New Features for October 2009 Patches
With the patches listed under “October 2009 Patches” (page 11), Serviceguard Manager
provides the following new capabilities:
• Cluster Topology Map.
Coordinates all elements of the HA monitoring infrastructure into a single,
easy-to-use graphical format. You can view cluster status at a glance, perform
management tasks by right clicking cluster component icons in the map, and drag
a package icon to a node icon to perform a “move package” operation.
• Local Syslog and Package Log Viewers.
Improve troubleshooting by quickly displaying the local syslog and package logs,
if consolidated logs are not available.
• Cluster Configuration Enhancements.
Perform disk lock activation in half the time using the Disk and File Management
Tool from the Serviceguard Manager cluster configuration page.
• Serviceguard Manager Load Time Enhancement.
Much faster loading of Serviceguard Manager pages into a web browser.
• Integration with System Management Homepage (SMH) Network Tool.
Context-sensitive launch of SMH Network Tool lets you troubleshoot and perform
system network configuration changes in half the time from the Serviceguard
Manager user interface.
