All system resources will be divided into logical resource groups, each
resource group shall have an enterprise wide unique name. The resource
group name shall be the basis of numerous naming structures and
policies.
Resource groups will be defined for standalone and high availability
systems. All systems will be designed as though they participate in a
high availability environment, regardless of whether or not they
actually do. This does not mean that all systems will have HACMP or
other automated high availability software installed.
A centralized repository shall contain a list of all configured resource
groups enterprise wide. New resource groups shall be entered into this
repository.
