A Compatibility with agents
The gWLM CMS runs on HP-UX 11i v2 (B.11.23), HP-UX 11i v3 (B.11.31), and Microsoft Windows
systems. It works with the following versions of the agents:
• gWLM A.03.00.00.05: HP-UX 11i v1, HP-UX 11i v2, HP-UX 11i v3
• gWLM A.03.00.01.05: HP-UX 11i v1, HP-UX 11i v2, HP-UX 11i v3
• gWLM A.04.00.07: HP-UX 11i v1, HP-UX 11i v2, HP-UX 11i v3
• gWLM A.04.01.00.*: HP-UX 11i v1, HP-UX 11i v2, HP-UX 11i v3
• gWLM A.6.0.0.*: HP-UX 11i v1, HP-UX 11i v2, HP-UX 11i v3
• gWLM A.6.2.0.*: HP-UX 11i v1, HP-UX 11i v2, HP-UX 11i v3
• gWLM A.6.3.*: HP-UX 11i v1, HP-UX 11i v2, HP-UX 11i v3
• gWLM A.7.0.0.*: HP-UX 11i v2, HP-UX 11i v3
• gWLM A.7.1.0.*:HP-UX 11i v2, HP-UX 11i v3
• gWLM A.7.2.0.*: HP-UX 11i v2, HP-UX 11i v3
• gWLM A.7.3.0.*: HP-UX 11i v2, HP-UX 11i v3
• gWLM A.7.4.0.*: HP-UX 11i v2, HP-UX 11i v3
NOTE: While gWLM does support the earlier agent versions listed above, you are encouraged
to upgrade to the latest version.
Use the gwlmstatus command on a managed node to determine the version of the gWLM agent
software on that node.
Also, all gWLM agents within an SRD must be the same version: A gWLM CMS can manage an
SRD that uses only A.04.00.07 agents, only A.03.00.01.05 agents, only A.03.00.00.05 agents,
and so forth.
The new features introduced with a new agent version are typically not backward-compatible. For
information on the key features supported with each supported agent version, see the section
"Working with earlier gWLM versions" in gwlmxml(4).
gWLM 7.4 and later supports coexistence with Service Guard on VSP 6.x.
