Installing Serviceguard Extension for RAC
To install Serviceguard Extension for RAC independently, follow these steps:
1. Install or upgrade to HP-UX 11i v3 before loading Serviceguard Extension for RAC Version
A.11.20.
2. Use the swinstall command to install SGeRAC, product number T1907BA.
3. Verify the installation. Use the following command to display a list of all installed components:

Serviceguard version A.11.20 will automatically be installed as part of the bundle installation

The correct version of SGeRAC will automatically be installed when you install one of the HP
Serviceguard Storage Management Suite bundles. If SG SMS is already installed, do not install
SGeRAC independently.
