cmhaltpkg performs a manual halt of high availability package(s) running on Serviceguard clusters. To stop a package, a user must either be superuser.
This command may be run on any node within the cluster and may operate on any package within the cluster. If the -n option is specified, the package will only be halted if it is currently running on that node. If the -n option is not specified, the package will be halted regardless of where it is currently running. When a package is halted, package switching is disabled for that package.
Options
• -n node_name: Acts only on a specific node. If the package is not running on the specified node, it will not be halted.
• -v: Verbose output will be displayed.
Example
A sequence of cmhaltpkg and cmrunpkg commands may be used to move a package from one node to another. For example, the package may be halted on one node and then run on a new node, provided that the package is enabled for the new node. To move package package1 to node node2, do the following:
# cmhaltpkg package1 # cmrunpkg -n node2 package1 # cmmodpkg -e package1 (to enable package switching, if desired)
