Monitoring Clusters

Monitoring Clusters

üScope – Select clusters to be monitored

üSecurity for cluster discovery

üUsing map and tree for navigation

üTooltips – Map objects and badges

üAuto-refresh – Enable/Disable, polling interval

Connect andSelect Cluster to

be Monitored• Connect to the OM on a

ServiceGuard node withvalid user name andpassword (root or non-root)

• User can specify whichclusters to monitor,choosing from all theclusters that can bediscovered by the OM.

Cluster Focus vs. Node Focus

Node Focus vs. Package Focus

SNMP EventNotification

• Receives snmp traps fromthe nodes monitored

• Notifies the user of the statuschange

• Triggers refresh when a SG-related trap received

• Use Event Browser to seetraps received (500 entries)

• All traps are logged in logfiles

• Support HP-UX clusters only

Working with Event Browser

• Event received• Map refreshed

SNMP Configuration

ServiceGuard Manager Security

• SG Manager allows you to limit the clusters to be managedbased on customer security requirements.

• The OM cannot return information about a node without thenode's permission. The OM node must be listed in .rhosts or in/etc/cmcluster/cmclnodelist of each node to be discovered.

• Passwords are encrypted before they are sent over the network,and if they are saved for the next session.

• SNMP event notification: set-community name required toreceive traps

• Only the root user has administration capabilities.
