Appendix B Output Logs when Switchover Occurs because of Disaster Recovery

This appendix explains the logs output when switchover occurs due to Disaster Recovery.

Information relating to the export or import process for L-Platform templates and L-Platform configurations is output to the following log when information is collected for Disaster Recovery switching, or when switching due to the occurrence of a disaster.

Log Output Destination

[Windows Manager]: Installation_folder\RCXCFMG\logs\vsys_dr_log

[Linux Manager]: /var/opt/FJSVcfmg/logs/vsys_dr_log

Log Output Format

The contents are output in one of the following formats:

Format 1: date error-level message
Format 2: date error-level message-ID message

When an error has occurred, the log is output in the format 2 with the error level "ERROR".

L-Platforms that require action after Disaster Recovery switchover

If information for switchover is collected while an L-Platform is being deployed or when being reconfigured, and this information is used for the switch, L-Platform information for which resources do not exist may be restored.

If this occurs, the rcxrecovery extracts the information for L-Platforms that may not have resources and output to the format 1 log.

Output message details are shown below.

Actions after performing Disaster Recovery

After performing Disaster Recovery, check vsys_dr_log to see if the logs shown in "L-Platforms that require action after Disaster Recovery switchover" are output.

If the logs shown in "L-Platforms that require action after Disaster Recovery switchover" are output, take the following actions according to the unfinished process indicated by the "Processing" item even if it is displayed on the L-Platform management window.

SUBSCRIBING

The L-Platform was being deployed when it was exported.

What to check	Check if the L-Platform is displayed on the resource management window.
Pattern 1	Condition	It is displayed on the resource management window.
	Action	It was successfully deployed after the export. Use the deployed L-Platform as it is.
Pattern 2	Condition	It is not displayed on the resource management window.
	Action	The deployment process was not completed successfully after the export. Perform the following procedure: Using the cfmg_deletesysdata command, delete the L-Platform. Refer to "12.3 cfmg_deletesysdata (Unnecessary Data Deletion)" in the "Reference Guide (Command/XML) CE". Deploy an L-Platform again.

RECONFIGURING

The L-Platform was during a reconfiguration such as adding or deleting servers or disks, or changing server details when it was exported.

When its servers or disks have been added or deleted.

What to check	On the resource management window, check if the configuration of the servers and their disks agrees with the L-Platform management window.
Pattern 1	Condition	The configuration of servers or disks agrees, and servers or disks have been added.
Pattern 1	Action	Adding servers or disks succeeded after the export. Use the L-Platform as it is.
Pattern 2	Condition	The configuration of servers or disks agrees, and servers or disks have been deleted.
Pattern 2	Action	Deleting servers or disks was not completed successfully after the export. Delete servers or disks again by a reconfiguration.
Pattern 3	Condition	The configuration of servers or disks does not agree, and servers or disks have been added.
Pattern 3	Action	Adding servers or disks was not completed successfully after the export. Perform the following procedure: Using the cfmg_deletesysdata command, delete the servers or disks that have been added. Refer to "12.3 cfmg_deletesysdata (Unnecessary Data Deletion)" in the "Reference Guide (Command/XML) CE". Add servers or disks again.
Pattern 4	Condition	The configuration of servers or disks does not agree, and servers or disks have been deleted.
Pattern 4	Action	Deleting servers or disks succeeded after the export. Perform the following procedure: Using the cfmg_deletesysdata command, delete the servers or disks that have been deleted. Refer to "12.3 cfmg_deletesysdata (Unnecessary Data Deletion)" in the "Reference Guide (Command/XML) CE".

When server details, the L-Platform name, server names, or boot priorities have been changed.

What to check	Compare the resource management window and the L-Platform management window to check if the management information of the L-Platform agrees. On the resource management window, the L-Platform name is displayed in the L-Platform comment field and server names are in the L-Server comment fields.
Pattern 1	Condition	The management information agrees.
Pattern 1	Action	The reconfiguration such as changing server details succeeded after the export. Use the L-Platform as it is.
Pattern 2	Condition	The management information does not agree.
Pattern 2	Action	The reconfiguration such as changing server details was not completed successfully after the export. Reconfigure it again.

UNSUBSCRIBING

The L-Platform was being unsubscribed when it was exported.

What to check	Check if the L-Platform is displayed on the resource management window.
Pattern 1	Condition	It is displayed on the resource management window.
Pattern 1	Action	The unsubscription was not completed successfully after the export. Unsubscribe it again.
Pattern 2	Condition	It is not displayed on the resource management window.
Pattern 2	Action	The unsubscription succeeded after the export. Perform the following procedure: Using the cfmg_deletesysdata command, delete the L-Platform. Refer to "12.3 cfmg_deletesysdata (Unnecessary Data Deletion)" in the "Reference Guide (Command/XML) CE".
