Functional
This problem is normally caused by the BCC Administrator user not having file system rights to the
cluster administration files. See
Credentials" on page

9.14 A Resource Does Not Migrate to a Peer
Cluster
If you cannot migrate a resource from one cluster to a peer cluster, the problem might be caused by
one of the following conditions:
The resource has not been BCC-enabled.
Remote clusters cannot communicate.

make disks visible. One reason for this is that the script might have a single % character in it

characters.

9.15 A Resource Cannot Be Brought Online

If you cannot bring a BCC-enabled resource online, it is possible the resource might be set as
secondary. If the NCS:BCC State attribute is equal to 1, the resource is set to secondary and cannot
be brought online.
On the resource object, change the NCS:BCC State attribute to 0 to set the resource to the primary
state. Also, increment the NCS:Revision attribute one number so that Novell Cluster Services
recognizes that the resource properties have been updated. See
how to modify object attributes.

9.16 Dumping Syslog on NetWare

The command
log +dump syslog
command has limited use because only the last few entries of the log can be viewed.
You can use the
log +copy syslog
Edit utility to view it. The output file that syslog is copied to is displayed after the command is
executed.
Enter
at the NetWare server console to get additional information on syslog.
