Hi Simon,

I'm not 100% sure what you are asking but if you mean that you want to move the package db over to node br56, you first need to stop it on node br55, and then start it on node br56

cmhaltpkg -n br55 -v db
cmrunpkg -n br56 -v db

Should be enough to re-start db on node br56.

Hi,

Yes that's correct I want to failover the current node to br56 so the commands were fine.

Thanks,
Simon

Simon - yes - your commands are fine.

You can also use the Service Guard Manager GUI and move packages with it.
