Hi,

which contents for file /etc/cmcluster/qs_authfile?

Best regards,

Check for missing/damaged entry in /etc/inittab for quorum server. Fix it and re-read inittab with:
# init q

After that check for process qs.

Assuming the quorum server software is on an HP-UX server outside the cluster...
The -update option is only used to cause the quorum server code to re-read the authfile (/etc/cmcluster/qs_authfile) containing a list of nodes to support for quorum server.

SYNOPSIS
qs [ -verbose ] [ -update ] [ -version ]

/etc/inittab should have a line of the form:
qs:345:respawn:/usr/lbin/qs >> /var/adm/qs/qs.log 2>&1


Verify that the quorum server is actually running. Example:
# ps -ef | grep qs
root 26652 26649 0 Sep 2 ? 0:00 /usr/lbin/qsc

Verify that port 1238 is defined on the quorum server

# grep 1238 /etc/services
hacl-qs 1238/tcp # HA cluster Quorum Server
hacl-qs 1238/udp # HA cluster Quorum Server

Next, make sure the quorum server port is actively listening:
# netstat -a | grep 1238
tcp 0 0 *.1238 *.* LISTEN
