MC/Service Guard Cluster : Informix Package switch

[Thomas Kopp]

Moin,

I just want to switch my Informix Package form on node to the other.
How can it done?? Is this correct?
Will there be a service break??
#cmviewcl -v
#cmhaltpkg pkg1 -n node1
#cmrunpkg -n node2 pkg1
#cmmodpkg -e pkg1
#cmviewcl -v
Thanks

Yes the above will manually move your pkg1 from node 1 to node 2. The cmmodpkg is irrelevant, because the pkg will not failback on it's own, so you will have to rerun your manual command to put it back.

Rgrds,

Yes to switch the Infomix package will break the Informix service.

If you halt a package following will go on:
° halt the application
° umount all filesystems
° deactivate all volume groups
° remove the ip_address

The same happens in reverse order by starting the package.

The way you want to switch the package is ok.

Yes , you have all the steps correct .

Yes there will be service break when you halt the package on node1 .
