Cluster resource load, unload, and monitor scripts are automatically generated for a pool when
the cluster resource for the pool is created. You can modify the scripts and their timeout values
to suit your needs. For examples of the scripts for NSS, see the following:
Section 10.7, "Configuring a Load Script for the Shared NSS Pool," on page 149
Section 10.8, "Configuring an Unload Script for the Shared NSS Pool," on page 150

10.6 Adding Advertising Protocols

Shared NSS pools support three advertising protocols: NCP (default, mandatory), Novell AFP, and
Novell CIFS. You can add Novell AFP or Novell CIFS as advertising protocols for an existing pool
cluster resource.
You must install Novell CIFS or Novell AFP on all the servers where you want to fail over the pool
resource, but you set up the advertising protocol only once on the pool cluster resource. Before you
begin, make sure the pool is migrated back to the server where it was originally created.
1 Start your Internet browser and enter the URL for iManager.
The URL is http://server_ip_address/nps/imanager.html. Replace server_ip_address with the
IP address or DNS name of a server in the cluster that has iManager installed or with the IP
address for Apache-based services.
2 Specify your username and password, specify the tree information, then click Login.
3 Offline the cluster resource that you want to modify.
