Serviceguard Manager Version A.05.02 Release Notes, March 2009

The node running the COM must allow these connections:
▲ from Serviceguard Manager to the COM node:
tcp on port 5303 - and allow only packets with the SYN flag•
▲ from cluster nodes to the COM:
tcp and udp on port numbers 49152-65535 from the cluster nodes•
▲ to the cluster nodes
tcp on port 5302 - and allow only packets with the SYN flag•
• udp on port 5302
Each cluster node should allow SNMP connections between it and the Serviceguard Manager node. The
Event Browser in Serviceguard Manager can receive messages from SNMP traps. SNMP requires ports 161
and 162. The list of port assignments is in the /etc/services file.
Because SNMP uses a single dedicated port, only one application can receive messages. For more information
about SNMP, open online help and go to Troubleshooting Clusters , SNMP Problems.
Installing and Running Serviceguard Manager
• You can install Serviceguard Manager A.05.02 on the following:
• HP-UX workstation
• HP-UX server (with or without Serviceguard)
• Linux workstation (with or without Serviceguard)
• on a PC with Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional with Service Pack 1 or later, Windows XP
Professional Edition, Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2008, or Windows Vista
• There are two ways to install Serviceguard Manager: from the HP Serviceguard Distributed Components
disk, or from the HP web site http://hp.com/go/softwaredepot. You can choose the English,
Japanese, Korean, Simplified Chinese, or Traditional Chinese version. Serviceguard Manager installs
its own Java Runtime Environment (JRE) and cannot use any other JRE already on the computer.
• If you have an earlier version, uninstall it first before installing the new version.
• If you are on HP-UX and updating from A.03.00.01 or later, a prompt will offer to remove the earlier
version for you, and then replace it with the new.
• If you update from a version of Serviceguard Manager earlier than A.03.00, your user preference files
will be replaced with newer default settings. Preference files changed in A.03.00.01, and earlier
settings cannot be carried over.
NOTE:
• Serviceguard Manager supports system default colors for all platforms. Most system settings work,
but a custom color setup could cause problems. For example, you may see what seems to be an
empty box. However, when you drag the mouse to highlight it, you may discover that your system
is displaying white font on a white background. If you restore the system to default colors, you
will be able to see things as they were designed.
NOTE: Managing older SG clusters (A.11.17 and earlier) via SIM requires Serviceguard Manager A.05.02
to be installed on the SIM CMS.
NOTE: Serviceguard Manager B.0x.xx is integrated with SIM 5.3.1 and later. If you plan to launch SG
Manager B.0x.xx (which manages SG clusters A.11.17.01 and later) from SIM 5.3.1, you do not need to
install SG Manager A.05.xx on the SIM 5.3.1 CMS.
