<p class="MsoNormal">Hi all,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Is there any restrictions on Resource Agent script that it shall not support any TCP connection opens.. ??<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I have a script as below <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">executecmd="$FD<>/dev/tcp/localhost/$PORT" #FD is the lowest available FD and PORT is hardcoded port<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">eval "exec $executecmd" 2> /dev/null<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">retval=$?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">echo $retval #retval is always 1 irrespective of the TCP server running on localhost:$PORT<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Although I see that I can connect to TCP Server running on localhost:$PORT using other scripts with same statements. I cannot connect as a ocf-ra.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">So, I wanted to know is there any restrictions on my RA script.<o:p></o:p></p>
