Impact
GiCAP Disaster Recovery allows customers to transfer usage rights to other group members
when a member is unavailable. The Group Manager must be running iCAP version 8.02.01 or
later, and all group members must run version iCAP 8.02 or later to use this feature.
iCAP version 8.02 GiCAP Group Managers store more information about the members of a
group. This information must be fetched from the various group members when converting an
earlier version of the GiCAP database to the current version. This information cannot be fetched
if all hosts of a GiCAP Group member cannot be contacted. Therefore, HP recommends updating
a GiCAP Group Manager system to iCAP version 8.02 or later only when every GiCAP Group
Member has at least one host which can be contacted by the GiCAP Group Manager.
