VG not activating in Service Guard environment

[Bharat Katkar]

Hi Suraj,
Before starting any service i.e. package, the VG/LV's/Filesystems used by that particular packages are started and mounted first. Unless and untill how they can access all required binaries and other files which are there on that filesystems. After that i.e. package ASCII file has completed its task then comes in picture your control script wherein you control the startup and halting of the package.
Similarly when you shut the cluster down all the services are brought down first and then the Filesystems unmounted and VG are deactivated.

Hope that helps.
All the besr
BHarat
