HP-UX Peripheral Devices (pdweb)
Peripheral device configuration and management is now supported by a combination of
commands and a Web browser-based graphical user interface (GUI) in the new HP-UX
Peripheral Device (v B11.23.01) tool. This new tool replaces the peripheral devices
functionality of the System Administration Manager (SAM) tool and introduces two new
commands:
pdweb (1m) and waconf (1m).
The Peripheral Device tool operates on a single system, similar to SAM. It can be used
stand-alone, is accessible from SAM, the Partition Manager tool, and Servicecontrol
Manager (SCM).
