LifeKeeper Configuration

The Recovery Kit for HULFT can perform the following configuration tasks from the LifeKeeper GUI. The following two tasks are described in this section, as they are unique to the Recovery Kit for HULFT.

• Creating a resource hierarchy
  Create a resource hierarchy on the primary node
• Extending the resource hierarchy
  Extend the resource hierarchy from the primary node to the backup node

See Administrator Tasks for other operations

*Note: Throughout the rest of this section, we explain how to configure your Recovery Kit by selecting certain tasks from the Edit menu of the LifeKeeper GUI. You can also select each configuration task from the toolbar. You can also right‑click a global resource in the Resource Hierarchy Tree (left-hand pane) of the status display window to display the same drop‑down menu choices as the Edit menu. This, of course, is only an option when a hierarchy already exists.

You can also right-click on a resource instance in the Resource Hierarchy Table (right-hand pane) of the status display window to perform all the configuration tasks, except Creating a Resource Hierarchy, depending on the state of the server and the particular resource.
