Configure Unload Scripts - Novell NETWARE 6-DOCUMENTATION Manual

Configure Unload Scripts

Novell Cluster Services Overview and Installation
3 2
Depending on your cluster application or resource, you can add an unload
script to specify how the application or resource should terminate. An unload
script is not required by all resources or applications, but it can ensure that
during a failback or manual migration, a resource unloads before it loads on
another node. Consult your application vendor or documentation to determine
if you should add commands to unload the resource.
Unload scripts are automatically created for disk pools when you cluster
enable them. Because of this it might not be necessary to configure or change
the load script for a pool.
Using ConsoleOne
Select the Unload Script tab on the resource property page.
1
Edit or add the necessary commands to the script to unload the intended
2
resource on the server.
You can use any commands used in a .NCF file run from the server
console. If you don't know which commands to add, consult the
documentation for the application or resource you want to unload.
Specify a timeout value and click Apply to save the script.
3
The default is 600 seconds, or 10 minutes. The timeout value determines
how much time the script is given to complete. If the script does not
complete within the specified time, the resource becomes comatose.
