HP-UX 11i Version 2 December 2007 Release Notes

AppDiscAgent 3.1.00.01 requires the presence of Web-Based Enterprise Management (WBEM)
services, Secure Shell (SSH), and OpenSSL for correct operation and secure data transmission.
Consult the VSE Management Software Installation and Update Guide Version A.3.00.01 for details
(with the software or online at http://docs.hp.com/en/vse.html).
Performance
Application Discovery requires a “warmup period,” during which the agent collects the initial
set of data for a managed node. The degree to which “warmup” affects memory usage by
Application Discovery server on the central management system depends on the number of
managed nodes that are inventoried at the same time.
Documentation
• Access the online help through the context-sensitive help button [?] in the Application
Discovery user interface. A subset of this content is available in the HP Application Discovery
Getting Started Guide, which is available with the software and online at
http://docs.hp.com/en/vse.html.
• The following manpages are included for installation with the product:
— agent_config(1M) for controlling Application Discovery certificates from the managed
node.
— amgr_remote_config(1M) for configuring Application Discovery certificates from the
CMS.
— amgrd(1M) for controlling or modifying the operation of Application Discovery agent.
• Only English versions of the manpages and other documentation are included at this time.
Obsolescence
Not applicable.
HP Global Workload Manager
HP Global Workload Manager (gWLM), a component of the HP Virtual Server Environment
(VSE) Suite, allows you to centrally define resource-sharing policies that you can use across
multiple HP servers. These policies increase system utilization and facilitate controlled sharing
of system resources. In addition, gWLM provides both real-time and historical monitoring of
the resource allocation.
gWLM has three components:
• VSE Central Management Server, or CMS (VSEMgmt)
You can obtain the VSEMgmt bundle from http://hp.com/go/softwaredepot. It is not available
on the Operating Environments (OE) or Application Release (AR) media.
You configure gWLM and monitor your workloads on the system where the CMS software
is installed. This system must also have HP Systems Insight Manager installed. (For the
versions of SIM supported, see the VSE Management Software Installation and Update Guide.)
• Trial Agent (T2743AA)
The gWLM agent is default-installed on the OE media and is also available from the AR
media.
Install the gWLM agent software on each system where you have workloads you want
gWLM to manage. These systems are known as managed nodes.
On HP-UX managed nodes, you place each workload in an nPartition (npar), a virtual
partition (vpar), a virtual machine (created using HP Integrity Virtual Machines), a processor
set (pset), or an fss group.
