HPE Matrix OE for HPE Integrity servers

HPE Matrix OE is advanced lifecycle management software for HPE Integrity servers which enables you to instantly adjust to dynamic business demands - with the new addition of infrastructure orchestration, not only can you easily plan, configure, and automate your physical and virtual resources in the same way, but now you can also provision and modify a complex infrastructure in minutes.

HP-UX Software Assistant (SWA)

HP-UX Software Assistant (SWA) is a command-line based tool that consolidates and simplifies patch management and security bulletin management on HP-UX systems. The SWA tool is new for HP-UX releases as of January 2007, includes Security Patch Check (SPC), and is the HPE-recommended utility to use to maintain currency with HPE-published security bulletins for HP-UX software.

HP-UX Workload Manager

HP-UX Workload Manager (HP-UX WLM) is a resource management tool that provides automatic processor resource allocation and application performance management based on your service-level objectives (SLOs) and business priorities. WLM is most effective managing applications that are processor-bound. It automatically adapts system or partition CPU resources (cores) to the demands, SLOs, and priorities of the running applications. (A core is the actual data processing engine within a processor, where a single processor can have multiple cores, and a core can support multiple execution threads through Hyper-Threading, introduced with HP-UX 11i v3, as discussed below.) It adjusts the CPU allocation of a group of processes known as a workload, basing adjustment on the current needs and performance of the applications in that workload.

HPE Global Workload Manager

The workload management capability for HPE Integrity servers is provided by the HPE Global Workload Manager component of HPE Insight Dynamics - VSE. HPE Global Workload Manager (gWLM), is an intelligent policy engine that automatically allocates resources among multiple workloads to increase server utilization while meeting service levels for high-priority applications. Designed to work across multiple HP-UX 11i, OpenVMS and Linux environments, the workload management features are ideal for large, centralized IT environments that host applications for many departments.

HPE Matrix OE

HPE Matrix OE capabilities let you provision infrastructure in minutes to automatically activate physical and virtual servers, storage, and networking from pools of shared resources. Whether you need a single virtual machine or infrastructure for a complex three-tier application, Matrix OE finds available resources, streamlines the approval process, and automatically provisions and configures what's needed across infrastructure silos. Delivering infrastructure to the business becomes faster, more efficient, and more reliable.

Performance Manager and Agent

HPE Performance Manager, Agents, and Monitor combine to provide a powerful and flexible distributed management solution. This solution is a single interface for centrally monitoring, analyzing, and forecasting resource utilization for distributed multi-vendor environments, enabling you to offer the best possible level of service in a cost-effective manner.

Process Resource Manager

HPE Process Resource Manager (HPE PRM) is a resource management tool used to control the amount of resources that processes use during peak system load. HPE PRM can manage allocation of the following resources:

  • CPU: Ensures a minimum allocation of CPU; can also simultaneously cap CPU resource usage for each group in the configuration. (Starting with HP-UX 11i v3, per-group capping is available.)
  • Memory: Ensures a minimum allocation of private real memory; can also cap private memory usage. Allows you to allocate an exact amount of shared memory.
  • Disk bandwidth: Ensures a minimum allocation of disk bandwidth

HP-UX Containers

One method that Matrix OE uses to improve server resource utilization is to consolidate multiple applications within a single operating system image. HP-UX Containers combine kernel level security and prove resource management to stack multiple applications within the same operating system. HP-UX Containers and HP-UX Workload Manager can dedicate specific resources to specific applications within an operating system image, avoiding resource contention issues. Using HP-UX Containers11i v3 Security Containment, organizations can ensure that application instances cannot access processes or file from other applications or the system. This ensures that multiple application instances run securely in a consolidated environment, providing the benefits of consolidation while preserving the security of a scale out environment. For software licensing purposes, the maximum number of CPUs in HP-UX Containers can be capped. This capability is part of the HP-UX Base Operating Environment (BOE).

Secure Resource Partitions

One method that HPE Insight Dynamics - VSE uses to improve server resource utilization is to consolidate multiple applications within a single operating system image. Secure Resource Partitions combine kernel level security and proven resource management to stack multiple applications within the same operating system. HPE Process Resource Manager and HP-UX Workload Manager can dedicate specific resources to specific applications within an operating system image, avoiding resource contention issues. Using HP-UX 11i v3 Security Containment, organizations can ensure that application instances cannot access processes or files from other applications or the system. This ensures that multiple application instances run securely in a consolidated environment, providing the benefits of consolidation while preserving the security of a scale out environment. For software licensing purposes, the maximum number of CPUs in a Secure Resource Partition can be capped.

