These requirements apply to Sun Cluster HA for DHCP only. You must meet these requirements before you proceed with your Sun Cluster HA for DHCP installation and configuration.
Your data service configuration might not be supported if you do not adhere to these requirements.
DHCP component and its dependencies —You can configure the Sun Cluster HA for DHCP data service to protect a DHCP component.
The DHCP component has a configuration and registration file under /opt/SUNWscdhc/util. These files allow you to register the DHCP components with Sun Cluster.

Sun Cluster HA for DHCP data service – Requires Solaris 8 7/01 (or later) with patches 109077-12 (or later) and 111302-02 (or later) or Solaris 9.
Ensure that /etc/inet/dhcpsvc.conf is consistent on all nodes within Sun Cluster that will host the DHCP service, or is linked on a directory on a Cluster File System.
If Tftp daemon check is being used you must create a non-zero testfile in defined tftpdirectory on all the nodes in the cluster that will use DHCP.
/etc/inet/dhcpsvc.conf parameters – You must set the following /etc/inet/dhcpsvc.conf parameters:
DAEMON_ENABLED is always set to true.
PATH points to the Cluster File System for the DHCP network table or local filesystem, if static DHCP is beeing used.
INTERFACE must be used, if Carrier-Grade Transport Procol is beeing used.
RUN_MODE is always set to SERVER
ICMP_VERIFY is always set to false, if active testing is being used.
RESOURCE is set to either SUNWbinfiles or SUNWfiles.
