Installing EMS
EMS checks the resources for local systems only. EMS is most effective when installed and
configured on all systems in your environment.
EMS must be installed on each node that you want to monitor. EMS can be installed on a running
system in a multiuser mode.
NOTE: Updated monitors may have new status values that change the meaning of your
monitoring requests. When you update a monitor:
• Check for recent updates of the EMS bundle to ensure compatibility with the new monitor.
• Review your existing monitoring requests to ensure that they are current and reasonable
for the new monitor.
IMPORTANT: In a Serviceguard cluster environment, EMS must be updated on each node in
the cluster.
