14 HP StorageWorks Disk Array XP Operating System Configuration Guide: HP-UX
Failover
The disk array supports standard products that provide host and/or
application failover, I/O path failover, and logical volume management
(LVM). For HP-UX, the disk array supports the following:
• HP Multi-Computer/ServiceGuard (MC/ServiceGuard) software for
application failover
• Alternate link for I/O path failover (included in HP-UX)
• Logical volume management (included in HP-UX)
SNMP configuration
The disk arrays support standard Simple Network Management Protocol
(SNMP) for remotely managing the disk array from the host. The SNMP
agent on the remote console PC or Command View can provide status and
Remote Service Information Message (R-SIM) reporting to the SNMP
manager on the host for up to eight disk arrays. To configure the SNMP
manager on the host, refer to the operating system documentation.
RAID Manager command devices
RAID Manager manages Business Copy (BC) and/or Continuous
Access (CA) operations from a server host. To use RAID Manager
with BC or CA, you must use Command View or LUN Configuration
Manager to designate at least one LDEV as a command device. Refer
to the Command View or LUN Configuration Manager user guide
for information about how to designate a command device.
