Collecting data for a workload with a HP Serviceguard package
You can associate a monitored workload with a Serviceguard package. This association
allowsVirtualization Manager to show workloads moving from one system to another within
minutes of a Serviceguard migration. It also allows Capacity Advisor to show an uninterrupted
history of utilization data for a workload across migrations.
Associating monitored workloads and Serviceguard packages requires that Serviceguard and
the corresponding version of the Utilization Provider have been installed on all member systems
of the Serviceguard cluster. For specific version information, see the HP Insight Software 6.2
