM Parameter
The BACKUPSYSTEM parameter specifies the name of the backup system associated with the
specified primary system. There is no default value.
