Sun Cluster 3.1 Data Services Developer's Guide

Resource Type Names in Earlier Versions of Sun Cluster

Resource type names in Sun Cluster 3.0 did not contain the version suffix:


vendor_id.resource_name

A resource type that was originally registered under Sun Cluster 3.0 continues to have a name of this form even after you upgrade the clustering software to Sun Cluster 3.1. Similarly, a resource type whose RTR file is missing the #$upgrade directive is given a Sun Cluster 3.0 format name, without the version suffix, if the RTR file is registered on a cluster running Sun Cluster 3.1 software.

You can register RTR files with the #$upgrade or #$upgrade_from directive in Sun Cluster 3.0, but, migrating existing resources to new resource types in Sun Cluster 3.0 is not supported.
