HP Serviceguard for Linux Advanced Version 12.00.00 Release Notes, May 2014

IMPORTANT: After the Serviceguard Manager RPM installation is complete, you need to follow
the procedure described later in this section to start sgmgr service and also create a user which
can be used as a replicated user for multi-cluster management.
Note: Only sgmgr user can perform configuration tasks.
A replicated user is a user created on one or more systems with same user name and password.
A replicated user on all systems or a user in the central directory services like LDAP is necessary
to perform multi-cluster management.
If the LDAP central directory service is not configured and you want to perform multi-cluster
management, you must create replicated users as necessary.
Note: If you already have sgmgr user created on the system or if the LDAP is configured, the
following procedure to create a replicated user is optional.
To create a replicated user:
1. Export the SGMGR_ENV environment variable:
SGMGR_ENV=<replicated user password>
where, <replicated user password> is the password that you want to set for
Serviceguard Manager (sgmgr) user.
NOTE: Installation of Serviceguard Manager for Linux B.12.00.00 automatically creates a
user called sgmgr and password for this user is taken from the SGMGR_ENV environment
variable.
2. Run the following command:
/opt/hp/cmcluster/serviceguardmanager/Serviceguard_manager_setup -u
-l <jetty location> -o config
