Serviceguard Manager Version A.04.02 Release Notes

Installing and Running Serviceguard Manager

Chapter 1 39

•Open a DOS window. At the DOS prompt, enter the SGMgrDOS.exe

command. Depending on your system path setup, you may have to

enter the SGMgr directory (by default C:\Program

Files\Hewlett-Packard\ServiceGuard Manager\bin). You can also

enter options, as listed below in sgmgr Command Syntax.

It is best to put quotes around command and file path names.

Launching Serviceguard Manager from HP Insight Manager or

OpenView

Within Insight Manager or OpenView, you can launch SGMgr from the

menu bar or by clicking the SGMgr icon.

When Serviceguard Manager installs, it checks to see if HP Insight

Manager or OpenView are installed. If either are present, Serviceguard

registers itself with the program. Therefore, if you have both, you want

to install Serviceguard Manager after you install Insight Manager or

OpenView. If you already have Insight Manager or OpenView installed,

simply de-install Serviceguard Manager, then re-install it.

sgmgr Command Syntax

The basic command to launch Serviceguard Manager in Linux or HP-UX

is sgmgr. In Windows, it is SGMgr.exe or SGMgrDOS.exe. The options are

listed below. If you do not mention an option with the command, you will

be prompted to specify it in a window after the interface opens.

• To open a saved (static) file:

—The -f <filename> option opens a saved .sgm file. Enter the

pathname of the saved file, in quotes. This option is not used

with any other options.

• To open a Session Server connection and see a map that you can

update; repeat these options for each session:

—The -s <servername> option specifies a node with Serviceguard

A.11.13 or later. This node will become your Session Server.

Serviceguard will discover the other clusters on its subnet, and

report back their configuration and status information.

— If you specify the -s option, you may also specify the -l

<username> option to give the logon name of a user on that

server.
