Using Solaris Cluster Administration Commands to Create a Service That Uses the GDS

This section describes how to input arguments to the GDS. You use the existing Solaris Cluster administration commands, such as clresourcetype, clresourcegroup, and clresource to maintain and administer the GDS.

If the scripts provide adequate functionality, you do not need to use the lower-level administration commands that are shown in this section. However, you can use the lower-level administration commands if you need to have finer control over the GDS-based resource. These commands are executed by the scripts.

How to Use Solaris Cluster Administration Commands to Create a Highly Available Service That Uses the GDS

1. Become superuser or assume a role that provides solaris.cluster.modify RBAC authorization.
2. Register the resource type SUNW.gds.

   # clresourcetype register SUNW.gds

3. Create the resource group that contains the LogicalHostname resource and the failover service itself.

   # clresourcegroup create haapp_rg

4. Create the resource for the LogicalHostname resource.

   # clreslogicalhostname create -g haapp_rg hhead

5. Create the resource for the failover service itself.

   # clresource create -g haapp_rg -t SUNW.gds
           -p Validate_command="/export/app/bin/configtest" \
           -p Scalable=false -p Start_timeout=120 \
           -p Stop_timeout=120 -p Probe_timeout=120 \
           -p Port_list="2222/tcp" \
           -p Start_command="/export/ha/appctl/start" \
           -p Stop_command="/export/ha/appctl/stop" \
           -p Probe_command="/export/app/bin/probe" \
           -p Child_mon_level=0 -p Network_resources_used=hhead \
           -p Failover_enabled=TRUE -p Stop_signal=9 haapp_rs

6. Bring the resource group haapp_rg online in a managed state.

   # clresourcegroup online -M haapp_rg

How to Use Solaris Cluster Administration Commands to Create a Scalable Service That Uses the GDS

1. Become superuser or assume a role that provides solaris.cluster.modify RBAC authorization.
2. Register the resource type SUNW.gds.

   # clresourcetype register SUNW.gds

3. Create the resource group for the SharedAddress resource.

   # clresourcegroup create sa_rg

4. Create the SharedAddress resource hhead in resource group sa_rg.

   # clressharedaddress create -g sa_rg hhead

5. Create the resource group for the scalable service.

   # clresourcegroup create -S -p RG_dependencies=sa_reg app_rg

6. Create the resource for the scalable service.

   # clresource create -g app_rg -t SUNW.gds
           -p Validate_command="/export/app/bin/configtest" \
           -p Scalable=TRUE -p Start_timeout=120 \
           -p Stop_timeout=120 -p Probe_timeout=120 \
           -p Port_list="2222/tcp" \
           -p Start_command="/export/app/bin/start" \
           -p Stop_command="/export/app/bin/stop" \
           -p Probe_command="/export/app/bin/probe" \
           -p Child_mon_level=0 -p Network_resource_used=hhead \
           -p Failover_enabled=TRUE -p Stop_signal=9 app_rs

7. Bring the resource group that contains the network resources online.

   # clresourcegroup online sa_reg

8. Bring the resource group app_rg online in a managed state.

   # clresourcegroup online -M app_reg
