Serviceguard Version A.11.17 on HP-UX 11i v3 Release Notes
What’s in this Release
Chapter 118
• Display system multi-node package and multi-node packages on the
main page
• Metrocluster identification
• HP Integrity VM (Integrity Virtual Machine) identification
• Separate configuration of package configuration file and control
script
• Command Line preview for administration operations
• More extensive administration operations including:
— run a cluster on a subset of nodes
— change switching on more than one node at a time
— run/halt more than one package at a time
— run/halt multi-node packages
The following are differences between B.01.00 and A.05.01:
• Single cluster view only – A.05.01 shows multiple clusters, but
B.01.00 shows only the local cluster and depends on HP SIM to
provide a multi-cluster view.
• Cluster topology map is replaced by the HP Serviceguard Manager
main page.
• The SNMP event viewer is replaced by consolidated syslog and
package logs.
• Drag and drop of a package is replaced by the “Move Package”
operation.
• Openview integration is done via HP SIM.
• No file save – Serviceguard Manager A.05.01 has the ability to save a
snapshot of the current clusters monitored, and display it later. This
feature is mainly used for comparing configuration changes, which
now be done with DSAU (see “About the Serviceguard Manager SMH
Plug-In” on page 16).
