    I'm running AIX 5200-09 on p670's. I updated HACMP from 5.2.0.1 to 5.2.0.8.
    After the update, I tested a failover which worked OK.

    My question concerns the procedure for falling back to the original system.

    Up to now, I would use smit as follows:
    > smit hacmp
    > System Management (C-SPOC)
    > HACMP Resource Group and Application Management
    > Move a Resource Group to Another Node
    - Select from list: my_resource_group
    - Select option: "Restore_Node_Priority_Order"
    and continue and the system reverts to the original configuration.

    This time istead of getting option to "Restore_Node_Priority_Order", I get the option "Reset_Any_Priority_Overrides". I selected this option and no apparent activity occurred. I then selected the actual server that I wanted to be primary and the fall back occurred. I assume everthing is OK.

    Is the procedure now a 2-step operation? First, remove the "priority_override", then secondly, move the resource group.

    I looked for documentation regarding a change in the process but found nothing.
    Does anyone have any comments regarding the procedure?
