HP-UX 11i Version 2 May 2005 Release Notes

General System Administration
HP Serviceguard
Chapter 5
115
Serviceguard Cluster Object Manager B.02.02.00 (and later)
Serviceguard Manager revisions A.04.00 and A.04.02 (and later) for Windows,
Linux and HP-UX
HP-UX Shadow Passwords revision B.11.11.02 (and later) for HP-UX 11i v1 or
11i v2 (and later) because this includes shadow passwords in the base OS.
Any previous revisions of Serviceguard, the Serviceguard Cluster Object Manager,
Serviceguard Manager, or HP-UX have not been tested and therefore will not be
supported with Shadow Passwords.
Serviceguard's use of dynamic ports does not work if the predefined Bastille
Sec20MngDMZ (MANDMZ.config) or Sec30DMZ (DMZ.config) configurations are
installed. These configurations use different IPFilter rules to define firewall
protection than the rules Serviceguard uses. The required IPFilter-SG rules are
documented in the HP-UX IPFilter Version A.03.05.09 Administrator's Guide at
http://docs.hp.com/en/B9901-90021/B9901-90021.pdf.
When the Serviceguard security patch of 2004 is installed, Serviceguard is not
compatible with the default settings for the HP-UX Bastille Sec10Host
configuration. The Sec10Host configuration disables the identd daemon, but
Serviceguard with the security patch requires the identd daemon to be running for
authentication purposes. For information on how to configure HP-UX Bastille
Sec10Host to allow the identd daemon to run, refer to the latest HP-UX 11i Version
2 Installation and Update Guide, available at
