The QCST_AD_RESTORE high availability policy streamlines resource attribute updates when restoring monitored resources. Normally, resources with a monitored resource entry (MRE) in the cluster administrative domain which are restored are immediately updated to match the attribute values in the cluster administrative domain, essentially ignoring the restore operation. The QCST_AD_RESTORE policy specifies which resources or resource types will honor restore operations in the specified cluster administrative domain. When the QCST_AD_RESTORE policy is specified the restored version of the attribute values will be propagated to other nodes in the cluster administrative domain.

...

  • The name of the administrative domain the policy will apply to.

  • The names of the resource type or types that the policy will create resource entries for.

Info

Note: Depending on the resource type, a list of libraries may be required for the policy.

...

LIB(*ALL) indicates that the resource type can be created in any library. *BLANK indicating that the resource type does not require any library. LIB(NAME1 NAME2...) using only resources contained in the specified libraries.

Note

Important:

  • If LIB(*ALL) is specified with the RSCTYPE(*ALL) policy qualifier, the policy will cover all resource types, whether or not the resource type requires a library.

Example 1 - Default Policies Created by PowerHA

PowerHA now automatically creates default policies when CFGPCY(*YES) is specified on the Create Cluster Admin Domain (CRTCAD) command. The following lists the example commands to add the same policies in an administrative domain, ADMDMN:

...

This policy specifies that when any resource of the types supported by this policy is currently monitored by the administrative domain, the attribute values from the restore operation are propagated to other nodes in the administrative domain.

Tip

Tip: The CFGPCY(*YES) parameter on CRTCAD also adds policies of type QCST_AD_CREATE and QCST_AD_DELETE.
