HP Serviceguard Version A.11.19 Release Notes, October 2009

cmappmgr
cmappmgr is an utility that allows you launch and monitor processes on HP Virtual
Machine (HPVM) guest nodes. For information about HPVM, See “Support for HP
Integrity Virtual Machines (HPVM)” (page 48).
cmappmgr is operating-system-independent, supporting HP-UX, Linux, and Windows
VMs.
cmappmgr on the host communicates via SSL connections with a lightweight module
on the VM guest, cmappserver. cmappmgr exits when the process that is being
monitored does. It can be run as a service in a Serviceguard package, or invoked from
an external script in a modular package or from a run and halt script in a legacy package.
(See Chapter 6 of Managing Serviceguard for information about modular and legacy
packages.)
cmappmgr is packaged as a Serviceguard command. cmappserver is packaged as a
depot, rpm, or exe (for HP-UX, Linux, or Windows respectively) which can be copied
from the host to a VM guest and installed there.
For more information see the white paper Designing High Availability Solutions with HP
Serviceguard and HP Integrity Virtual Machines, which you can find at the address given
under “Documents for This Version ” (page 50).
HPVM 4.1 Support for Windows 2008 Guests
HPVM 4.1 supports Windows 2008 guests, and you can use cmappmgr to monitor
processes on these guests.
To enable this capability you need to do the following:
• Install the HPVM 4.1 July patches.
See the latest version of the HP Integrity Virtual Machines Version 4.1 Release Notes,
which you can find on docs.hp.com under HP Virtual Server Environment
(VSE)-> HP Integrity Virtual Machines.
• Install the Windows 2008 guest operating system on the host.
• edit C:\Program Files\Hewlett-Packard\cmappserver\conf\
wrapper.conf on the Windows 2008 guest to insert the following line:
wrapper.java.additional.1=-Dos.name="Windows 2003"
This should go after the following lines:
#Java Additional Parameters
#wrapper.java.additional.1=-Dprogram.name=C:\Program
Files\Hewlett-Packard\cmappserver\cmappserver.bat
