This section provides suggestions about how to test a data service implementation in the HA environment. The test cases are suggestions and are not exhaustive. You need access to a test-bed Sun Cluster configuration so the testing work does not impact production machines.
Test that your HA data service behaves properly in all cases where a resource group is moved between physical hosts. These cases include system crashes and the use of the scswitch command. Test that client machines continue to get service after these events.
Test the idempotency of the methods. For example, replace each method temporarily with a short shell script that calls the original method two or more times.
