ServiceGuard Manager Version A.02.00 Release Notes

Compatibility Information and Installation Requirements

To set up the highly-available connection between ServiceGuard

Manager and server nodes in a cluster, follow these steps:

1. Create the package in a cluster with ServiceGuard. For viewing, use

ServiceGuard A.11.12 or later. For administration commands use

ServiceGuard A.11.13 or later (with patches).

See “Creating the Package Conﬁguration” chapter in the

ServiceGuard manual. All ServiceGuard manuals are posted on the

web and you can view or print them there. Go to

http://www.docs.hp.com and click High Availability; the products are

listed alphabetically.

a. When naming the package, choose one that your users will

recognize, such as Clus3Srvr. The ﬁrst time a user opens

ServiceGuard Manager they will see the Connect dialog box. They

can type this name in for Server. After that, the name will appear

in a list every time that user opens ServiceGuard Manager.

b. Get an IP address to use as the package’s relocatable address. You

can use nslookup to be sure the package name and IP address are

correctly associated in your DNS table.

c. Make only these two modiﬁcations to the package conﬁguration

ﬁle template, and leave the defaults for the other ﬁelds:

• List the package nodes. For high-availability, it is best tolist all

the nodes in the cluster.

• For the run and halt scripts pathname, specify the control

script name and path for the run and halt script. (The default

path is in the documentation.)

d. Open the control script template. Make just two modiﬁcations.

These will allow the connection between yourclient (ServiceGuard

Manager station) and the server (ServiceGuard A.11.12 cluster):

• Insert the IP address associated with your package (the

package’s relocatable address).

• Insert the address of the subnet.

Assigning and Conﬁguring New OpenView VPO/ITO Tools

When you install ServiceGuard Manager, it checks to see if you have

OpenView ITO installed. If you do, it checks to see if you have the tools

listed in “Installing with HP OpenView” above. If you do not have those
