• Serviceguard Manager installs its own Java Runtime Environment (JRE) and can run only
with the JRE located in the Serviceguard Manager directory.
• If you have Network Node Manager installed on this computer, see Installing with OpenView,
below.
• If you are updating from an earlier version of Serviceguard Manager, your user preference
files are replaced with default settings. The new preference files are compatible with
architecture changes in Serviceguard Manager Version A.03.00.01 and later. Your old
preferences cannot be carried over.
Updating the Serviceguard Manager JRE on Windows
To update the Serviceguard Manager JRE on Windows:
1. Download and install JRE from: http://www.java.com/en/download/manual.jsp
2. Locate the JRE directory on your PC, for example: C:\Program Files\Java\jre6
3. Exit Serviceguard Manager.
4. Replace everything under C:\Program Files\Hewlett-Packard\Serviceguard
Manager\jre with the content of the JRE directory just installed.
5. Run Serviceguard Manager.
Installing with HP Systems Insight Manager
When you install Serviceguard Manager, it looks to see if you have installed Systems Insight
Manager version 5.2 or later. If you have, the Serviceguard Manager install process automatically
registers with Systems Insight Manager, and you can launch Serviceguard Manager from within
Systems Insight Manager.
Serviceguard Manager requires Java Plug-in 1.5.0 or later to be installed on the client system.
If you want to install Systems Insight Manager after you have Serviceguard Manager installed,
registration is not automatically done. In this situation, uninstall Serviceguard Manager, and
then re-install it.
Installing with HP OpenView
When you install Serviceguard Manager, it looks to see if you have installed one of these
OpenView products:
• NNM (Network Node Manager) Version 7.0, 6.31, 6.3, and 6.2.
• OpenView Operations Version 7.0 and 8.0. (OVO includes NNM.)
• VPO Version 6.0. Serviceguard Manager does not support VPW (Vantage Point for Windows)
or Operations for Windows.
If you have installed any of these, the install process automatically does these things:
• Adds a menu item and a button on the toolbar of NNM or OVO to start Serviceguard Manager
("Serviceguard Mgr Launcher").
• Sends Serviceguard events to be logged in the Event Log. The Serviceguard subagent is
responsible for notifying the management station when status or configuration changes. By
default, it is installed in /usr/lbin/cmsnmpd.
• Adds Serviceguard messages to the OVO Message Browser if assigned, and in the NNM
Alarm Browser.
