Infrastructure service groups

This section is applicable only if you are configuring application monitoring on a VMware virtual machine.

As part of configuring the application, the Arctera High Availability Configuration wizard:

  • Configures application specific service groups and resources.

  • Configures the VCS infrastructure service group (VCSInfraSG).

VCSInfraSG includes a resource called VCSNotifySinkRes. The type of this resource is Process. VCSNotifySinkRes configures and administers the notify_sink process on the guest. The notify_sink process sends the details about service groups and its attributes to the Arctera High Availability Console. This information is used for reporting purpose and is displayed on the Dashboard.

Note:

VCSInfraSG is an internal service group. You must not add or delete resources from this service group.

The following are the VCSInfraSG notes:

  • Before you configure the application for monitoring, ensure that SSO is configured between the Arctera High Availability Console and the guest. If SSO is not configured, VCSInfraSG fails to come online.

  • If VCSInfraSG or VCSNotifySinkRes faults, ensure that SSO is configured between the Arctera High Availability Console and the guest. Clear the faults and bring the resource online again.

  • VCSInfraSG or VCSNotifySinkRes must not be taken offline because it affects the information displayed on the Dashboard.
