Serviceguard NFS Toolkit A.11.31.04 Release Notes (March 2009)

Announcement

Serviceguard NFS Toolkit A.11.31.04 supports Serviceguard A.11.18 and the Veritas Cluster File

System (CFS). In a CFS environment, all nodes in the Serviceguard cluster can concurrently access

the files in the CFS. The NFS servers in the cluster can concurrently access and export directories

in the CFS. As a result, CFS enables NFS clients (typically located outside the cluster) to

concurrently use multiple NFS servers to access files. If an NFS server or a package fails, the

adoptive nodes do not have to mount disks from the failed system, since the disks are already

mounted on the adoptive node. This feature provides improved performance, scalability, and

availability.

Serviceguard NFS Toolkit A.11.31.04 contains defect fixes for the HP-UX 11i v3 March 2009

release. For information about these defect fixes, see “New Fixes in the Version A.11.31.04”
