Typically, the value of a static attribute of a resource type applies to all resources of the type. You can override the value of a static attribute for a specific resource without affecting the value of that attribute for other resources of that type. In this chapter, the description of each agent attribute indicates whether the attribute's values can be overridden.
Users can override the values of static attributes in two ways:
By explicitly defining the attribute in a resource definition in configuration file (main.cf) when VCS is not running.
By using the hares command from the command line with the -override option when VCS is running.
The values of the overridden attributes may be displayed using the hares -display command. You can remove the overridden values of static attributes by using the hares -undo_override option from the command line.
See the Cluster Server Administrator's Guide for additional information about overriding the values of static attributes.
