Serviceguard Manager is the graphical user interface for Serviceguard product.
With it, you can monitor, administer, and configure clusters managed
by Serviceguard, Serviceguard Extension for RAC, Metrocluster, Continentalclusters,
and Serviceguard Extension for Faster Failover.
Serviceguard Manager replaces ClusterView and the SAM High Availability
tool. It can be launched independently, from HP Systems Insight
Manager, or from OpenView.
You install Serviceguard Manager on a management station,
which can be any computer running HP-UX, Linux, or Windows. From
there, you connect to a node with Serviceguard version A.11.13 or
later. This node becomes your Session Server; it will go out on
its subnets and query for information about Serviceguard objects.
You can see the discovered clusters, nodes, and packages in your
session on the tree and map, and more information in Properties
and Alerts.
You can also do administrative commands through the interface, if
the Session Server and target clusters are running Serviceguard version A.11.14
or later. The administrative actions are:
Run or halt a cluster, node, or package
Move a package to a new node
Change package- and node-switching flags
You can also create and modify Serviceguard configuration
of clusters and packages if the target node or cluster has Serviceguard
A.11.16 or later installed.
An icon on the toolbar warns you about new problems, whether
the Serviceguard object is in your current view or not. High-availability alerts
are posted when Serviceguard Manager polls. The Alerts window has
aids for analyzing the problems.
If your HP-UX cluster nodes are configured for SNMP, you can
receive their SNMP cluster trap messages in the SNMP Browser window.
You can set your management station as a trap destination from a
tab in the window. Messages can be sorted and re-organized.
