Configuring cluster events

The PowerHA® SystemMirror® system is event-driven. An event is a change of status within a cluster. When the Cluster Manager detects a change in cluster status, it executes the designated script to handle the event and initiates any user-defined customized processing.

To configure customized cluster events, you indicate the script that handles the event and any additional processing that should accompany an event. Configuring cluster events describes the procedures for customization of event handling in PowerHA SystemMirror.

Configuring remote notification for cluster events

The remote notification function allows you to direct SMS text-message notifications to any address including your cell phone.

In addition to sending e-mails or SMS messages to your cell phone, remote notification methods can be used to send numeric or alphanumeric pages through a dialer modem, which uses the standard Telocator Alphanumeric Protocol (TAP) protocol.
