same as /etc/rc.config.d/syslog-ng and the various settings are described there. If this file is not
present on your system, refer to /opt/dsau/newconfig/etc/rc.config.d/syslog-ng When running the
wizard additional times, default values are read from /etc/rc.config.d/syslog-ng.
SERVICEGUARD AUTOMATION FEATURES
When using the consolidation logging tools in a Serviceguard cluster, Serviceguard 11.17 or later is
required for certain automated configuration actions to be supported. Specifically:
• When adding and removing packages, the syslog-ng configuration files are automatically
updated to track the package and perform the necessary package-log consolidation
• When adding new members to the cluster, syslog-ng is automatically configured for use on the
new member
For versions of Serviceguard earlier than 11.17, tracking cluster state changes will require manual inter-
vention and management of the configuration files.
NETWORKING FEATURES
When using TCP with ssh port forwarding, port forwarding is configured on the client side. If the client
loses its connection to the consolidation server, the client will retry to establish the connection. The fre-
quency with which to retry is controlled by variables defined in /etc/rc.config.d/syslog-ng.
syslog-ng’s retry timer is controlled via the time_reopen parameter set in /etc/syslog-ng.conf.client.
See the syslog-ng documentation for details at: /opt/dsau/doc/syslog-ng.
OPTIONS
-f | --file filename
Reads a list of keyword:value pairs from filename that are required to configure log consolida-
tion. The format is the same as the /etc/rc.config.d/syslog-ng file. The various settings are
described in that file’s heaader.
-h | --help | -?
Displays help on clog_wizard command options.
-V | --version
Displays current version of the product.
On Package-Creation Errors
When running the wizard in a Serviceguard cluster to define a highly available server configuration, the
wizard creates a package. If there are any errors during package creation, the messages from the
package-creation commands are displayed. Refer to the log files in the clog package directory for detailed
information on any errors. For example:
# . /etc/cmcluster.conf
followed by # cat
$SGCONF/clog/clog.log
. Refer to /var/adm/syslog/syslog.log (on HP-UX) or /var/log/messages
(on Linux) for additional information on the package logs.
If the wizard encounters other errors, it will restore the system configuration back to its initial state.
For VXvM Users
For Serviceguard clusters, the wizard supports package creation using only LVM-based volume groups.
For VXvM users, the simplest workaround is to allow the wizard to configure using LVM and after it’s
finished, modify the resulting package in /etc/cmcluster/clog/ to use VXvM.
