1 HP Serviceguard Toolkit for Integrity Virtual Servers
B.02.00 Release Notes
Announcements
The HP Serviceguard toolkit for Integrity Virtual Servers (SG IVS Toolkit) is a new product that
inherits the functionality from the HP Integrity VM Serviceguard toolkit.
NOTE:
• The SG IVS toolkit files and the HP Integrity VM Serviceguard toolkit are installed at different
locations and can coexist. They can be individually upgraded without impacting the other.
Also, the packages created using these toolkits, for two different VMs, can coexist and continue
to use their respective files and commands.
• HP recommends that you convert the package created using the HP Integrity VM Serviceguard
toolkit to the package that uses the SG IVS toolkit.
• To run the SG IVS toolkit on the Virtualization Services Platform (VSP), it requires HP Integrity
Virtual Machines or HP-UX vPars as a prerequisite.
• You must use iSCSI storage in Serviceguard environment with Persistent Reservation (PR)
implementation as it helps to protect data from Ghost IO.
The SG IVS toolkit for HP-UX 11i v3: Annual Release, March 2012 is available for free download
at http://software.hp.com —> HP-UX 11i Software —> High Availability
