Conclusion
HP-UX 11i provides a rich set of tools to support single system management. Designed from direct
customer input, the latest generation of HP-UX 11i system management tools reflects the real needs of
today’s IT administrators who must manage a dynamic environment with smaller staffs and reduced
budgets.
With HP-UX 11i system management tools, administrators gain the performance, accessibility, and
efficiency they need to succeed. The choice of an enhanced CLI, menu-driven TUI, and web-based
GUI ensure that both experienced and junior administrators alike can be productive quickly when
working with HP-UX 11i. In addition, these single-system tools also work seamlessly with higher level
multisystem and enterprise management environments, including HP Systems Insight Manager and HP
OpenView products. As a result, administrators gain more visual abstracted views of their
heterogeneous IT assets, while also having the ability to automatically launch HP-UX 11i management
tools from within HP SIM or HP OpenView products when system-level precision tuning is required.
From end to end, HP provides comprehensive single system management tools, employing built-in
intelligence, flexibility, and increasing levels of automation to enable a dynamic link between
business process and IT resources. Administrators can work more proactively, efficiently, and
strategically, turning IT into a powerful competitive advantage for the business.
