Resynchronizing an Availability Suite Protection Group

You can resynchronize the configuration information of the local protection group with the configuration information retrieved from the partner cluster. You need to resynchronize a protection group when its Synchronization status in the output of the geoadm status command is Error.

For example, you might need to resynchronize protection groups after booting the cluster. For more information, see Booting a Cluster in Oracle Solaris Cluster Geographic Edition System Administration Guide.

Resynchronizing a protection group updates only entities that are related to Geographic Edition. To update Oracle Solaris Cluster resource groups, resource types, and resources, use the cluster export -t rg,rt,rs command to generate an XML cluster configuration file, modify the XML file for the expected configuration on the secondary cluster, and run the clresource create command with the -a option to apply the configuration updates. For more information, see How to Configure Oracle Solaris Cluster Software on All Nodes (XML) in Oracle Solaris Cluster Software Installation Guide and the cluster(1CL) and clresource(1CL) man pages.

How to Resynchronize an Availability Suite Protection Group

Before You Begin

The protection group must be deactivated on the cluster where you run the geopg update command.

1. Log in to a cluster node.

   You must be assigned the Geo Management RBAC rights profile to complete this procedure. For more information about RBAC, see Geographic Edition Software and RBAC in Oracle Solaris Cluster Geographic Edition System Administration Guide.

2. Resynchronize the protection group.

   # geopg update protectiongroupname

   protectiongroupname

   Specifies the name of the protection group
