IBM High-Availability Cluster Multi-Processing sensor

The IBM® High-Availability Cluster Multi-Processing (HACMP) sensor discovers HACMP clusters and associated components. The sensor discovers information about the cluster, nodes, resource groups, local resource groups, application resources, cluster manager, service IP label, shared file system, node network addresses, and site information.

Sensor name that is used in the GUI and logs

HACMPSensor

Prerequisites

The HACMP service and the cluster manager daemon must be running on the target computers.

Security issues

Privileges to execute the following commands on the discovered systems are required: lssrc, clstat, cltopinfo, clRGinfo, cllsserv, cllsif, cllsfs, clshowres, cllsgrp, get_local_nodename, cllssite.

Limitations

The following limitations apply:
  • Agile Service Manager supports only Apache servers that are running on the HACMP cluster.
  • Only one application server can run on the HACMP resource group.
  • When the clstat command, which is used by Agile Service Manager to check the status of the HACMP cluster, fails, the sensor runs the odmget command. However, the scope of data that is discovered by the odmget command is limited because it does not include the state and substate attributes of the HACMP cluster object.
