Initial Configuration Files

Configuration records for a node's resources are included in the node configuration file. When you start the SNAplus2 software, the configuration file /etc/opt/sna/sna_node.cfg is used as the initial definition of the node's configuration. SNAplus2 uses the information in this file to define the resources available when the node is started and to start any resources that you have specified as being initially active.

Configuration records for domain resources are included in the domain configuration file, instead of in individual node configuration files. For information about the distinction between domain resources and node resources, refer to the HP-UX SNAplus2 Administration Guide.

When you start the SNAplus2 software on the master server, the domain configuration file /etc/opt/sna/sna_domn.cfg is used as the initial definition of SNAplus2 domain resources.

If a file cannot be opened or if it contains information that is not valid, the SNAplus2 node will not start. For more information about starting SNAplus2, refer to the HP-UX SNAplus2 Administration Guide.
