.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
.LP
Reconfiguration and Coordination Manager (RCM) is a framework designed to
coordinate device consumers during Solaris Dynamic Reconfiguration (DR). The
interfaces specified in this man page allow device consumers, such as
application vendors or site administrators, to act before and after DR
operations take place by providing RCM scripts. You can write your own RCM
scripts to shut down your applications, or to cleanly release the devices from
your applications during dynamic remove operations.
.sp
.LP
An RCM script is an executable perl script, a shell script or a binary. Perl is
the recommended language. Each script is run in its own address space using the
user-id of the script file owner.
.sp
.LP
An RCM script is invoked on demand in response to DR as follows:
.sp
.in +2
.nf
\fI<scriptname>\fR \fI<command>\fR [\fIargs\fR ...]
.fi
.in -2
.sp

.sp
.LP
Every script must implement the following RCM commands:
.sp
.ne 2
.na
\fB\fBscriptinfo\fR\fR
.ad
.RS 16n
Get script information.
.RE

.sp
.ne 2
.na
\fB\fBregister\fR\fR
.ad
.RS 16n
Register devices the script handles.
.RE

.sp
.ne 2
.na
\fB\fBresourceinfo\fR\fR
.ad
.RS 16n
Get resource information.
.RE

.sp
.LP
A script might include some or all the of the following commands:
.sp
.ne 2
.na
\fB\fBqueryremove\fR\fR
.ad
.RS 15n
Queries whether the resource can be released.
.RE

.sp
.ne 2
.na
\fB\fBpreremove\fR\fR
.ad
.RS 15n
Releases the resource.
.RE

.sp
.ne 2
.na
\fB\fBpostremove\fR\fR
.ad
.RS 15n
Provides post-resource removal notification.
.RE

.sp
.ne 2
.na
\fB\fBundoremove\fR\fR
.ad
.RS 15n
Undo the actions done in preremove.
.RE

.sp
.LP
When a script's \fBregister\fR command is run, the script should supply, in
return data, all resource names the script or its application handles that
could potentially be removed by DR. A resource name refers to a name in
\fB/dev\fR path name.
.sp
.LP
Below is a high-level overview of the sequence of script invocations that
occurs when dynamic removal of a script's registered resource is attempted. See
the COMMANDS section for a detailed description of the commands.
.RS +4
.TP
1.
Prior to removing the resource from the system during DR, the script's
\fBqueryremove\fR command is run:
.sp
.in +2
.nf
\fI<scriptname>\fR queryremove \fI<resourcename>\fR
.fi
.in -2
.sp

The script should check for obvious reasons why the resource can not be removed
from the perspective of its service or application.
.RE
.RS +4
.TP
2.
If the script indicates that the resource can be removed in the
\fBqueryremove\fR command. The script's \fBpreremove\fR command is run:
.sp
.in +2
.nf
\fI<scriptname>\fR preremove \fI<resourcename>\fR
.fi
.in -2
.sp

The script releases the resource from the service or application represented by
the script and prepares for the resource removal. Releasing the resource
includes closing the resource if the resource is currently opened by its
application.
.RE
.RS +4
.TP
3.
The system then proceeds to remove the resource.
.RE
.RS +4
.TP
4.
If the system has removed the resource successfully the script's
\fBpostremove\fR command is run:
.sp
.in +2
.nf
\fI<scriptname>\fR postremove \fI<resourcename>\fR
.fi
.in -2
.sp

Otherwise the script's \fBundoremove\fR command is run:
.sp
.in +2
.nf
\fI<scriptname>\fR undoremove \fI<resourcename>\fR
.fi
.in -2
.sp

.RE
.sp
.LP
For any commands the script does not implement, it must exit with exit status
of 2. RCM silently returns success for the script's unimplemented commands.
.sp
.LP
A script performs the following basic steps:
.RS +4
.TP
.ie t \(bu
.el o
Takes RCM command and additional arguments from the command line and
environment parameters.
.RE
.RS +4
.TP
.ie t \(bu
.el o
Processes the command.
.RE
.RS +4
.TP
.ie t \(bu
.el o
Writes the expected return data to stdout as \fIname=value\fR pairs delimited
by newlines, where \fIname\fR is the name of the return data item that RCM
expects and \fIvalue\fR is the value associated with the data item.
.RE

