Sun Cluster Concepts Guide for Solaris OS

HAStoragePlus Resource Type

The HAStoragePlus resource type is designed to make non-global file system configurations such as UFS and VxFS highly available. Use HAStoragePlus to integrate your local file system into the Sun Cluster environment and make the file system highly available. HAStoragePlus provides additional file system capabilities such as checks, mounts, and forced unmounts that enable Sun Cluster to fail over local file systems. In order to fail over, the local file system must reside on global disk groups with affinity switchovers enabled.

See Enabling Highly Available Local File Systems in Sun Cluster Data Services Planning and Administration Guide for Solaris OS for information about how to use the HAStoragePlus resource type.

HAStoragePlus can also used to synchronize the startup of resources and disk device groups on which the resources depend. For more information, see Resources, Resource Groups, and Resource Types.
