For the definition of application controller, see the PowerHA® SystemMirror Glossary in the AIX® Information Center.

Fields

Start script
Specify the full path and file name of the user-defined script to determine the way to start the application controller. This program is run whenever the required resources become available, such as when a node joins the cluster. This script must be in the same location on each cluster node that might start the application controller. However, the contents of each script can differ. You can use a maximum of 256 alphanumeric characters. You cannot specify arguments to the start script.
Stop script
Specify the full path and file name of the user-defined script to determine the way to stop the application controller. This program is run whenever the required resources become available, such as when a node joins the cluster. This script must be in the same location on each cluster node that might stop the application controller. However, the contents of each script can differ. You can use a maximum of 256 alphanumeric characters. You cannot specify arguments to the stop script.
Application monitors
Select one or more application monitors from the table to use with this application controller.