.SS "Commands"
.SS "\fBscriptinfo\fR"
.sp
.LP
The \fBscriptinfo\fR command is invoked to gather information about the script.
.sp
.ne 2
.na
\fBReturn data:\fR
.ad
.RS 16n
If successful, the script must write the following name-value pairs to stdout
and exit with status 0:
.RS +4
.TP
.ie t \(bu

\fBrcm_script_version=1\fR

\fBrcm_cmd_timeout=\fR\fIcommand_timeout_value\fR
.RE
where \fIscript_func_info\fR is a localized human-readable message describing
the functionality of the script.
.sp
The RCM monitors the execution time of RCM commands by RCM scripts.
\fIcommand_timeout_value\fR is the maximum time in seconds the script is
expected to take to process any RCM command except the \fBscriptinfo\fR command
itself. If an RCM script does not process the RCM command and exit within this
time, RCM sends a \fBSIGABRT\fR signal to the script process. RCM then waits
for a few seconds for the script to finish the processing of the current RCM
command and exit. If the script does not exit within this time, RCM sends a
\fBSIGKILL\fR signal to the script.
.sp
The \fBrcm_cmd_timeout\fR name-value pair is optional. It is only needed if the
script is expected to take more than a few seconds to process any RCM command.
Setting this name to a value of 0 (zero) disables the timer. If this name-value
pair is not supplied, a default value is assigned by the RCM.
.sp
Upon failure, the script must specify the failure reason using the name-value
pair \fBrcm_failure_reason\fR and exit with status 1.
.RE

.SS "\fBregister\fR"
.sp
.LP
The \fBregister\fR command is invoked to allow a script to specify the
resources that it or its application handles that could potentially be removed
by DR. The script has to supply all its resource names to RCM using the
name-value pair \fBrcm_resource_name\fR.
.sp
.ne 2

.RE

.SS "\fBresourceinfo\fR \fIresourcename\fR"

.sp

where \fIresource_usage\fR is a localized human readable message describing the
usage of the resource by the script.

Upon failure, the script must specify the failure reason using the name-value
pair \fBrcm_failure_reason\fR and exit with status 1.
.RE

.SS "\fBqueryremove\fR \fIresourcename\fR"
.sp
.LP
Prior to removing the resource from the system, the \fBqueryremove\fR command
is invoked to query the script to determine whether the script can release the
given resource successfully from the service or application it represents. The
script does not actually release the resource. The script might indicate that
it is not able to release the resource if the resource is critical for its
service or application.

Upon any other failure, the script must specify the failure reason using the

.RE

.SS "\fBpreremove\fR \fIresourcename\fR"

The \fBpreremove\fR command is invoked prior to an attempt to remove the given
\fIresourcename\fR. In response to this command the script can either release
the resource (including closing the device if the device is currently opened)
from the service or application it represents or indicate that it can not
release the resource if the resource is critical for its service or

Indicates that the script cannot release the resource for \fBpreremove\fR and
\fBqueryremove\fR commands. The script should provide a message to RCM
specifying the reason for not being able to release the resource using the
name-value pair \fBrcm_failure_reason\fR before exiting.

If a script cannot successfully process an RCM command, it must supply to the
RCM a message indicating the reason for failure by writing a name-value pair,
in the form shown below, to stdout and exiting with the appropriate exit
status.

.SH NOTES
.sp
.LP
RCM scripts are expected to properly handle all RCM commands that the script
implements and to log all errors. Only root has permission to add or remove an
RCM script. An ill-behaved RCM script can cause unexpected DR failures.
.sp
.LP
RCM commands are invoked only for the resources whose subsystems participate
within the RCM framework. Currently, not all susbsystems participate within the
RCM framework.