Platform security fundamentals
For the past 25 years Hewlett Packard Enterprise has been building one of the most trustworthy and secure UNIX operating systems on the market. Designed for the optimal protection against both external and internal threats. HP-UX 11i offers industry-leading breadth and depth of UNIX security features. Focused on comprehensive security integration aimed at proactively mitigating risk, reducing compliance cost and accelerating time to implementation, HP-UX security solutions significantly lower IT costs. This set of fully integrated and complementary features is designed to provide layered security with in-depth protection of all your enterprise assets by protecting all these aspects of data, systems, data and identity security. HP-UX independently validates its comprehensive security portfolio through Common Criteria security evaluation. For more details, visit:
https://www.hpe.com/us/en/servers/hp-ux.html

Protecting systems:
One critical factor in enterprise security is system minimization and hardening. HP-UX 11i offers a set of security features designed to address known and unknown vulnerabilities by running only the services that are needed, thus minimizing a potential point of attack. The following security features have built-in mechanisms not only to minimize and harden the system, but also to detect and react to attack in real time:

  • Bastille system hardening
  • Host Intrusion Detection System
  • Secure Resource Partitions
  • IPFilter - firewall technology
  • Software Assistant (security bulletin currency)
  • Install-time Security
  • Boot Authentication
  • Standard Mode Security Extensions
  • Shadow Passwords
  • Strong Random Number Generator

Protecting data:
HP-UX 11i offers data protection in many forms: protecting data in transit, in use and at rest. By using security features designed to protect data in its three forms, HP-UX 11i customers can minimize possible breaches not only in terms of data loss, but in customer trust as well. Several security features offer data protection capabilities to HP-UX customers:

  • Encrypted volume and file system
  • Trusted Computing Services
  • Security containment
  • OpenSSL
  • IPSec
  • Secure Shell
  • MD5sum

Protecting Identity:

In modern day global enterprise companies, managing identity is not an easy task , especially as identity management requirements grow to include employees, contractors, partners and suppliers across many countries with various privacy protection laws and regulation. HP-UX 11i dramatically simplifies this critical task by integrating various identity management technologies which offer ease of use and adherence to compliance regulation:

  • Identity Management Integration
  • Select Access for IdMI
  • Role-based Access Control
  • AAA Server
  • HPE Directory Server for HP-UX
  • LDAP-UX Client
  • Kerberos Server
  • Kerberos Client Services
  • PAM Kerberos

NOTE: Hewlett Packard Enterprise also offers many additional security features available through open source software for HP-UX.

Common Criteria certification
Many enterprise and government customers require this vendor-independent security certification because it increases confidence in the product's security assurance, functionality, quality and effectiveness. Many governments, including the United States, require certification for government IT procurement.

Certification evaluations are only conducted by the evaluation agency after release of the product. HP-UX 11i v3, has been actively evaluated to the Common Criteria (CC) Security standards for many years. A history of our achievements include:

  • February 2003: Certification of HP-UX 11i V1 achieves A CC to Evaluation Assurance Level 4
  • May 2006: Certification of HP-UX 11i V2 to the current EAL4 Common Criteria
  • May 2008: Certification of HP-UX 11iV3 achieved including hard partitions (nPars)
  • December 2009: Certification of HP-UX 11iV3 to CCOPP profile including soft partitions (vPars)

Common Criteria certifications continue to be an integral part of our HP-UX comprehensive security portfolio. HP-UX 11i v3 has successfully completed a new Commercial off the Shelf (COTS) Compartmentalized Operations Protection Profile (CCOPP) evaluation. This new CCOPP evaluation encompasses the extensive range of security solution for HP-UX 11i v3 including soft partitioning or Virtual partitions (vPars) as well as the previously certified hard partitions (nPars).

Memory

DIMM installation guidelines:

  1. All DIMMs must be DDR3 registered memory modules (R-DIMMs)
  2. All four DIMM slots in a memory bank must be populated. For each CPU, the memory banks are designated as follows: first bank consists of pairs A and B, second bank consists of pairs C and D and the third bank consists of pairs E and F.
  3. Banks must be populated in sequential Alphabetic order, starting with bank A and B for CPU0, followed by banks A and B for CPU1, etc.
  4. All four DIMMs in a memory bank must be identical. Install identical DIMMs in quads, starting with DIMM pairs A and B CPU0.
  5. DIMMs must be installed in decreasing capacity with the largest DIMMs installed in the smallest numbered DIMM slot.
