HP Serviceguard Version A.11.20 Release Notes, April 2011

with LVM version B.11.31.0809 and Serviceguard A.11.19 or later. (This support was first
introduced in a patch to Serviceguard A.11.18.)
NOTE: You are not required to move to LVM 2.x volume groups and everything will work as
before if you do nothing.
If you do use LVM 2.x volume groups, you can still manage them with the same commands as
before, although you may have to make minor changes to any scripts you use that parse the output
of lvdisplay, vgdisplay, pvdisplay or vgscan, as the output of these commands has
changed slightly. In addition, new options are available for some commands.
For more information, see the white paper LVM 2.0 Volume Groups in HP-UX 11i v3 at http://
www.hp.com/go/hpux-core-docs. For information about all other aspects of LVM on HP-UX 11i
v3, see the Logical Volume Management volume (volume 3) of the HP-UX System Administrator’s
Guide, at the same address.
About 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 33).
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 34).
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 http://www.hp.com/go/hpux-hpvm-docs.
• 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
