Release 10.1A: OpenEdge Data Management:
Database Administration

Upper limit on the number of packages for HPUX 32 bit and 64 bit

There is an upper limit on the number of packages that can be registered with the cluster manager. One package will be associated with the database. The Watch Dog, BIW, AIW, and every APW will each be associated with an additional package. For example, if the database is enabled as a cluster resource along with an AIW, a BIW, a WDOG, and three APWs, a total of 7 resources will be registered with the cluster manager. PROCLUSTER allows for the creation of files and directories necessary for registration even if the limit is exceeded. It is important to review your configuration details and verify that the maximum number of packages for the cluster will not be exceeded prior to enabling the database as a cluster resource.

If you exceed the limit, adjust the MAX PACKAGE LIMIT, and you can then fix your database resource using one of the following methods:

Use the cmapplyconf utility provided by MC/Service Guard to register the packages manually.
Note: The package names can be found in <dbname>.uuid file.
Disable the database and then re-enable with the desired packages. PROCLUSTER will ensure automated registration.
