Interaction Between IBM HACMP Management Components

The following diagram illustrates how the components involved in IBM High Availability Cluster Multiprocessing (HACMP) management interact. The AIM Server is a Windows Server on which SystemEDGE and the HACMP AIM run. The communication between the AIM and the HACMP cluster uses Secure Shell (SSH). Because CA Server Automation can connect to multiple clusters, CA Server Automation gains an overall view of your HACMP environment.

To add the required connection information for each required HACMP cluster, use one of the following methods:

The connection information is written to the configuration file on the managed node. The HACMP AIM polls the configuration file and starts monitoring your HACMP environment through the master node.
