             ‑‑ipaddress=10.10.10.194

# dismount the NCP volume
ignore_error ncpcon dismount $NCP_VOLUME

Novell AFP

Novell CIFS

ignore_error novcifs --remove 
             ‑‑vserver=.CN=NCS1_P1_SERVER.O=novell.T=TREE-188.
             ‑‑ip‑addr=<virtual_server_ip_address>

3.6.3 File Access Protocol Commands for Monitor Scripts

This section provides examples of the Novell AFP commands for NSS pool cluster resource monitor scripts on Linux.

If AFP is enabled as an advertising protocol on an NSS pool cluster resource on NetWare, the AFP monitoring command is added to the new monitor script for the resource on OES.

If CIFS is enabled as an advertising protocol on an NSS pool cluster resource on NetWare, the CIFS monitoring command is added to the new monitor script for the resource on OES.

The default Time-out value for the Monitor script is set to 6 minutes.

Monitoring is disabled while the cluster is in mixed mode. Monitoring can be enabled for the resource after the final cluster conversion is complete. See Enabling Monitoring and Configuring the Monitor Script in the OES 2018 SP2: OES Cluster Services for Linux Administration Guide.

NetWare

The Monitor script feature is not available in Novell Cluster Services for NetWare.

Linux

Protocol

Script Command for Load Scripts

NCP

exit_on_error ncpcon volume V_D

Novell AFP

exit_on_error afpstat

Novell CIFS

exit_on_error rcnovell-cifs monitor
