Veritas responsefile creation script in Ruby

Started to port my Veritas responsefile creation script to Ruby. It is functional with command line arguments only. Interactive mode will be included shortly.

Veritas CFS GCO VVR main.cf example

In building out a Global CFS cluster using Veritas SFCFS (Cluster File System), with GCO (Global Cluster Option), and VVR (Volume Replicator), I noticed there are not any really good examples except ones for SFRAC. Here is a sample which was put together on Linux. You will have to update your appropriate parts, and add your own application. This uses TIBCO EMS as an example application.

Veritas Python responsefile creation script

Here is a version of my Veritas responsefile creation script ported to Python. Some changes will be done along the way, but this first copy is functional and works well.

VX responsefile script

Here is a link to a formatted version of the VX responsefile script. Updates included in this version.

Scripts

Will be posting links to the formatted code within a few days as time permits. Also some additions to the VX responsefile script which make it aware of more than two nodes. I needed to add this for large CFS clusters and RAC clusters using SFCFS.

SLES 9 network adapter setup

As promised here is the code for the SLES 9 network setup. This will create any missing hwcfg files as well as ifcfg files without having to use Yast which will reset your network.

Life as I know it update

I have finally gotten around to doing some house cleaning which means lots of good scripts to play with. Included are some WanBoot scripts and other automated install scripts for both Kickstart and Autoyast. As SLES 9 does not use ETHTOOL_OPTS I have a nice clean little script that brings it together. Also a new script to create the ifcfg files with all the SLES options in them. Easier than Yast and it wont restart your network ;-)

Will post within the next few days. Also in the process of automating Solaris 8 moves into Solaris 8 branded containers in Solaris 10. Hope to have this wrapped up soon and perhaps it will make someones life a bit easier than mine has been. Noticed today OpenSolaris build 110 is in IPS so I will be reviewing the release notes and perhaps doing an image-update this evening.
