Monitor package switch and resources

[Laszlo Csizmadia]

Is there a simple and easy way to monitor if a SG package was moved to other node? I want to get an email if it happens.
Is there a tool (part of MissionCritical OS or free) to monitor cluster resources which has some alerting mechanism?
OV could handle all of this but not unfortunately available here.

Thanks in advance,
Laszlo

You could look at using EMS to monitor this, or use Serviceguard Manager, a free GUI client downloadable from software.hp.com

Hi,

you can add the mail command in the package script.

somethings like the followings...

function customer_defined_run_cmds
{
if [ $(hostname) = "[your secondary]" ]
then
mail.....
else
....
fi
}

Melvyn,

I wondering if EMS has capabilities to monitor SG packages. I though it can only monitor HW issues.

Warren,
thanks. Good trick to handle this on failover! But if the package not able to start at failover for any reason there will be no alerts. Obviously is better than we have currently - no alerts at all:(

EMS HA monitor really do what I'm looking for. Thanks.
