The Cluster Manager (Java Console) enables you to administer your cluster. You can use the different views in the Cluster Manager (Java Console) to monitor and manage clusters and Veritas Cluster Server (VCS) objects, including service groups, systems, resources, and resource types.

If you want to manage clusters using the Cluster Manager (Java Console), the latest version is available for download from http://go.symantec.com/vcsm_download.

You need a free SymAccount to download the Cluster Manager (Java Console). You can obtain a SymAccount at: https://symaccount.symantec.com/SymAccount/index.jsp.

You cannot use the Cluster Manager (Java Console) to manage new features in Veritas Storage Foundation and High Availability releases 6.0 and later, for example, the Virtual Business Service (VBS) feature, using the Cluster Manager (Java Console). The Veritas Cluster Server Management Console is deprecated. Symantec recommends using Veritas Operations Manager instead to manage Storage Foundation and Cluster Server environments.

Veritas Operations Manager provides a centralized management console for Veritas Storage Foundation and High Availability products. You can use Veritas Operations Manager to monitor, visualize, and manage storage resources and generate reports.

You can download Veritas Operations Manager at http://go.symantec.com/vom.
