Description

The

SET PARTITION

command sets the characteristics of a named partition. Only

backend partitions may be manipulated with this command; the command must
be entered on the backend where the partition is located.

Use SET PARTITION any time after the partition has been created (either
explicitly by CREATE PARTITION or implicitly by starting a server.) Note
that the command only takes effect after the first server joins a partition. Any
errors encountered at that time will appear as RTR log file entries. Using SET
PARTITION to change the state of the system results in a log file entry.

Parameters

partition-name

The name of the partition being manipulated. This may be specified
as

partition_name

(if the partition name is unique on the node), or as

facility_name:partition_name

.

Qualifiers

/FACILITY=

facility_name

(D)

Determines the facility that the partition command will act on. This is required.

/FAILOVER_POLICY=SHADOW
/FAILOVER_POLICY=STAND_BY (D)

Determines the action to take when the primary partition fails. The default
action is to allow a standby of the primary to become the new primary. Optionally,
RTR can be set to change state so that the secondary becomes primary, and a
standby of the old primary (if any) becomes the new secondary.
