HP Serviceguard A.12.00.00 for Linux Release Notes, May 2014

Known problems and limitations in Serviceguard
• QXCR1001316351: In a very rare condition cmcld will dump core during shutdown of a
node. Since package failover takes place and application does not stop there is no visible
impact to the end user.
• QXCR1001335928: In a very rare condition cmcld may dump core when multiple commands
are run in parallel. Multiple Serviceguard command executing in parallel is an unlikely scenario
for a customer.
• QXCR1001251484 : SLES 11 SP2: "identd Service failed to start if the IPV6 stack is disabled".
• QXCR1001243955: RHEL 5.x : ssh to another node using IPv6 site-local address hangs.
• QXCR1001251481: RHEL 5.x : Empty XML doc error due to rpmReadConfigFiles() failure.
Known problems and limitations in Serviceguard Manager
The known problems and limitations of Serviceguard Manager in this release are as follows:
• Configuration management (Settings option in Serviceguard Manager)— While configuring
a subnet if certain nodes are not displayed under Available Subnets, then ensure that the IP
address of all the Subnets of a node that needs to be configured in Serviceguard Manager is
present in /etc/hosts file along with hostname mapping.
• LDAP login: To log in to Serviceguard Manager successfully with LDAP credentials edit /etc/
pam.d/sgmgr_login file to include the following entries:
auth required pam_ldap.so
account required pam_ldap.so
Example of how /etc/pam.d/sgmgr_login file will appear after editing it:
auth sufficient pam_unix.so auth
required pam_ldap.so account
sufficient pam_unix.so account
