HP Serviceguard Version A.11.19 Release Notes, March 2009

tools. Serviceguard Manager allows you to monitor, administer and configure a
Serviceguard A.11.19 cluster from any system with a supported web browser.
Serviceguard Manager does not require additional software installation. Instead, using
your browser, you log into an HP Systems Management Homepage (SMH) and access
the HP Serviceguard Manager tool, as well as other system management tools.
The HP Serviceguard Manager Main Page provides you with a summary of the health
of the cluster including the status of each node and its packages.
DSAU Integration
HP Serviceguard Manager uses Distributed Systems Administration Utilities (DSAU)
to display consolidated cluster log (syslog) and consolidated package logs.
You can find more information on DSAU in the Distributed Systems Administration
Utilities User’s Guide, available from http://docs.hp.com -> Network and
Systems Management -> System Administration.
NOTE: DSAU does not support a local log consolidation server in a cross-subnet
cluster. Instead, you can setup a remote log consolidation server on the Quorum Server
node or cluster.
Native Language Support
HP Serviceguard Manager Version B.02.00 is available in English, Japanese, Korean,
Simplified Chinese and Traditional Chinese, French, German, Spanish, and Italian.
