Sun Cluster Data Service for PostgreSQL Guide for Solaris OS

Restriction for the PostgreSQL smf Service Name in a Failover Zone

The PostgreSQL configuration in a failover zone uses the smf component of Sun Cluster HA for Solaris Containers. The registration of the Sun Cluster HA for PostgreSQL data service in a failover zone defines an smf service to control the PostgreSQL database. The name of this smf service is generated in this naming scheme: svc:/application/sczone-agents:resource-name. No other smf service with exactly this name can exist.

The associated smf manifest is automatically created during the registration process in this location and naming scheme: /var/svc/manifest/application/sczone-agents/resource-name.xml. No other manifest can coexist with this name.
