Serviceguard at a Glance
Using SAM
Chapter 1 31
Using SAM
You can do many of the HP-UX system administration tasks described in
this manual (that is, tasks, such as configuring disks and filesystems,
that are not specifically Serviceguard tasks) by using SAM, the System
Administration Manager.
To launch SAM, enter
/usr/sbin/sam
on the command line. As of HP-UX 11i v3, SAM offers a Terminal User
Interface (TUI) which also acts as a gateway to the web-based System
Management Homepage (SMH).
To get to the SMH for any task area, highlight the task area in the
SAM TUI and press w.
To go directly to the SMH from the command line, enter
/usr/bin/sam -w
For more information, see the HP-UX Systems Administrator’s Guide,
posted at http://docs.hp.com (choose 11i v3 under Operating
Environments, then choose System Administration), or use the Help
on the System Management Homepage.
