Using Serviceguard Manager
Serviceguard Manager is the graphical user interface for Serviceguard.
It is available as a “plug-in” to the System Management Homepage
(SMH). SMH is a web-based graphical user interface (GUI) that replaces
SAM as the system administration GUI as of HP-UX 11i v3 (but you can
still run the SAM terminal interface; see “Using SAM” on page 32).
You can use Serviceguard Manager to monitor, administer, and
configure Serviceguard clusters.
• Monitor: you can see properties, status, and alerts of clusters, nodes,
and packages.
• Administer: you can do administrative tasks such as run or halt
clusters, cluster nodes, and packages.
• Configure: you can create or modify a cluster and its packages (for
restrictions, see “Configuring Clusters with Serviceguard Manager”
on page 31).
See the latest Release Notes for your version of Serviceguard for an
introduction to using Serviceguard Manager.
Check the Serviceguard, SGeRAC, and SMS Compatibility and Feature
Matrix and the latest Release Notes for your version of Serviceguard for
up-to-date information about Serviceguard Manager compatibility
(http://www.docs.hp.com -> High Availability ->
Serviceguard).
Monitoring Clusters with Serviceguard Manager
From the main page of Serviceguard Manager, you can see status and
alerts for the cluster, nodes, and packages. You can also drill down to see
the configuration and alerts of the cluster, nodes, and packages.
