Command-Line Interface to the SunPlex Agent Builder

The SunPlex Agent Builder has a command-line interface that has equivalent functionality to the GUI interface. This interface consists of the commands scdscreate(1HA) and scdsconfig(1HA). The following section performs the same function as the GUI-based procedure Creating a Service That Uses GDS With the Command-Line Version of Agent Builder but uses the non-GUI interface.

Creating a Service That Uses GDS With the Command-Line Version of Agent Builder

1. Create the service.

   For a failover service, use:

   # scdscreate -g -V NET -T app -d /export/wdir

   For a scalable service, use:

   # scdscreate -g -s -V NET -T app -d /export/wdir

   ---

   Note –

   The –d parameters are optional. If it is not specified, the working directory defaults to the current directory.

   ---

2. Configure the service.

   # scdsconfig -s "/export/app/bin/start' -t "/export/app/bin/stop" \ -m "/export/app/bin/probe" -d /export/wdir

   ---

   Note –

   Only the start command is required. All other parameters are optional.

   ---

3. Install the completed package on all nodes of the cluster.

   # cd /export/wdir/NETapp/pkg # pkgadd -d . NETapp

4. The following files will be installed during the pkgadd:

   /opt/NETapp /opt/NETapp/README.app /opt/NETapp/man /opt/NETapp/man/man1m /opt/NETapp/man/man1m/removeapp.1m /opt/NETapp/man/man1m/startapp.1m /opt/NETapp/man/man1m/stopapp.1m /opt/NETapp/man/man1m/app_config.1m /opt/NETapp/util /opt/NETapp/util/removeapp /opt/NETapp/util/startapp /opt/NETapp/util/stopapp /opt/NETapp/util/app_config

   ---

   Note –

   The man pages and script names will correspond to the Application Name you entered above preceded by the script name; for example, startapp.

   ---

   To view the man pages, you need to specify the path to the man page. For example, to view the startapp man pages, use:

   # man -M /opt/NETapp/man startapp

5. On one node of the cluster, configure the resources and start the application.

   # /opt/NETapp/util/startapp -h <logichostname> -p <port and protocol list>

   The arguments to the start script will vary according to the type of resource: failover or scalable. Check the customized man page or run the start script without any argument to get a usage statement.

   # /opt/NETapp/util/startapp The resource name of LogicalHostname or SharedAddress must be specified. For failover services: Usage: startapp -h <logical host name> -p <port and protocol list> [-n <ipmpgroup/adapter list>] For scalable services: Usage: startapp -h <shared address name> -p <port and protocol list> [-l <load balancing policy>] [-n <ipmpgroup/adapter list>] [-w <load balancing weights>]
