Action by dependency attribute

  • OnlineDependency

[Figure] Example of bring online of resource r1(OnlineDependency attribute of D1 between r1 and r2 is STRONG, OnlineDependency attribute of D2 between r1 and r3 is WEAK.) 

  1. MCCS check the Online Dependency attribute linked to r1.
  2. Child resources, r4 -> r2 -> r1, are brought online in order to hierarchy when initiate resource online of r1 due to attribute of D1 is STRONG.
    (r3 isn't brought online due to attribute of D2 is WEAK.)


  • OfflineDependency


[Figure] Example of take offline of resource r4.(D1의 OfflineDependency attribute of D1 between r2 and r4 is STRONG, OfflineDependency attribute of D2 between r3 and r4 is WEAK.) 

  1. MCCS checks OfflineDependency attribute linked to r4.
  2. Parents resources, r1 -> r2 -> r4, are taken offline in order to hierarchy when initiate resource offline of r4 due to attribute of D1 is D1 STRONG.
    (r3 isn't taken offline due to attribute of D2 is WEAK.)


Resource Critical Attributes

...

  1. On the assumption that the value of RestartLimit is 1 for resource r2, the first failure has occurred.
  2. MCCS will bring online resource r2 again as the value of RestartLimit. 
    At this time, resource r1 which depends on resource r2 will be taken offline.
  3. resource r2 restart.
  4. resource r1 online.
  5. When another failure occurs on resource r2, all of the resource will be taken offline from resource r1 to r3 by order.
  6. Resource r3 will be taken offline.
  7. As a result, resource r2 is considered as failure and all resources in the group is offline status in the node.


When start bring When it restart bring online of a group in a node due to failure, parent resources are taken offline first based on OfflineDependency attribute in the failure node. And then, bring online resources in order to hierarchyresources through the hierarchy..
