Steps performed by the gc_shutdown.sh script - assure_mimix - 6.0

The gc_shutdown.sh script performs the following actions:

• Stops all configured user applications protected in an Assure MIMIX for AIX clustered environment on the node where the AIX “shutdown” command is executed.

• Stop all resources (such as, Service IP Address) if configured with the user’s application on the node where the AIX “shutdown” command is executed.

• Assure MIMIX DR for AIX replication group associated with the user’s application on both cluster nodes.

• Stops cluster services on the node where the AIX “shutdown” command is executed.

To have “/usr/EchoCluster/bin/AIX/gc_shutdown.sh” execute when the AIX “shutdown”command is executed, it must be called from “/etc/rc.shutdown.”

For example, add the following to /etc/rc.shutdown.

#!/bin/ksh
/usr/EchoCluster/bin/AIX/gc_shutdown.sh
if(($? != 0))
then
   printf "ERROR: gc_shutdown.sh failed, aborting the shutdown sequence.\n"
   printf "INFO: See log file /usr/EchoCluster/log/gc_shutdown.sh.out for details. \n"
  exit 1
