Solstice DiskSuite software might not be supported in a future release of Sun Cluster software. If you use Solstice DiskSuite software, upgrade to the Solaris 9 or Solaris 10 OS, which will upgrade you automatically to Solaris Volume Manager software. For upgrade information, see Solaris 9 9/04 Installation Guide or Solaris 10 Installation Guide: Solaris Live Upgrade and Upgrade Planning.
Sun Fire Link might not be supported in a future release of Sun Cluster software. If you use Sun Fire Link, use another interconnect technology that Sun Cluster software supports. For information about interconnect hardware that Sun Cluster software supports, see Chapter 3, Installing Cluster Interconnect Hardware and Configuring VLANs, in Sun Cluster 3.0-3.1 Hardware Administration Manual for Solaris OS.
SunPlex Installer might not be supported in a future release of Sun Cluster software. To establish a new Sun Cluster configuration, use the scinstall utility instead. The scinstall utility supports, through the command line interface, all functionality that SunPlex Installer provides.
The configuration of IPMP groups (add or remove) might not be included in a future release. This function is available through the Solaris ifconfig(1M) command. See the ifconfig(1M) man page for information on specific options.
The SUNW.RGOffload resource type might not be available in future Sun Cluster releases. All functions provided by this resource type are available through the RG_affinities resource group property and its "negative affinity" option.
If you have currently configured a SUNW.RGOffload resource, perform the following actions to use the "negative affinity" option of the RG_affinities resource group property.
Remove the dependency of the critical resource on the SUNW.RGOffload resource.
# scrgadm -cj critical-rs -y Resource_dependencies="" |
Remove the SUNW.RGOffload resource and resource type.
# scrgadm -nj rgofl # scrgadm -rj rgofl # scrgadm -rt SUNW.RGOffload |
Change the non-critical resource group property to have a negative affinity towards the critical resource group (which contains critical-rs).
# scrgadm -c -g non-critical-rg -y RG_affinities=--critical-rg |
This example shows only a strong negative affinity. You may be able to set weak negative affinity, and other type of dependencies across online resource groups. Please refer to Distributing Online Resource Groups Among Cluster Nodes in Sun Cluster Data Services Planning and Administration Guide for Solaris OSfor details on configuring online resource group dependencies feature.
