HP Serviceguard A.11.20.00 for Linux Release Notes, August 2012
the subsection “Allowing Root Access to an Unconfigured Node” under “Configuring Root-Level
Access” in Chapter 5 of the Managing Serviceguard for Linux manual.
• cmclnodelist
When you upgrade from an earlier version, Serviceguard converts entries into new entries
written into the cluster configuration file during the upgrade, as follows:
USER_NAME <user_name>
USER_HOST <host_node>
USER_ROLE Monitor
A wild-card + (plus) is converted as follows:
USER_NAME ANY_USER
USER_HOST ANY_SERVICEGUARD_NODE
USER_ROLE Monitor
After you complete the upgrade, use cmgetconf to create and save a copy of the new
configuration. If you do a cmapplyconf, you want to be sure it applies the newly migrated
Access Control Policies.
Considerations when Installing Serviceguard
When you install Serviceguard for the first time on a node, the node is not yet part of a cluster,
and so there is no Access Control Policy. For instructions on how to proceed, see the subsection
“Allowing Root Access to an Unconfigured Node” under “Configuring Root-Level Access” in Chapter
5 of the Managing Serviceguard for Linux manual.
