Creating a Heartbeat Plug-in

This section describes procedures for creating a heartbeat plug-in.

How to Create Heartbeat Plug-in

Become superuser or assume a role that is assigned the Geo Management RBAC rights profile.
For more information about RBAC, see Geographic Edition Software and RBAC.
Note - If you use a role with Geo Management RBAC rights, ensure that the /var/cluster/geo ACLs are correct on each node of both partner clusters. If necessary, become superuser on the cluster node and set the correct ACLs.
```
# chmod A+user:username:rwx:allow /var/cluster/geo
```
The /var/cluster/geo directory must have the correct access control lists (ACL) applied for compatibility between the Geo Management RBAC rights profile and Oracle Data Guard.
Add the heartbeat plug-in to an existing heartbeat.
```
# geohb add-plugin heartbeatname pluginname \
[-p propertysetting [-p…]] 
```
heartbeatname

Specifies the identifier for heartbeat on the local cluster.

pluginname

Specifies the name of the heartbeat plug-in.

-ppropertysetting

Specifies a heartbeat plug-in property that is assigned a value by using a name=statement pair. Multiple properties might be set at one time by using multiple statements.
For more information about the properties you can set, see Appendix A, Standard Geographic Edition Properties.

For more information about the geohb command, refer to the geohb(1M) man page.
