Serviceguard at a Glance
Using SAM
Chapter 132
Using SAM
You can use SAM, the System Administration Manager, to 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).
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/sbin/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. For HP-UX 11i v2, navigate
instead to 11i v2 and see Managing Systems and Workgroups.
