4.4 Customizing Cluster Services Management
Some portions of Novell Cluster Services management can be performed and customized using
virtual XML files that exist on the _admin volume.
The cluster-related virtual XML files (management access points) are created on each server's
_admin volume. These files let you manage the cluster from any node in the cluster. This means that
as long as the cluster is running, you can always access the cluster-related XML virtual files in the
\\cluster/_admin/Novell/Cluster directory.
There are two types of virtual files in the _admin/Novell/Cluster directory, XML files and CMD
files. The XML files are read-only and contain cluster configuration or cluster state information. The
CMD files are write-then-read command files that are used to issue commands to the cluster and
retrieve resulting status.
The following table lists the cluster-related virtual XML files and gives a brief description of each.
