  1. Check for and remove any previous version of MC/ServiceGuard NFS for Linux:

    Query the rpm database for the NFS Toolkit:

    # rpm -qa |grep nfstoolkit

    If any part of the NFS Toolkit is installed, the grep returns the version number.

    Erase older versions of the NFS Toolkit, if needed:

    # rpm -e nfstoolkit<release_version>

  2. Use the Redhat Package Management rpm command to install the MC/ServiceGuard NFS file set. Mount the MC/ServiceGuard for Linux CD, then issue the following commands :

    # cd /mnt/cdrom/2.4.2/rpms

    # rpm -i nfstoolkit-A.01.00-0.product.redhat.i386.rpm

    The files will be installed in the /usr/local/cmcluster/nfstoolkit and /usr/lib directories. The following files are part of the toolkit:

    • /usr/local/cmcluster/nfstoolkit/README. Description of the tool kit contents.

    • /usr/local/cmcluster/nfstoolkit/hanfs.sh. The NFS control script template that starts and stops NFS daemons and exports and unexports file systems.

    • /usr/local/cmcluster/nfstoolkit/nfs.mon. The NFS monitor script.

    • /usr/bin/sync_rmtab. Remote mount table synchronization binary code.

  3. Run cmmakepkg command to generate a package configuration file and package control script template to the /usr/local/cmcluster/nfstoolkit directory with the following command:

    # cd /usr/local/cmcluster/nfstoolkit

    # cmmakepkg -p pkg.conf

    # cmmakepkg -s pkg.cntl

  4. Create a directory for your package files, for example:

    # mkdir /usr/local/cmcluster/<pkg_name>

  5. Issue the following command to copy the MC/ServiceGuard NFS template files to the newly created package directory:

    # cp /usr/local/cmcluster/nfstoolkit/* /usr/local/cmcluster/<pkg_name>

Copying the Template Files

If you will run only one MC/ServiceGuard NFS package in your MC/ServiceGuard cluster, technically you do not have to copy the template files. Though, it is recommended that you keep your template file in its original form for future use. If you will run multiple MC/ServiceGuard NFS packages, each package must have its own package directory, package configuration file and control scripts.

For each MC/ServiceGuard NFS package you plan to run, make a copy of all the package files including the package configuration file (pkg.conf), package control script (pkg.cntl), NFS Control Script (hanfs.sh), and NFS monitor script (nfs.mon). You can rename the package control script with a package specific identification, such as pkg1.conf and pkg1.cntl.

NOTE: pkg.cntl and hanfs.sh should be in the same directory. Do not rename the hanfs.sh and nfs.mon. These files are hard coded in the two control scripts.
