Manager
Installing Software
You can install Serviceguard Manager on an HP-UX workstation, on an
HP-UX server (with or without Serviceguard), on a Linux workstation
(with or without Serviceguard), or on a PC with Windows 2003, Windows
XP Professional Edition, or Windows 2000 Professional.
If a previous version of Serviceguard Manager is already installed, stop
any instances of Serviceguard Manager running on the node before
installing the new version there. See information about uninstalling
below.
Before Installing Serviceguard Manager
When deciding where to install Serviceguard Manager, plan for the
security you want, and the access you will need.
Consider the connections from users to the Session Server node, the
connection from the Session Server to cluster nodes.
Which operators will use the interface, and which capabilities do you
want them to have? Which management stations will they sit at, and
which computer will they log into to begin a Serviceguard Manager
session? See the table “Capabilities of Session Servers on Target
Clusters” on page 18 for help in planning this. Serviceguard version
A.11.16.xx and A.11.17.xx have a new way to setting up access.
Installing Software
You can install Serviceguard Manager on three platforms: HP-UX,
Linux, or Windows. The methods are slightly different for each. Use the
section below that is appropriate for your type of installation.
There are two ways to install Serviceguard Manager: from the HP
Serviceguard Distributed Components disk, or from the HP web site
http://hp.com/go/softwaredepot. You can choose the English,
Japanese, Korean, Simplified Chinese, or Traditional Chinese version.
