Node Switching parameter

Hi,

There are 2 pkgs (INFORMIX and ORACLE) running in my administer MCSG node. When there is a failed over occurs, the SWITCHING in Node_Switching_Parameters of "cmviewcl -v" for INFORMIX pkg is always enabled but this is oppose for ORACLE pkg. Is there a file to configure this parameter?

Note that the NET_SWITCHING_ENABLED in both conf files are set to YES.


Thanks in advance,
YC

Re: Node Switching parameter

Hi,

As I know that, if there is a failed over, the node that failed to run the package will be treated as a fault node. So the switching will change to disable. In this case, you can use command "cmmodpkg" to change the fault node back to normal so that the switching can be enabled.

Use:
cmmodpkg -e -n

Hope this helps.
Kenny.

Re: Node Switching parameter

Hello YC,

When a true package failover occurs, ServiceGuard "disables" that "failed" node from running the package again. To simply halt a package on one node and start it on another does not disable it from running on the original node.

The "Node_Switching_Parameters" field of the cmviewcl output for each package shows whether a package is ENABLED or DISABLED from running on a specific node.

To flip the switching state of a package, use the "cmmodpkg -e|n " command.
