Re: [Veritas-ha] AutoStartList: One or both nodes?

2008-06-25 Thread Eric Hennessey
According to the docs, if the system identified in AutoStartList isn't up when all others are up after a full cluster start, the SG remains offline. So if you really don't care which system hosts a given SG on cluster start, you can omit the AutoStartList attribute. Eric From: [EMAIL PROTE

ClusterService is a group that "belongs" to the cluster itself. In most instances you will find it that way you describe. It also is a great place for the notifier resource. Normally it is not required. When using Global Clustering (connecting 2 or more clusters for wide area failover), the Wide Ar

The order of auto starting is based on the AutoStartPolicy which defaults to "Order". Therfore the first one in the list would be the preferred system for AutoStart. From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jon Price Sent: Wednesday, June

No problem. In your case, shutting down CSG will stop notification. It has no effect on VCS. From: i man [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, June 25, 2008 8:53 AM To: Gene Henriksen; veritas-ha@mailman.eng.auburn.edu Subject: Re: [Veritas-ha] ClusterSer

You asked what it would do to VCS. IT has no effect on VCS. IT will stop the VCS web service, therefore the web GUI is no longer there. It will take down the VIP for the cluster. You can use hagui and connect to the base IP of the system, but not the virtual IP of the cluster at that point. It has

Hi Eric, re: "if the system identified in AutoStartList isn’t up when all others are up after a full cluster start, the SG remains offline" Doesn't that statement mean just the opposite though? If there is no AutoStartList attribute, that would mean the Service group(s) would NOT startup autom
