Although it is possible to use more than one utility for the machines in the cluster, it is recommended that you use only one across all the machines. Ensure that the software is installed and running on all relevant machines.
Tip: The software you use on each machine in the monitored cluster is specified in the cluster’s site topology file. See Start PU Method Setting .
