ipnodes Entries Needed in /etc/nsswitch.conf
ipnodes entries are needed in /etc/nsswitch.conf beginning with version A.11.19.

For more information, see Chapter 5:Safeguarding against Loss of Name Resolution Services
section in the Managing HP Serviceguard for Linux manual available at www.hp.com/go/
linux-serviceguard-docs.
High Availability Consulting Services
Because Serviceguard configurations can be complex to configure and maintain, HP recommends
that you use its high availability consulting services to ensure a smooth installation and rollout;
contact your HP representative for more information. You should also work with your HP
representative to ensure that you have the latest firmware revisions for disk drives, disk controllers,
LAN controllers, and other hardware.
Release Notes Revisions
Occasionally, important new information warrants revising the Release Notes after they have gone
to press. In such cases HP updates the Release Notes on www.hp.com/go/
linux-serviceguard-docs—> Release Notes. Versions with the same part number are
differentiated by the publication date.
