DESCRIPTION
The dscfg command controls the Availability Suite configuration by pro‐
viding facilities to initialize, list, format, restore the configura‐
tion database.
OPTIONS
If no options are specified, dscfg displays the current local configu‐
ration location. The dscfg command supports the following options:
-L
Displays the status of the lock controlling access to the configu‐
ration database. If the configuration database is locked, the type
of lock (read or write) is displayed along with the process id of
the process that holds the lock.
-h
Displays the usage message for the dscfg command.
-i
Initializes the configuration database. As it deletes previous or
current configuration information, this option prompts you to con‐
firm the deletion before proceeding.
-p parser_config_file
When used with the -i option, dscfg loads the parser configuration
file into the persistent configuration, it reformats the configura‐
tion database.
-a config_file
Restore the specified config_file into the configuration. This
option does not do any error checking of the file. Use of this
option invalidates the configuration file.
-l
Lists the contents of current configuration database in a format
that is suitable for the -a option. When used in combination with
the -s option, it displays the contents stored in the location
passed to the -s option, but does not set the configuration loca‐
tion.
The options below are for Sun Cluster-configured systems only. group
can be either Sun Cluster device group or as '-' as local devices.
-C group
Display the location of cluster configuration database.
-C group -i
Initializes the configuration database entries that only associated
with group specified. As it deletes previous or current configura‐
tion information, this options prompts you to confirm the deletion
before proceeding.
-C group -p parser_config_file
When used with the -i option, dscfg loads the parser configuration
file into the persistent configuration, it reformats the configura‐
tion database entries that only associated with group specified.
-C group -a config_file
Restore the specified config_file into the configuration database
entries that only associated with group specified. This option
does not do any error checking of the file. Use of this option
invalidates the configuration file.
-C group -l
Lists the contents of current configuration database that is asso‐
ciated with resource group specified.
-C group -s config_file_location
Specifies where the Sun Cluster configuration database resides, the
location has to be DID device.
-D device_group
Checks whether the specified device_group is known by Sun Cluster
and whether it is available on this node. It displays a information
that indicates the device group's status and return values are as
follows,
(use echo $? to retrieve the return value):
1 Device group is in Sun Cluster and is active on this
node;
0 Device group is in Sun Cluster but active on another
node;
-1 Device group is not in Sun Cluster.
USAGE
The dscfg command is typically run from other scripts, such as package
installation scripts, and from dscfgadm(1M). It is not intended for
general use. For uses of dscfg not covered by dscfgadm, please refer to
the Availability Suite Troubleshooting Guide.
