Table: Response file variables specific to migrate between fencing configurations lists the response file variables that specify the required information to migrate between fencing configurations for VCS.

Table: Response file variables specific to migrate between fencing configurations

Variable

List or Scalar

Description

CFG {fencing_option}

Scalar

Specifies the I/O fencing configuration mode.

  • 1 - Coordination Point Server-based I/O fencing

  • 2 - Coordinator disk-based I/O fencing

  • 3 - Disabled mode

  • 4 - Fencing migration when the cluster is online

(Required)

CFG {fencing_reusedisk}

Scalar

If you migrate to disk-based fencing or to server-based fencing that uses coordinator disks, specifies whether to use free disks or disks that already belong to a disk group.

  • 0 - Use free disks as coordinator disks

  • 1 - Use disks that already belong to a disk group as coordinator disks (before configuring these as coordinator disks, installer removes the disks from the disk group that the disks belonged to.)

(Required if your fencing configuration uses coordinator disks)

CFG {fencing_ncp}

Scalar

Specifies the number of new coordination points to be added.

(Required)

CFG {fencing_ndisks}

Scalar

Specifies the number of disks in the coordination points to be added.

(Required if your fencing configuration uses coordinator disks)

CFG {fencing_disks}

List

Specifies the disks in the coordination points to be added.

(Required if your fencing configuration uses coordinator disks)

CFG {fencing_dgname}

Scalar

Specifies the disk group that the coordinator disks are in.

(Required if your fencing configuration uses coordinator disks)

CFG {fencing_scsi3_disk_policy}

Scalar

Specifies the disk policy that the disks must use.

(Required if your fencing configuration uses coordinator disks)

CFG {fencing_cps}

List

Specifies the CP servers in the coordination points to be added.

(Required for server-based fencing)

CFG {fencing_cps_vips}{$vip1}

List

Specifies the virtual IP addresses or the fully qualified host names of the new CP server.

(Required for server-based fencing)

CFG {fencing_cps_ports}{$vip}

Scalar

Specifies the port that the virtual IP of the new CP server must listen on. If you do not specify, the default value is 14250.

(Optional)

CFG {servers_to_remove}

List

Specifies the CP servers in the coordination points to be removed.

CFG {disks_to_remove}

List

Specifies the disks in the coordination points to be removed

CFG{donotreconfigurevcs}

Scalar

Defines if you need to re-configure VCS.

(Optional)

CFG{donotreconfigurefencing}

Scalar

defines if you need to re-configure fencing.

(Optional)
