This appendix lists the error messages and warnings that can appear as output of the ha_cfgverify command that are related to Sybase configuration. Other messages are described in Appendix A of the IRIS FailSafe Administrator's Guide .
![]() | Note: ha_cfgverify generates warnings when a possible error exists, but it is unable to determine for sure. You must check each warning manually. A warning could indicate invalid IRIS FailSafe configuration. |
ha_cfgverify: No sybase section present in the file
There is a Sybase application-class entry but there is no sybase block.
ha_cfgverify: sybase <SQL_Server> section: sa-passwd entry is missing. Assuming no sa-passwd
This is not an error. Because the optional sa-passwd entry is missing, IRIS FailSafe assumes that there is no password for the Sybase database system administrator.
ha_cfgverify: sybase <SQL_Server> section must have db-avail entry ha_cfgverify: sybase <SQL_Server> section must have db-probe-time entry ha_cfgverify: sybase <SQL_Server> section must have db-retry-count entry ha_cfgverify: sybase <SQL_Server> section must have db-timeout entry ha_cfgverify: sybase <SQL_Server> section must have either master-db-vol or master-db-fs entry ha_cfgverify: sybase <SQL_Server> section must have release-dir entry ha_cfgverify: sybase <SQL_Server> section must have sa-user entry ha_cfgverify: sybase <SQL_Server> section must have shutdown-options entry ha_cfgverify: sybase <SQL_Server> section must have start-monitor-time entry ha_cfgverify: sybase <SQL_Server> section must have unix-user entry
A mandatory parameter is missing from the sybase block.
ha_cfgverify: sybase <SQL_Server> section: db-avail entry <value> must be either “high” or “low”
You must set the db-avail parameter to high (an SQL Server failure causes a failover) or low (an SQL Server failure doesn't cause a failover).
ha_cfgverify: sybase <SQL_Server> section: shutdown-options <value> must be either 0, 1, 2, or 3
The values for the shutdown-options parameters are 0 (normal shutdown), 1 (shutdown with nowait and no checkpointing), 2 (shutdown with nowait with checkpointing), and 3 (kill the server processes).
ha_cfgverify: sybase <SQL_Server> section: unix-user entry <user name> is invalid
The system failed to get a password file entry for the user specified as unix-user.
ha_cfgverify: sybase <SQL_Server>: the master-db-fs entry <filesystem> is invalid
The master-db-fs entry must match the label of a filesystem block.
ha_cfgverify: sybase <SQL_Server>: the master-db-vol entry <volume> is invalid
The master-db-vol entry must match the label of a volume block.
ha_cfgverify: Warning: sybase <SQL_Server> section: release-dir entry directory> is invalid
The specified directory is not accessible or is not a directory or the underlying filesystem may not be mounted.
ha_cfgverify: sybase <SQL_Server>: monitoring-level must be either 1 or 2
The valid values for the monitoring level field are 1 and 2.
