Setting Up I/O Fencing

Learn how to set up I/O Fencing.

Sybase recommends that your I/O fencing use persistent DSF on HP-UX 11.31.
Note: HPIA I/O fencing does not support the HP VM.
  1. Run qrmutil to confirm that a disk is I/O fencing capable. See Chapter 14, “System Changes,” in the Cluster User Guide for information about running qrmutil.
  2. Before you enable I/O fencing, make sure you have read and write permissions for all database and quorum devices. Use the UNIX chown, chgrp, and chmod commands to correct the permissions if needed.
