Serviceguard Manager Version A.05.02 Release Notes, Third Edition, July 2009

If you do not have ClusterView, but you do have OVO, tools are added to the Tool Bank, ready
for an OpenView administrator to assign them. These tools are listed below.
Assign these tools carefully. Some require root access to the Serviceguard nodes, and some can
grant it indirectly.
• Serviceguard Mgr launcher: You can launch Serviceguard Manager from OpenView.
Serviceguard Manager is independent of OpenView. It does not use the OV daemons or
object database to discover the configuration or status of clusters. Instead, it gets information
by connecting to Serviceguard Version A.11.13.xx and later; then Serviceguard goes out on
its subnets and gathers the information.
• Installs these Tools to work on a selected cluster node:
— HA Info Tools:
◦ Query Cluster Conf: uses cmquerycl to gather configuration information
◦ Scan Cluster: uses cmscancl to display information about cluster configuration,
LAN cards, disks, and file systems.
◦ View Cluster Binary Config: uses cmviewconf to see an ASCII extraction of the
binary configuration file.
◦ View Cluster Config: uses cmviewcl to see cluster configuration and status of
running clusters.
◦ View System Log: opens vi editor to view /var/adm/syslog/syslog.log
— HA Admin Tools:
◦ Run Cluster: uses the cmruncl command to start a cluster from the node you
selected
◦ Halt Cluster: uses the sghaltcl command (a variant of the cmhaltcl command)
to halt the cluster of the node you selected
◦ Run Node: uses the cmrunnode command to join the selected node to its cluster
◦ Halt Node: uses the cmhaltnode command to make the selected node inactive in
its cluster
— Net Diag Tools
◦ View Interface Config: displays LAN interface configuration parameters
◦ LAN Diag and Admin: launches the program lanadmin, which administers and
tests the local area network.
◦ Scan LAN interfaces: uses lanscan to display information about each LAN device
that has software support on the system.
◦ IP Interface Stat: uses netstat to display statistics for network interfaces and
protocols, as well as the contents of various network-related data structures. (Choose
options to filter output.)
— LVM tools.
◦ View Logical Volumes: displays the logical volumes currently configured
◦ View Volume Groups: uses vgdisplay to show information about the volume
groups configured.
