Serviceguard w/ Sap Extentions not starting the remote app servers

[jtfischer]

Hi,

Have a weird problem. Working with SG 3.12 on HPUX and trying to start 3 remote app servers running LINUX. I can connect with SSH just fine manually from root on the SG machine but when SG tries to do it...it wont work. I show

config looks ok. It seems to be an issue with SSH on SG. Anyone else have tried to start a linux box via ssh and have it work successfully?

If I run

ssh p01adm@gvl722 startsap

it goes to the app server(gvl722) just fine and starts the dialog instance on the linux box. So ssh config doesnt seem to be an issue...just when its run from the sap extentions in SG.

Any help would be welcome.

Thanks,

John Fischer

I don't use Linux for app servers nor ssh to start them...however - I may still be able to help...

Do you have a /etc/cmcluster/sap.function file?

Basically, I'm looking for the commands you use to ssh...

For example, with remsh, it looks like so:

remsh ${I} -l ${SIDADM} -n "csh -c \"${CLEANUP}~/startsap_${I}_${ASNR[$INR]}
r3 & \"" >/dev/null 2>&1

Rgds...Geoff

you may want to check whether you have patched SgeSAP:
cumulative patch for SGeSAP 4.01:
HP-UX 11.11: PHSS_34636
HP-UX 11.23: PHSS_34637

cumulative patch for SGeSAP 3.12:
HP-UX 11.11: PHSS_30740
HP-UX 11.23: PHSS_30741

Thanks for all the help. Its was an issue in the customer.functions and it couldn't find where /bin/sh was on LINUX and failed.

working properly once it was told where the shell is and it found it.

Thanks,

John
