| What is the HP Availability Manager? |
| Product description |
The HP Availability Manager is a system management
tool that, from an OpenVMS Alpha or a Windows node, enables
you to monitor one or more OpenVMS Alpha, VAX, or I64 nodes on an extended local area
network (LAN). This tool helps system managers and analysts target
a specific node or process for detailed analysis.
The Availability Manager collects system and process data from
OpenVMS nodes using the Availability Manager Data Collector. It
displays the data from multiple nodes simultaneously using a
graphical user interface (GUI) front-end, the Availability Manager
Data Analyzer.
The Availability Manager tool evolved from the OpenVMS-only
DECamds product and its Motif GUI.
Because the Availability Manager Data Analyzer is a Java
application, it runs on both Windows and OpenVMS 64-bit platforms.

| Hardware and software requirements: |
The table in this section lists the hardware and software
requirements for the Data Analyzer and Data Collector on
OpenVMS and Windows nodes.
Notes:
- Differing versions of the Data Analyzer and Data Collector
will display and collect only data that is common to the capabilities of both components.
- As a prerequisite to installing Availability Manager software,
you must install the latest PCSI patch kit.
This is explained further in
the Availability Manager installation instructions.
