Synopsis
- setrgysvrtype { –master | –standby | –backup | –slave }
Description
In your Rational ClearCase network environment you can designate
a host as a standby registry server host. The standby registry server host
can be promoted to perform the duty of the primary registry server host in
the event the primary registry server host fails.
Executed on a standby registry server host, the setrgysvrtype command
promotes the standby registry server host to the primary registry server host.
Once promoted, the host immediately functions as a primary registry server.
The command can later demotes the same host to a standby registry server host
when the primary registry server is back in service. The demotion of a primary
registry server host to a standby registry server host is allowed only if
the host has been promoted from a standby registry server host.
The command can also be used to set a backup or a slave registry server
host.
Restrictions
Mastership
(Replicated VOBs only) No mastership restrictions.
Options and arguments
- Default
- None.
- –master
- Configure the local registry server host to a primary registry server
host if the host is currently a standby registry server host.
- –standby
- Configure the local registry server host to a standby registry server
host. When executed on a non-primary registry server host, it prepares the
host for the possibility of the promotion to a primary registry server host.
- –backup
- Configure the local registry server host to a backup registry server host.
The backup registry server host takes snapshots of the ClearCase registry
files on the primary registry server host and the primary registry host's
client list.
- –slave
- Configure the local registry server host to a slave registry server host.
A slave registry server host is synonymous with a typical client host. It
does not change the client host's functionality in any way in support of future
enhancement.
Note: You can switch between the following three types in any way at will:
Examples
- On a standby registry server host, make the host the new primary registry
host.
