New attribute SetFSPrimary for PostgreSQL secure file system (SecureFS) support

Secure file system (SecureFS) feature provides a way to protect your data from a corruption or a ransomware situation. For SecureFS to work correctly, the cluster file system must be marked as primary on the node where the PostgreSQL resource is online. This release introduces a new Cluster Server (VCS) PostgreSQL agent attribute, SetFSPrimary, to mark the file system as primary where the PostgreSQL database is online. This attribute plays an important role when the PostgreSQL database is set up as a VCS resource in the PostgreSQL service group that includes both CFSmount and CVMVoldg resources.

Refer to the following for more details:

  • Cluster Server Agents for PostgreSQL Database and Replication 9.0 Installation and Configuration Guide for details about the PostgreSQL agent.
  • Storage Foundation 9.0 Administrator’s Guide - Linux or the Storage Foundation Cluster File System High Availability 9.0 Administrator’s Guide - Linux for more details about SecureFS.
