Announcements
The HP Serviceguard Storage Management Suite (SG SMS) bundles integrate HP Serviceguard
(SG) with the Veritas Storage Foundation™ by Symantec (SF). This combination provides powerful
database and storage management capabilities while maintaining the mission-critical reliability
HP Serviceguard customers have come to expect. Veritas Storage Foundation (SF) combines the
industry-leading Veritas Volume Manager™ by Symantec (VxVM) and the Veritas File System™
by Symantec (VxFS) to provide a complete online storage management solution. With SF, physical
disks can be grouped into logical volumes to improve disk utilization and eliminate storage-related
downtime. In addition, SF can distribute I/O loads across multiple paths to improve performance
and move unimportant or out-of-date files to inexpensive storage media. Customers running an
Oracle Real Application Clusters (RAC) environment benefit from enhanced database performance
and file system management when utilizing Oracle Disk Manager and the Veritas Storage
Foundation™ Cluster File System by Symantec (CFS) technologies.
As integrated solutions, the HP Serviceguard Storage Management Suite bundles are supported
directly by HP, providing a single point of contact for all of the software in each bundle.

• Supported on the HP-UX 11i v2 operating system – requires an HP-UX 11i v2 version released

Understanding HP Serviceguard Storage Management Suite Version Identifiers
The following Table 1-1 lists the major components included in each HP Serviceguard Storage
Management Suite (SG SMS) version.
The SG SMS version number, “A.xx.yy.zz”, reflects the Veritas ™ Storage Foundation version
and the HP Serviceguard version. The “xx” increments with Veritas™ Storage Foundation version
changes, the “yy” increments with HP Serviceguard version changes, and the “zz” is reserved
for incremental updates to previously released SG SMS versions. For example, with SG SMS
version A.01.00, the “.01” indicates Veritas ™ Storage Foundation version 4.1 and the “.00”
indicates HP Serviceguard version A.11.17.
For each SG SMS version, the SG SMS product bundles for that version are supported on HP-UX
11i v2, HP-UX 11i v3, or on both OS versions.
