Displaying Object Information
Use hares to display resource information:
hares –display resource
hares –list condition
hares –value resource attribute
hares –state resource
Use hagrp to display service group information:
hagrp –display group
hagrp –list condition
hagrp –value group attribute
hagrp –state group Getting help:
Command-line syntax:
– ha_command –help
– man ha_command

Lab 5: Using the VCS Simulator
1. Start the Simulator Java GUI.
hasimgui &
2. Add a cluster.
3. Copy the preconfigured *.cf
files to the new directory.
4. Start the cluster from the
Simulator GUI.
5. Launch the Cluster Manager
Java Console.
6. Log in using the VCS
account oper with password
