Serviceguard Manager Version A.04.02 Release Notes, February 2005

Serviceguard Manager Version A.04.02 Release Notes
Patches and Fixes in this Version
Chapter 1 57
— First: With non-Windows systems running Mozilla, go to the
browser menu and select Preferences -> Navigator -> Helper
App. For the setting Field Value, put the following:
extension jnlp
mime type application/x-java-jnlp-file
handled by application <patch-to-javaws>/javaws.exe
— Second: When updating, you need to manually clear the Java
Web Start cache on the SIM client side. It contains the jar files
downloaded from the server. Before installing the new
Serviceguard Manager, clear the cache and the server will
automatically download the new jar files.
JAGaf12970 Service commands that contain quotes are not
passed to control script.
• What is the problem? This happens when you are using Guided Mode
and letting Serviceguard Manager create your control script
automatically. If you enter a service command with quotes in it, such
as /usr/bin/X11/xclock -title "My Xclock", your quotes will be
ignored when they are transferred.
After the script is Applied, the target control script in
/etc/cmcluster/<pkgName>/<pkgName>.sdf.sh contains
something like this: SERVICE_CMD[0]="/usr/bin/X11/xclock -title
My Xclock"
• What is the workaround? Do not use quotes in service commands if
you are creating the control script through Guided Mode.
JAGef13948 Property sheets appear to hang when storage is bad.
(fixed in version A.04.02)
• What is the problem? The timeout for checking storage status may
not work. When you open Properties, Serviceguard issues an ioscan
to find status of the disks. If you have a bad disk in your cluster, you
may see “Please wait” on the network tab for a very long time,
perhaps more than an hour. It appears that Serviceguard Manager
has hung; actually, it is not timing out when the status request is not
returned. This can also happen when you do a Save As command.
