How to Clear a Start_failed Resource State by Restarting a Resource Group

Perform this procedure from any cluster node.

Before You Begin

Ensure that the following conditions are met:

• You have the following information:

  • The name of the resource group that you are restarting

  • The name of the node on which to restart the resource group

• The nodes or zones where the resource group is to be brought online or to remain online are cluster nodes.

1. On a cluster member, become superuser or assume a role that provides solaris.cluster.modify RBAC authorization.

2. Restart the resource group.

   # clresourcegroup restart -n node resource-group

   -n node

   Specifies the name of the node on which the resource group is to be restarted. This resource group is switched offline on all of the other nodes.

   resource-group

   Specifies the name of the resource group to restart.

3. Verify that the resource group has been restarted on the new node and that the Start_failed resource state is cleared.

   # clresourcegroup status

   The output from this command indicates the state of the resource and the resource group that has been restarted.

Example 2–24 Clearing a Start_failed Resource State by Restarting a Resource Group

This example shows how to clear a Start_failed resource state that has occurred on the rscon resource in the resource-group-1 resource group. The command clears this condition by restarting the resource group on the global zone phys-schost-1 .

1. To verify that the resource is in the Start_failed resource state on phys-schost-1, the following command is run:

   # clresource status === Cluster Resources === Resource Name Node Name Status Message -------------- ---------- ------- ------- rscon phys-schost-1 Faulted Faulted phys-schost-2 Offline Offline hastor phys-schost-1 Online Online phys-schost-2 Offline Offline

2. To restart the resource, the following command is run:

   # clresourcegroup restart -n phys-schost-1 –g resource-group-1

3. To verify that the resource group is restarted on phys-schost-1 and that the Start_failed resource status is cleared, the following command is run:

   # clresource status === Cluster Resources === Resource Name Node Name Status Message -------------- ---------- ------- ------- rscon phys-schost-1 Offline Offline rscon phys-schost-2 Online Online hastor phys-schost-1 Online Online hastor phys-schost-2 Offline Offline
