NAME

recovcmd − Set variables affecting the recovery module of the kernel. 

SYNOPSIS

recovcmd  -[options]

OPTIONS

−absonTurn on absolute ping intervals for recovery. 

−absoffTurn off absolute ping intervals for recovery. 

INTRODUCTION

This command changes variables affecting the behavior of he recovery system.  The only variable so far is the absolute pinging variable.  If it’s turned on, this means that pinging of servers occurs at absolute intervals, unaffected by how long the actual pinging takes.  If turned off, then the pinging takes place 30 seconds after the last pinging finished, no matter how long that took.  Turning on absolute pinging should prevent client pinging from becoming synchronized by server reboots. 

KEYWORDS

recovery, ping
