HP Serviceguard Storage Management Suite overview

In addition to the traditional packaging of Serviceguard as a stand-alone product, part of Application Release (AR), or part of an operating environment (MCOE, HAOE, or DCOE), software bundles are available through the Serviceguard Storage Management Suite offering. All of these include Serviceguard, ECMT, a version of Veritas Storage Foundation (Standard, Enterprise, Database, or CFS), and additional features that provide enhanced storage management and database integration capabilities. The HP Serviceguard Cluster File System for RAC bundle also includes SGeRAC. Each of these bundles is designed to provide a comprehensive set of software tools suited to a particular application environment.

In addition to the HP Serviceguard Storage Management Suite, Logical Volume Manager (LVM) and Shared Logical Volume Manager (SLVM) configurations continue to be supported with Serviceguard in the same cluster and on the same node. However, CFS support is only available by installing one of the Serviceguard Storage Management Suite bundles T2775xx through T2777xx or their equivalent operating environment add-on bundles.

Additional software in some of the bundles includes enterprise tools, such as Dynamic Storage Tiering (DST), FlashSnap, Checkpoints, and additional Database Tools, including Oracle Disk Manager (ODM) for Oracle and SGeRAC. The bundle product numbers are as follows:

T2771xx: HP Serviceguard Storage Management (SGSM)

T2773xx: HP Serviceguard Storage Management for Oracle (SGSMO)

T2774xx: HP Serviceguard Storage Management for Oracle Premium (SGSMOP)

T2775xx: HP Serviceguard Cluster File System (SGCFS)

T2777xx: HP Serviceguard Cluster File System for RAC (SGCFSRAC)
