Is it possible to change the RestartLimit for an indvidual resouce?

[GeorgeC]

Hello all,

Environment:

rsd9# uname -a
AIX rsd9 3 5 00C07C544C00
EngineVersion       5.0.30.0
 

I have an resource of type "APPLICATION". Is it possible to change the restartlimit of the individual resource rather than the resource type  (where I would be change it for all resources of type APPLICATION)?

I would like to set the restartlimit attribute to 2. In other words, I would like for the resource to try and restart twice before either getting marked as faulted or causing a cluster failover.

Here is the hares -display for the resource that I am trying to change.

rsd9# hares -display app_esp

Yes use:

 hares -override app_esp RestartLimit
 hares -modify app_esp RestartLimit 2

Great. Thanks Mike!

You can override some resource type static attributes and assign them resource-specific values. 

Appendix C of VCS Admin Guide contains a table with Resource Type attributes, indicating which ones can be overriden. RestartLimit is one of them:

RestartLimit

(user-defined)

Note: This attribute can

be overridden.

To override a type’s static attribute:

hares -override <resource> <static_attribute>

Followed by changing attribute for the resource:

hares -modify <resource> <attr> <value>
