High Availability
Monitors |
 |
High availability monitors allow you to check up on your system’s resources
and to be informed if problems develop. They can be used in conjunction
with Serviceguard. Monitors are available for disk resources, cluster
resources, network interfaces, system resources, and database resources.
When a monitor detects a problem, an alert is sent, allowing an
operator or administrator to correct the problem.

Release Notes for HP-UX 11i
MetroCluster |
|
MetroCluster is a Hewlett-Packard high availability product
for Serviceguard customers requiring integrated disaster recovery
solutions. MetroCluster provides automated failover of ServiceGuard
packages on local and remote high availability disk arrays. Integrating
MetroCluster with Serviceguard allows application packages to fail
over:
Between one
system that is attached locally to an array frame and another remote
node that is attached locally to another array frame.
Among local nodes that are
attached to the same array.
Two versions of MetroCluster are available:
MetroCluster
with Continuous Access XP provides a special package-control script
template to implement physical replication between HP SureStore
XP256 or XP512 disk arrays.
MetroCluster with EMC SRDF provides a special package-control script
template to implement physical replication between EMC Symmetrix
disk arrays.

ContinentalClusters |
|
ContinentalClusters is a Hewlett-Packard high availability
solution that provides disaster tolerant clustering over long distances. ContinentalClusters
employs semi-automatic failover of Serviceguard packages from a
primary cluster to a recovery cluster following a cluster event
that indicates serious disruption of service on the primary cluster.
The product consists of a set of configuration tools, a monitor
that sends notification of cluster-down events, and a command that
moves packages from one cluster to another. In addition, ContinentalClusters
includes the following components:
Cluster Object Manager, which provides
the ability to query ServiceGuard cluster status.
A special package control script template to implement
physical data replication between HP SureStore XP256 or HP512 disk
arrays.
A special package control script template to implement
physical data replication between EMC Symmetrix disk arrays.

HP ServiceControl |
|
HP ServiceControl is a system management environment including
high capacity HP HyperPlex clusters. It provides a consolidated
point for managing your workload, applications, and resources on
your system from a single management station. High availability
products, such as Serviceguard and HA Monitors, reside physically
on the HyperPlex cluster nodes.
HP ServiceControl organizes nodes into HyperPlex clusters.
Within these clusters, Serviceguard minimizes and eliminates application downtime
by
Protecting
mission-critical applications from a variety of hardware and software
failures by monitoring the health of each node.
Balancing the workload on
a system by responding quickly to changes and workload demands.
