Thanks.

cmrunserv
cmrunserv(1m) cmrunserv(1m)
NAME
cmrunserv - run a service from the high availability package run script
SYNOPSIS
cmrunserv [-v] service_name service_command_string
cmrunserv [-v] [-r restarts] service_name service_command_string
cmrunserv [-v] [-R] service_name service_command_string
DESCRIPTION
cmrunserv is used in the high availability package run script to run a service.
To start package's service, a user must either be superuser(UID=0), or have an access policy of FULL_ADMIN allowed in the cluster configu-
ration file. See access policy in cmquerycl(1m) or cmmakepkg(1m).
If the service process dies, cmrunserv updates the status of the service to down. The cluster software will recognize the change in status
and execute the normal package recovery sequence. This includes executing the package halt script, determining if the package can be run
on a different node, and, if so, executing the package run script on the new node.
Should the service_command be halted by the cmhaltserv command, a SIGTERM signal will be sent to the process. This executable or shell
script should be able to handle a SIGTERM signal and execute a graceful shutdown performing any cleanup necessary. If the process ignores
the SIGTERM, a SIGKILL will be sent to the process. If a SIGKILL is sent, the process will die immediately and will be unable to perform
any cleanup.
Options
cmrunserv supports the following options.
-v Verbose output will be displayed.
-r restarts
Indicates that the service should be automatically restarted by the cluster software if it fails, without halting the
package. restarts indicates how many times the service may fail before the package should be halted.
-R Indicates the service should be restarted an unlimited number of times if it fails.
service_name
Name of the service as it exists in the package configuration information.
service_command_string
Process string to be started. This includes the process name and any arguments necessary for the process to run. The
process name must be a full path, may be either a command name or a shell script, and must be executable.
RETURN VALUE
cmrunserv returns the following values:
0 Successful completion.
1 Command failed.
EXAMPLES
To run the service command string /var/opt/db/database1 under the service name db1, do the following:
# Run the process /var/opt/db/database1
cmrunserv db1 /var/opt/db/database1
This line should only be executed within a package run script.
