Rights Reserved SunU, Revision E Resource Consumer Plug-ins RCM scripts are run from the directories in the order given in Table E-1 (top to bottom) Table E-1 RCM Script Locations Directory Location Script Type /etc/rcm/scripts Scripts for specific systems /usr/platform/‘uname -i‘/lib/rcm/scripts Scripts for a specific hardware implementation /usr/platform/‘uname -m‘/lib/rcm/scripts Scripts for a specific hardware class, such as sun4u in the case of Sun Fire midrange servers /usr/lib/rcm/scripts Scripts for any hardware If a script name appears in multiple directories, only the first occurrence of the script is used E-4 Sun Proprietary: Internal Use Only Sun Fire™ High-End Server Maintenance and Administration Copyright 2004 Sun Microsystems, Inc All Rights Reserved SunU, Revision E RCM Script Commands RCM Script Commands The following list of RCM commands are mandatory in a RCM script: ● scriptinfo – This command is invoked to gather the script information ● register – This command is invoked to allow a script to specify the resources it uses with the RCM script The script has to supply all the resources of its interest to the RCM script using the name-value pair rcm_resource_name ● resourceinfo resourcename – This command is invoked to get the usage information about the given resourcename An example resource name might be /dev/dsk/c0t1d0s0 for a disk drive partition The next list of RCM commands are optional in an RCM script: ● queryremove resourcename – This command is invoked to query the script if the script can release the given resourcename successfully The script does not actually release the resource The script might indicate that it would not able to release the resource if the resource is critical for the service represented by the script ● preremove resourcename – This command is sent to a script prior to an attempt to remove the given resourcename In response to this command the script might either release the resource from the service represented by the script or indicate that it cannot release the resource if the resource is critical for the service represented by the script ● postremove resourcename – This command is sent to a script after the given resourcename has been removed ● undoremove resourcename – This command is sent to a script to undo what was done in the previous preremove command for the given resourcename The script might bring the state of the resource to the same state the resource was in when the script received the preremove command for the specified resource Sun Proprietary: Internal Use Only Reconfiguration Coordination Manager (RCM) Copyright 2004 Sun Microsystems, Inc All Rights Reserved SunU, Revision E E-5 RCM Script Commands When you dynamically remove a device, the RCM daemon runs the script’s register command to gather the list of resources (device names) that are identified in the script The script’s queryremove and preremove commands are also run prior to removing the resource if the script’s registered resources are affected by the dynamic remove operation Finally, the script’s postremove command is run if the remove operation succeeds However, if the remove operation fails, the RCM daemon runs the script’s undoremove command E-6 Sun Proprietary: Internal Use Only Sun Fire™ High-End Server Maintenance and Administration Copyright 2004 Sun Microsystems, Inc All Rights Reserved SunU, Revision E RCM Script Commands RCM Script Example The example following shows an RCM Perl script This script is customized for a tape backup application #! /usr/bin/perl -w # This script registers all tape drives in the system with RCM # When the system attempts to remove a tape drive by DR the script # does the following: # - if the tape drive is not being used for backup,it allows the # DR to continue # - if the tape drive is being used for backup, and when DR is not # forced (RCM_ENV_FORCE=FALSE) it indicates that it cannot release # the tape drive with appropriate error message When forced # (RCM_ENV_FORCE=TRUE) it kills the tape backup application in # order to allow the DR to continue # # This script does not implement the postremove and undoremove # commands since there is nothing to cleanup after DR remove # operation is completed or failed If any cleanup is needed after # the DR removal completed, postremove command needs to # implemented If any cleanup is needed in the event of DR removal # failure, undoremove command needs to be implemented # use strict; my ($cmd, %dispatch); $cmd = shift(@ARGV); # dispatch table for RCM commands %dispatch = ( "scriptinfo" => ˝do_scriptinfo, "register" => ˝do_register, "resourceinfo" => ˝do_resourceinfo, "queryremove" => ˝do_preremove, "preremove" => ˝do_preremove ); if (defined($dispatch{$cmd})) { &{$dispatch{$cmd}}; } else { exit (2); } sub do_scriptinfo { print "rcm_script_version=1\n"; print "rcm_script_func_info=Tape backup appl script for DR\n"; exit (0); } Sun Proprietary: Internal Use Only Reconfiguration Coordination Manager (RCM) Copyright 2004 Sun Microsystems, Inc All Rights Reserved SunU, Revision E E-7 RCM Script Commands sub do_register { my ($dir, $f, $errmsg); $dir = opendir(RMT, "/dev/rmt"); if (!