Distribute a load on a cluster

For example, if you have eight file systems and four nodes, designating two file systems per node as the primary is beneficial. The first node that mounts a file system becomes the primary for that file system.

You can also use the fsclustadm to designate a SFCFS primary. The fsclustadm setprimary mount point can be used to change the primary. This change to the primary is not persistent across unmounts or reboots. The change is in effect as long as one or more nodes in the cluster have the file system mounted. The primary selection policy can also be defined by a VCS attribute associated with the SFCFS mount resource.
