Subject: [Veritas-ha] replacing nodes with newer Veritas VCS
Softwareinstalled

 


 

We are in the process of replacing 2 Sunfire V880 with newer V490
systems.

the current versions installed are

Solaris 8

VCS 3.5

 

The new 490 are installed with 

Solaris 9

VCS 4.1

 

will there be any side effects when

1. creating a 3-way cluster by adding a 490 having VCS 4.1 installed
to the exisiting 2-Way cluster having 3.5 installed

2. after creating the 3-Way cluster we are going to remove one of
the 880 (VCS3.5)

3. doing the above steps with the next 880 

 

 

 

sincerely

 

Klaus

[Veritas-ha] Proxy resource in status unknown

2007-04-16 Thread Fred Grieco
I've set up a proxy resource that references a NIC
resource in another service group.  The NIC resource
is online, but the proxy resource shows Online|status
unknown.  

What does this mean in a Proxy resource?  And is there
any way to clear the unknown status?  This is on a
live Oracle cluster so I don't have the opportunity to
down everything, etc.

TIA,

Fred

The actual NIC is not enabled, so the Proxy cannot probe. (at least that

Re: [Veritas-ha] Proxy resource in status unknown

2007-04-16 Thread Cronin, John S
Yes:

Enabled defaults to 0, because until you have the attributes for a
resource configured the monitor will almost surely fail because it
doesn't have sufficient information to check the status, and this is
extremely inconvenient while you are trying to configure the resource.
In the period between creating the resource and having it configured
enough for successful monitoring, you really don't want VCS trying to
monitor it.

Critical defaults to 1 because once you have enabled the resource, you
will probably want it to be Critical - it would be easy to forget to
change it to Critical if that was something you were required to do, and
then you might not notice the problem until the first time a resource
faulted and did NOT failover as you probably expected it to do.

Subject: [Veritas-ha] Proxy resource in
 status
   unknown

I've set up a proxy resource that references a
  NIC
   resource in another
   
service group.  The NIC resource is online,
 but
   the proxy resource
shows Online|status unknown.

What does this mean in a Proxy resource?  And
 is
   there any way to
clear the unknown status?  This is on a live
   Oracle cluster so I don't
   
have the opportunity to down everything, etc.

TIA,

Fred

One other reason for not Enabled: some resources run a Open entry
point when you enable them to create some structure in memory. If all
attributes are not sec correctly, such as when creating resources from
the command line, the structure would be incorrectly built and then
would not come online. In class we recommend that anytime you change
attributes you should disable the resource, make the change and then
Enable. As soon as you enable, a monitor is run.

Yes:

Enabled defaults to 0, because until you have the attributes for a
resource configured the monitor will almost surely fail because it
doesn't have sufficient information to check the status, and this is
extremely inconvenient while you are trying to configure the resource.
In the period between creating the resource and having it configured
enough for successful monitoring, you really don't want VCS trying to
monitor it.

Critical defaults to 1 because once you have enabled the resource, you
will probably want it to be Critical - it would be easy to forget to
change it to Critical if that was something you were required to do, and
then you might not notice the problem until the first time a resource
faulted and did NOT failover as you probably expected it to do.

This started when I copied the resource from another service group.  

As an aside, is there a reason why resources are defaulted to disabled
and critical when they are created or copied?

  The actual NIC is not enabled, so the Proxy cannot probe. (at least

  Here are the snipets from the main.cf.  There are three SGs, one 
  with the actual NIC resource and two with proxies.
 Both
  proxies show the
  online status unknown state.

   Yes, with the same priorities.
