BladeCluster Solution Manual

Configure SANMAN

CAUTION: You should neither configure nor start the $ZZSMN (SANMAN) process unless the

BladeCluster will be connected to a 6700 series ServerNet cluster. The SANMAN process supports

6770 or 6780 ServerNet cluster switches and is not useful unless these switches are present.

The ServerNet SAN manager process (SANMAN) must be configured:

• To be persistent. It should be configured to be started at all times.

• To have the process name $ZZSMN. You must set the NAME attribute to $ZZSMN. For this

process to work correctly with OSM and the guided procedures, the required symbolic name

is $ZZKRN.#ZZSMN.

• So that the $ZPM persistence manager stops the process by sending in an internal system

message. You must set the STOPMODE attribute to SYSMSG.

• With at least two processors (preferably more) in the CPU list (defined by using the CPU

attribute).

NOTE: For 2-processor systems, HP recommends that you specify (00, 01) for the CPU list.

For 4-processor systems, specify (02, 01, 03) for the CPU list. For systems of six or more

processors, specify (02, 05, 06, 03, 07, 04) for the CPU list.

To configure SANMAN, add this SCF command to your command file:

Configure SNETMON

SNETMON must be configured:

• To be persistent. It should be configured to be started at all times.

• To have the process name $ZZSCL. You must set the NAME attribute to $ZZSCL. For this
