To monitor a remote Serviceguard RAC cluster, the entry of the GUI
user name and server name must be in /etc/cmcluster/cmclnodelist
file on all nodes in the cluster to be viewed.
DB Provider Monitoring Using Control Access Policy (CAP) To
monitor a local SGeRAC cluster as a non-root user, the GUI user name,
server name and user role (at least monitor role) must be configured
through CAP.
For a remote cluster, any GUI user name (non-root or root), server name
and user role (at least monitor role) should be configured through CAP.
