What’s in this Version
Serviceguard Manager version A.04.00 was released with Serviceguard
A.11.16 on HP-UX. You can use it to create and modify configuration of
Serviceguard A.11.16 clusters and packages.
Serviceguard Manager version A.04.02 is being released as Serviceguard
extends A.11.16 support to Linux nodes. Now Serviceguard Manager
users can create and modify clusters and packages with Linux nodes
where Serviceguard A.11.16 is installed.
These features are new to version A.04.02:
• Creating and modifying Linux nodes with Serviceguard A.11.16
installed.
• Lock LUN is now supported. Information about Lock LUN now
appears in Properties and configuration screens.
The following features were added in Serviceguard Manager A.04.00:
• In Serviceguard Manager A.04.00, you can create or modify
configuration of clusters and packages on nodes with Serviceguard
version A.11.16.
Many of your configuration options are discovered by Serviceguard
and displayed in lists for you to select. The configuration file and
control script can be automatically created, then distributed to the
nodes by clicking a button.
• Serviceguard Manager uses the Serviceguard Access Control Policies
to view, administer, and configure Serviceguard Version A.11.16
clusters and packages. The access policies are defined in the cluster
or package configuration. In addition to the configured role, you still
need the root password to configure clusters and packages, but
monitoring and administrating do not require root password.
• Serviceguard Manager’s Properties have several new tabs, and now
display information about physical volumes, volume groups, EMS
resources, and access control policies (roles).
• The new Operations Log window shows messages for administration
and configuration actions. Messages from all operations are
integrated into the one screen.
