50 Installing Command View SDM
Configuring Command View SDM
Once installed, it may be necessary to configure the operation of
Command View SDM. Configuration is required to perform the following
tasks:
■ Setting up remote client access
■ Configuring the Command View SDM web browser
■ Enabling EMS if necessary (HP-UX only)

■ access.dat - standard installation
■ authorizedClients.dat - HP OpenView Storage Area Manager

This localhost entry is required for Command View SDM host
operation and must remain in the file.

configuration file in a text editor. The file is located in the following

HP-UX and Linux: /opt/sanmgr/hostagent/config/
Windows: \sanmgr\hostagent\config\
HP OpenView SAM: \sanmgr\managementserver\config\
