[wish_1]

Dear all
I have HP rp7400 and HP-UX 11i OS. There are two servers in MC/ServiceGuard cluster mode having 4 live packages. Now I want to add one more packages in it(after installing disks) , So where can i find inforamtion about how to add package considering all the risks involved. Also plz send step-by-step process and links for better explaination. I want to know is there any parameter describing limit how much packages can be created.
Regards,
Wish

to create a new package you'll need 3 commands
cmmakepkg (to create package control script and package ascii file)
cmcheckconf (to check the package configuration file)
cmapplyconf (to apply the package configuration to the cluster)
Have a look at the man pages of all these 3 commands before you proceed.
Also the number of package that a cluster handles is defined in cluster configuration file.
Also have a look at this manual
Below are the steps in brief
http://docs.hp.com/en/B3936-90065/ch06.html
#mkdir /etc/cmcluster/
#cd /etc/cmcluster/
#cmmakepkg -v -s pkg.sh
#cmmakepkg -v -p pkg.ascii
edit both the files to make the required changes like, add the filesystem and vg you want to activate, assign the package name and assign the primary and secondary node etc..
after this check the configuration using
#cmcheckconf -v -P pkg.ascii
if you dont get any errors then run
#cmapplyconf -v -P pkg.ascii
#cmviewcl
you should see the new package as down
now to test start the package
#cmrunpkg -v pkg
