HP Insight Global Workload Manager 6.0 Software: User Guide

A Compatibility with agents

The gWLM A.6.0.0.* CMS runs on HP-UX 11i v1 (B.11.11), 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

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).
