Before configuring the service group for Sybase
Before you configure the Sybase service group, you must meet the following prerequisites:
Verify that VCS is installed and configured on all nodes in the cluster where you plan to configure the service group. For more information on configuring VCS see the Cluster Server Configuration and Upgrade Guide.
Caution:
In Sybase cluster edition, the Sybase agent assumes that the is set to vcs. When Sybase instances are configured under VCS control, the installer automatically sets the to vcs. If the Sybase server instances are configured manually under VCS control or if the quorum device is rebuilt in 'native' mode, ensure that the is set to vcs.
Verify that Sybase is installed and configured identically on all nodes in the cluster.
Verify that the Cluster Server agent for Sybase is installed on all nodes in the cluster.
Verify the type definition for Cluster Server agent for Sybase is imported into the VCS engine.
Note:
If you use the VCS Cluster Manager (Java Console) to configure attributes, the passwords are automatically encrypted; you need not encrypt them manually.
Caution:
If you do not set the Quorum_dev attribute for Sybase Cluster Edition, the Sybase agent does not perform the qrmutil-based checks. This error in configuration may lead to undesirable results. For example, if qrmutil returns failure pending, the agent does not panic the system.
