About Veritas Storage Foundation and High Availability SolutionsChanges introduced in 6.0.323DomainFailurePolicyThis attribute specifies the list of master domains and the failure policy of masterdomains for a guest domain. The key of the attribute is the name of the masterdomain and the value for the key of the attribute is the failure policy enacted bythe master domain on the guest domain. The failure policy will be enacted by themaster domain in the event of loss of the master domain. The possible values forthe failure policy are ignore, stop, reset, and panic. For more information on thefailure policies of the master domain, refer to the ldm(1M) man page.By default, the DomainFailurePolicy attribute is set with master domain as‘primary’ and failure policy as ‘stop’.The DomainFailurePolicy attribute need to be set to a non-default value only whenthe guest domain is provided with storage and network services from more thanone I/O domain and the guest domain need to be made available even when theprimary domain is rebooted or shut down for maintenance.It is highly recommended to set the same failure policy for a master domain forall the LDom resources (guest domains) configured on a physical system. If theattribute is set to different failure policies for the same master domain for differentLDom resources, then the agent ensures that the failure policy with the highestpriority is set on the master domain. For more information on failure policypriority, see Notes for the DomainFailurePolicy attribute.You can change the attribute value dynamically when the LDom resource is online.The LDom agent ensures the changed failure policy is set on the master domainin the order of priority dynamically, without the need to bring down the LDomresource. For more information on the behavior of this attribute, see the Notesfor the DomainFailurePolicy attribute section.Type-dimension: string-associationDefault: {primary = “stop”}Example: {primary= ignore, secondary = “stop”}. In this example, primary andsecondary are the master domains from where storage and network services areexported to the guest domain.Notes for the DomainFailurePolicy attributeWhen the DomainFailurePolicy attribute is set, the LDom agent sets the masterdomain of the guest domain with the key of the attribute and the value of the keyas the failure policy of the guest domain.The LDom agent uses the following command to set the master for the guestdomain:# ldm set-domain master=master-domain guestldom
