White Paper : Network Node Manager 7.x and MC/ServiceGuard

Overview The purpose of this paper is to present the issues and methodology for improving the availability of network management using Hewlett-Packard's OpenView Network Node Manager (NNM) together with MC/ServiceGuard. Two approaches are provided for implementation: a MxN setup and conventional setup. The primary goal from an HP perspective is to increase the availability of mission critical applications when compared to standard availability, but to do so at a reasonable cost. The conditions under which it was possible to have a corrupted NNM database will exist in the new configuration with MC/ServiceGuard. While a system crash will force the migration of the NNM processes to the surviving system, the crash can still potentially corrupt an NNM database.

The end of client/server as we know it?

The problem with the setup, he claims, is that companies deploy the idea in one place and when it works, decide to move everything over to that style of architecture. But largely thanks to the Web, all of these can co-exist.

Virtualisation: Architectual Considerations and other Evaluation Criteria

In the past several years, server virtualisation technology has moved quickly and firmly into the IT mainstream. Of the many approaches to system virtualisation available in the market today, VMware's hypervisor architecture has gained the greatest market acceptance. This paper examines the architectural issues, solution support, and enterprise readiness required when deploying such a virtualisation solution.
