In Veritas Application Director, the ResFaultPolicy
resource attribute controls how resources are to be handled in the event they become faulted. Each resource within a service group can have a policy. By default, Veritas Application Director assigns resources the FaultPropagateAll policy, whereby a faulting resource causes the entire service group and all resources to fault.
Possible values (or policies) for the resource attribute ResFaultPolicy
include:
The agent does not call the clean
entry point.
Veritas Application Director marks the resource as in the ADMIN_WAIT state. When the fault is removed and the ADMIN_WAIT state is cleared, Veritas Application Director fails over the service group.
The agent calls the clean
entry point.
Veritas Application Director attempts to restart the resource according to the value of the RestartLimit
resource attribute. VAD does not propagate the fault to other resources in the service group.
The agent calls the clean
entry point.

.
Veritas Application Director takes the entire service group offline and attempts to fail over the service group, based on the value of the group attribute GrpFaultPolicy
