VCS main.cf file configuration in veritas leads HA failure between the servers.

Below are descriptions of the states that a Cluster Server node could end up in problem with configuration file in veritas leads HA failure as seen from
the following command:

root@N2000SERVERA # hastatus
attempting to connect....connected

group resource system message
--------------- -------------------- -------------------- --------------------
N2000SERVERA ADMIN WAIT
problem with configuration file?
N2000SERVERB *FAULTED*
 

root@N2000SERVERA # hastatus
attempting to connect....connected

group resource system message
--------------- -------------------- -------------------- --------------------
N2000SERVERA ADMIN WAIT
problem with configuration file?
N2000SERVERB *FAULTED*

Procedure:
Execute following command
# hasys -force sysname
This will have the effect of starting Cluster Server on that node and starting Cluster Server running on all other nodes in the ADMIN_WAIT or STALE_ADMIN_WAIT state.

If all systems are in STALE_ADMIN_WAIT or ADMIN_WAIT, first validate the configuration file (/etc/VRTSvcs/conf/config/main.cf) on all systems in the cluster by running the 'hacf -verify .' command for syntax error check (ensure that this command is run in the directory containing the main.cf file), and reviewing its contents for proper resource and service group definitions.


The main.cf which includes a Rational ClearCase service group and resources. In this example, the sample scripts in previous sections were created in the/etc/VRTSvcs directory, but could be placed in any directory that is accessible by root.
