Resource Type Names in Earlier 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

A resource type that was originally registered under Sun Cluster 3.0 continues to have a name that follows this syntax even after the cluster administrator upgrades the clustering software to Sun Cluster 3.1 or later releases. Similarly, a resource type whose RTR file is missing the #$upgrade directive is given a Sun Cluster 3.0 format name (without the version suffix) if the RTR file is registered on a cluster that is running at least Sun Cluster 3.1.

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.
