Before Installing Serviceguard A.11.19
Before you install Serviceguard A.11.19, you need to make sure that your cluster has
the correct hardware upgrades. If you are upgrading older systems, make sure your
HP representative reviews the firmware levels of SCSI controller cards and installs the
latest versions.
Memory Requirements
Serviceguard needs approximately 15.5 MB of lockable memory on each cluster node.
NOTE: Remember to tune the swap space and the HP-UX kernel parameters nfile,
maxfiles and maxfiles_lim to ensure that they are set high enough for the number of
packages you are configuring.
Port Requirements
Serviceguard uses the ports listed below. Before installing, check /etc/services
and be sure no other program has reserved these ports.
• discard 9/udp
• snmp 161/udp
• snmp 162/udp
• hacl-qs 1238/tcp
