Use the syscadm script to configure and administer Adaptive Server resource groups, and their associated resources in Sun Cluster. You can use syscadm to create, remove, or disable the Adaptive Server resource group and its resources. The syscadm script is located in $SYBASE/$SYBASE_ASE/SC-3_0/bin/.
The create option of the script:
Registers required resource types with the Resource Group Manager
For each specified resource group, creates the resource group, creates the specified resources and adds them to the resource group
Establishes dependencies for the Adaptive Server resource on the storage and logical host resources
The remove option in the script removes specified resource groups and their resources.
The unmanage option:
Disables all the resources in the resource group
Brings the resource group to an offline state
Brings the resource group to the unmanaged state
You must be logged in as “root” to
run the syscadm.
syscadm works with an input file called sysc_input_file, which you edit to provide the correct input values for your configuration. The sysc_input_file is located in $SYBASE/$SYBASE_ASE/SC-3_0/etc/.
Make sure the file is not tampered with when you finish
editing the sysc_input_file.
If erroneous values are included in this file, they may affect your
installation. Sybase suggests that you change the permissions on
this file so only System Administrators can edit it.
When editing the sysc_input_file:
Do not include any spaces around “=” in
the “<name>=<value>” entries.
Start comments with #.
Use names that end with 1 to correspond to the primary companion, and 2 to the secondary companion.
