Thanks

> +Integration of NTFSv with CLM service for return code
> SA_AIS_ERR_UNAVAILABLE.
> +=========================================================
> ===========
> +Current implementation of NTFSv conforms to A.01.01 spec and this spec
> version
> +does not talk about unavailability of the NTFSv APIs on a CLM Non-Member
> Node.
> +Intergartion of NTFSv with CLM is mentioned in the A.02.01 spec in the
> section
> +"3.13 Unavailability of the Notification Service API on a Non-Member Node"
> page no. 42.
> +For OpenSAF release 5.0, enhancement ticket
> https://sourceforge.net/p/opensaf/tickets/1639/
> +is intended to provide this functionality for A.01.01 APIs. This enhancement
> does not
> +implement any new API of A.02.01.
> 
> +Implementation Notes for NTF-CLM integration:
> +============================================
> +As a part of \#1639, minor version of NTF service is updated to 02, so
> +highest supported version will be A.01.02. Update to the minor version is
> done
> +keeping in mind following facts:
> +
> +1)A A.01.01 user will not be ready to handle SA_AIS_ERR_UNAVAILABLE.
> +2)A new NTF user can initialize with A.01.02 for the impact of CLM
> membership
> +  status of node on application and for getting A.01.01 functionality at the
> same
> +  time.
> +3)All OpenSAF middleware services which are integrated with NTFs should
> not be impacted
> +  because of membership status of node.
> +
> +Thus there is a minor deviation from spec in following ways:
> +1)An application trying to initialize with A.01.01 will get A.01.01 as 
> returned
> +version not the highest supported version A.01.02.
> +2)An application trying to initialize other than A.01.01 will get returned
> version A.01.02.
> +
> +Changes at NTFS (NTF-CLM integration):
> +=========================================
> +1)Now NTFS (both active and standby) maintains saf version of the client (in
> class NtfClient)
> +  to differentiate between A.01.02 and A.01.01 (in future A.02.01 and
> A.03.01).
> +2)Active NTFS now checkpoints SAF version of the clients along with
> mdsDest and client_id. For
> +  this its MBCSV version is upgraded and now it remembers its peer MBCSV
> version also.
> +3)NtfAdmin maintains a list of nodes which are member nodes (in class
> NtfAdmin).
> +  It also provides memeber functions and their wrappers for accessing this
> list.
> +4)NTFs subscribes for CLM service to track clm membership status of node.
> +  For this new file ntf_clm.c has been introduced. As of now subscription to
> CLM service
> +  is done when NTFS gets up event for AVD(through MDS). The reason:
> CLMSv is started after NTFSV
> +  and CLMSv is client of NTFSv. In the abscence of CLMSV during start up,
> initial
> +  membership status of node is a member-node. In 5.1 release, after cluster
> management
> +  enhancement \#439 this may require minor changes.
> +5)Upon receiving CLM track callback, NTFS (both active and standby)
> updates its membership
> +  list for new change only like a new node join cluster or existing node lost
> CLM membership status.
> +  After updating list, only active NTFS will send changed membership status
> to all the clients,
> +  excluding A.01.01, on that node. For this a new callback message structure
> ntfsv_ntfa_clm_status_cbk_t
> +  is introduce in main callback structure ntfsv_cbk_info_t.
> +6)Every time a new A.01.02 agent comes up on any node, it is initialized only
> after verfifying the
> +  CLM membership status of its node.
> +
> +Changes at NTFA (NTF-CLM integration):
> +=========================================
> +1)NTFA maintains membership status of its node in ntfa_cb-
> >clm_node_state. It is updated
> +  when NTFS sends membership status through MDS message.
> +2)A client at NTFA now maintains its SAF version(client->version) and
> +  its own validity (client->is_stale_client) because of membership status of
> node. A client
> +  becomes stale if its node loses cluster membership.
> +3)Each API (except saNtfFinalize()) now checks validity of client with 
> respect
> to CLM
> +  membership for returning SA_AIS_ERR_UNAVAILABLE.
> +4)Upon receiving membership status of node from NTFS, NTFA updates
> ntfa_cb->clm_node_state and
> +  mark client as a stale client. For such a client all API calls (except
> saNtfFinalize()) will
> +  result in SA_AIS_ERR_UNAVAILABLE. A user is expected to call
> saNtfFinalize() in this case.
> +
> +Other Changes and tests (NTF-CLM integration):
> +===================================
> +1)SAF version of commands  ntfread, ntfsend and ntfsubscribe is now
> updated to A.01.02.
> +2)New file tests/ntfsv/tet_ntf_clm.c contains tests for this functionality. 
> For
> running
> +  these tests atleast two nodes are required as CLM admin operation are not
> supported on active
> +  controller. These tests are not included in the testlist if run on active
> controller.
> +
> +TODOs (NTF-CLM integration):
> +=============================
> +1)Need to rebase over \#1180 (Cloud resilience patch) once it gets pushed.
> +2)Need to handle one use case (commented by me on \#1180 ). Recovery
> of client,
> +  if payload node does not join CLM membership when first controller
> comes up after
> +  headless state.
> +3)Forced admin lock of CLM node when shutdown operation is going on.
> For this,
> +  NTFS must track CLM with SA_CLM_CHANGE_START also.