$dir) { $errmsg = "Unable to open /dev/rmt directory: $!"; print "rcm_failure_reason=$errmsg\n"; exit (1); } while ($f = readdir(RMT)) { # ignore hidden files and multiple names for the same device if (($f !~ /^˙/) && ($f =~ /^[0-9]+$/)) { print "rcm_resource_name=/dev/rmt/$f\n"; } } closedir(RMT); exit (0); } sub do_resourceinfo { my ($rsrc, $unit); $rsrc = shift(@ARGV); if ($rsrc =~ /^⁄dev⁄rmt⁄([0-9]+)$/) { $unit = $1; print "rcm_resource_usage_info=Backup Tape Unit Number $unit\n"; exit (0); } else { print "rcm_failure_reason=Unknown tape device!\n"; exit (1); } } sub do_preremove { my ($rsrc); $rsrc = shift(@ARGV); # check if backup application is using this resource # if (the backup application is not running on $rsrc) { # allow the DR to continue # exit (0); #} # # If RCM_ENV_FORCE is FALSE deny the operation # If RCM_ENV_FORCE is TRUE kill the backup application in order E-8 Sun Proprietary: Internal Use Only Sun Fire™ High-End Server Maintenance and Administration Copyright 2004 Sun Microsystems, Inc All Rights Reserved SunU, Revision E RCM Script Commands # to allow the DR operation to proceed # if ($ENV{RCM_ENV_FORCE} eq ’TRUE’) { if ($cmd eq ’preremove’) { # kill the tape backup application } exit (0); } else { # # indicate that the tape drive cannot be released # since the device is being used for backup by the # tape backup application # print "rcm_failure_reason=tape backup in progress pid= \n"; exit (3); } } The expected results of the tape backup application RCM script example follow: ● If you use the cfgadm command and the backup application is not using the tape device, the operation succeeds ● If you use the cfgadm command without the -f option and the backup application is using the tape device, the operation fails with an error message similar to the following: tape backup in progress pid= ● If you use the cfgadm -f command and the backup application is using the tape device, the script stops the backup application and the cfgadm operation succeeds Sun Proprietary: Internal Use Only Reconfiguration Coordination Manager (RCM) Copyright 2004 Sun Microsystems, Inc All Rights Reserved SunU, Revision E E-9 RCM Script Commands Installing a RCM Script The following are instructions for installing a RCM script: Become superuser Copy the script to the appropriate directory as described in Table E-1 on page E-4 For example: # cp SUNW,sample.pl /usr/lib/rcm/scripts Change the user ID and the group ID of the script to the desired values For example: # chown user:group /usr/lib/rcm/scripts/SUNW,sample.pl Send a SIGHUP signal to the RCM daemon # pkill -HUP -x -u root rcm_daemon Removing a RCM Script Following are instructions for removing an RCM script: Become superuser Remove the script from the RCM script directory For example: # rm /usr/lib/rcm/scripts/SUNW,sample.pl Send a SIGHUP signal to the RCM daemon # pkill -HUP -x -u root rcm_daemon E-10 Sun Proprietary: Internal Use Only Sun Fire™ High-End Server Maintenance and Administration Copyright 2004 Sun Microsystems, Inc All Rights Reserved SunU, Revision E RCM Script Commands Testing a RCM Script Following are instructions for testing an RCM script: Set environment variables, such as RCM_ENV_FORCE, on the command-line shell before running your script For example, in the Korn shell, use: $ export RCM_ENV_FORCE=TRUE Test the script by running the script commands manually from the command line For example: $ script-name scriptinfo $ script-name register $ script-name preremove resource-name $ script-name postremove resource-name Ensure that each RCM script command in your script prints appropriate output to stdout Install the script in the appropriate script directory Test the script by initiating a dynamic remove operation: For example, assume your script registers the device, /dev/dsk/c1t0d0s0 Try these commands: $ cfgadm -c unconfigure c1::dsk/c1t0d0 $ cfgadm -f -c unconfigure c1::dsk/c1t0d0 $ cfgadm -c configure c1::dsk/c1t0d0 Sun Proprietary: Internal Use Only Reconfiguration Coordination Manager (RCM) Copyright 2004 Sun Microsystems, Inc All Rights Reserved
