Sun Cluster Data Services Developer's Guide for Solaris OS

Resource Type Names in Previous Versions of Sun Cluster

Resource type names in Sun Cluster 3.0 do not contain the version suffix, as shown here:

vendor-id.resource-type

The name of a resource type that you registered in Sun Cluster 3.0 retains this syntax in Sun Cluster 3.1 and Sun Cluster 3.2. If you register an RTR file in Sun Cluster 3.1 or Sun Cluster 3.2 that omits the #$upgrade directive, the resource type name also follows this syntax.

The cluster administrator can register RTR files by using the #$upgrade directive or the #$upgrade_from directive in Sun Cluster 3.0. However, upgrading existing resources to new resource types in Sun Cluster 3.0 is not supported.
