Group Membership and Atomic Broadcast configuration files
The following files are required by the VCS communication services for Group
Membership and Atomic Broadcast (GAB).
/etc/gabtab
After installation, the file
/etc/gabtab
contains a
gabconfig
(1M) command
that configures the GAB driver for use.
The file
/etc/gabtab
contains a line that resembles:
/sbin/gabconfig -c -n N
where the
-c
option configures the driver for use and
-n N specifies that the
cluster will not be formed until at least N systems are ready to form the cluster.
N is the number of systems in the cluster.
