Defining the PATROL Agent as a member of the package

This section explains how to add the PATROL Agent service to the cluster application's control script for a package. This task is commonly referred to as binding the agent to the cluster application.

Note

The following code is a subset of the control script and does not represent a complete script. It is provided to give you an idea of the type and extent of changes you must make in HP's MC ServiceGuard or other UNIX cluster management software.

Make the following additions to the customer_defined_run_cmds:

# Start of user-defined functions.
function customer_defined_run_cmds
{
# Add customer defined run commands.
# PATROL Start command (substitute correct path
# and port).
\\ \\ su patrol -c "/opt/PATROL3.4/PatrolAgent -p 3939"
# End of Patrol Start command.
test_return 51}}
}

Make the following additions to the customer_defined_halt_cmds:

function customer_defined_run_cmds
{
# Add customer defined halt commands.
# PATROL halt command (substitute correct path
# and port).
PID=$ (ps -ef|awk '$NF=="3939" \{ print $2\}')
if\[[ -n $PID ]]
then
kill -TERM $PID
fi
# End of Patrol Start command.
test_return 52
}
