ServiceGuard Manager Version A.02.00 Release Notes

What’s in this Version

To see a map and the cluster properties, you need a valid logon and

password for a server. The server with ServiceGuard A.11.12 or later.

Viewing does not require root permission.

To do administrative commands, you do need to login as root on an

HP-UX server with ServiceGuard A.11.13 (with the latest patches) and

Cluster Object Manager Version A.01.03.01. (See "Required and

Recommended Patches” in this document.)

Note: Because ContinentalClusters are always on more than one subnet,

ServiceGuard Manager sees them as two clusters. To see all the

information about a Continental cluster, open two instances of

ServiceGuard Manager. In each instance, connect to a server on the

appropriate subnet.

Figure 1-2 How ServiceGuard Gathers Information

In this diagram, ServiceGuard Manager has been installed on 3 systems,

(Windows, HP-UX, and Linux). Each of these management stations

connects to a server (a node with ServiceGuard A.11.12 or later

installed). The server goes out on its subnets and discovers all the cluster

objects that have ServiceGuard Version A.10.10 or later. It queries for

status and conﬁguration information. If the server has access

permissions, the cluster node will supply the information. (See Before

Installing ServiceGuard Manager, below, for a description of conﬁguring

node access permissions with cmclnodelist.)
