MC/ServiceGuard NFS Toolkit Versions

A.11.00.05 and A.11.11.02 Release Notes

Announcements

MC/ServiceGuard NFS Toolkit versions A.11.00.05 and A.11.11.02 are major releases. Both of

these versions have dependencies on MC/SG A.11.13 that provide the integrated solution for

multiple MC/ServiceGuard partner software working together under the new MC/SG

framework. MC/SG NFS Toolkit has been re-architected to ﬁt under the new framework.

MC/ServiceGuard NFS Toolkit A.11.00.05 is for HP-UX 11.0 only.

MC/ServiceGuard NFS Toolkit A.11.11.02 is for HP-UX 11.11 only.

What’s new in MC/ServiceGuard NFS Toolkit A.11.00.05 and A.11.11.02

The new features include:

• NFS related control functions and variables have been extracted from MC/ServiceGuard

package control script to a separate NFS speciﬁc control script, hanfs.sh. When the

MC/ServiceGuard package is started, it will check for this script under the package

directory, and if it exists, will invoke NFS control script.

• An easy troubleshooting mechanism has been provided. Customers can easily identify if a

problem resides in MC/SG NFS Toolkit from the MC/SG package log ﬁle.

• MC/SG NFS Toolkit will not need to roll with MC/SG releases. Customers can obtain new

features in MC/SG package control script or conﬁguration ﬁles from new MC/SG releases.

• MC/ServiceGuard NFS Toolkit A.11.11.02 supports VxVM as an alternative disk storage

management technology.

NOTE MC/ServiceGuard NFS Toolkit requires MC/ServiceGuard A.11.13 (or above)

since MC/SG NFS Toolkit now uses the new framework from MC/SG which

provides the integrated solution for multiple MC/SG partner software working

together.
