Starting Cabletron CoreWatch
The method you use to start CoreWatch depends on whether you installed it in the Solaris
or Windows environment. If you choose to integrate CoreWatch with HP OpenView or
Cabletron SPECTRUM during installation, you can start CoreWatch from within either
environment in both Solaris and Windows NT/Windows 95/98.
Separate discussions on starting CoreWatch in the Solaris and Windows environments
and from within SPECTRUM or HP OpenView follow.
Starting CoreWatch in Solaris
To start CoreWatch in the Solaris 2.5.1 or 2.6 environment, enter the following command
at the Solaris prompt:
where <ipaddr> is the IP address of the SSR and <community-string> is the SSR’s

Notes:
•If the CoreWatch command is not found, you can locate it in /opt/CScw/bin.
If you do not supply the <ipaddr> and the <community-string> parameters, the
CoreWatch Login Dialog box appears and prompts you for them.
Starting CoreWatch in Windows NT or Windows 95/98
