Testing VCS Agents

VCS agents can be tested using two methods:

• The VCS engine (see Using the VCS Engine Process)
• The AgentServer utility (see Using the AgentServer Utility)

Before testing an agent, make sure you have completed the following tasks:

  Built the agent binary and put it in the directory $VCS_HOME/bin/resource_type.

  Installed script entry points in the directory $VCS_HOME/bin/resource_type.

And, if you are using the VCS engine process to test the agent, make sure you have:

  Defined the resource type in types.cf, defined the resources in main.cf, and restarted the engine. You may define the new type and resources using the commands listed in the VERITAS Cluster Server User's Guide.
