Creating the runserver files

After creating the master and quorum devices, create a runserver file for each instance in the cluster. Later, you will use these files to start the instances.

StepsCreating runserver files for each instance

  1. Create a runserver file.

    This example creates RUN_ase1for instance ase1. Enter the runserver file on a single line. The “\” indicates that the line continues without a space.

    $SYBASE/ASE-15_0/bin/dataserver 
    --quorum_dev=/dev/raw/raw11
    --instance=ase1
    

    NoteCreate all devices, database devices, and quorum devices as raw devices on shared disks.

  2. Make a copy of the runserver file for each of the Adaptive Servers in the cluster. For example, the three instances for the cluster named “mycluster” have runserver files named RUN_ase1, RUN_ase2, and RUN_ase3. Make sure you include the same quorum device for all instances. --instance should change in each file to point to the appropriate instance name.
