API Commands or Command Options To Be Replaced or Made Obsolete

The following commands and command options might not be available in future Sun Cluster releases.

• haget(1M) query on names_on_subnets

  # haget -f names_on_subnets -h physical_host

• haget query on vfstab_file

  # haget -f vfstab_file -h logical_hostname

• -r reconfiguration option to hactl(1M)

  # hactl -r ...

• The cluster reconfiguration process described in the hareg(1M) man page might change in future releases. The reconfiguration process might no longer be a lock step process. You should not develop highly available data services that depend on the steps occurring in lock step.

Internal Programs To Be Retired in Future Releases

The Sun Cluster implementation contains many programs that are used internally by the implementation and are not intended for use by customers. Any program that does not have a man page in Sun Cluster 2.2 7/00 Release falls into this category. These programs will not exist in their current form in subsequent releases of the product. Some examples include clustm, scccd, and ccdmatch.
