Q: "Managing MC/ServiceGuard NFS A.11.11.03 and A.11.23.02"

[Ulrich Windl]

Hi!

The current version of "Managing MC/ServiceGuard NFS A.11.11.03 and
A.11.23.02" is dated 2004, and it mentions in the limitations (page 9) that
all NFS locks are lost. AFAIK, that no longer true for at least two years.
The version of the toolkit we have is "A.11.31.02". I wonder why there isn't
an updated manual.

I wouldn't complain, but that NFS toolkit bundle sells for about 900$ and what
you get installed is 80kB shell scripts and a very short README...

Regards,
Ulrich

Hi Ulrich,

When I check the latest version of the "Serviceguard NFS Toolkit A.11.31.02,
A.11.11.06, and A.11.23.05 Administrator's Guide: HP-UX 11i v1, v2, and v3"
I see this on the limitations page:

NOTE: Beginning with Serviceguard NFS A.11.11.03 and A.11.23.02, you can
address this limitation by enabling the File Lock Migration feature (see
"Overview of the NFS File Lock Migration Feature").

Regards,

Dave

Dave,

unfortunately I have a call at HP where they exaclty suggested to do the
opposite, namely disable lock migration, because it seems to be broken in the
current ONCplus release.
