Setting Up a Veritas Enterprise Administrator (VEA) Client

To run VEA and administer a local or remote system, ensure that you have sufficient privileges.

Also, ensure that the VxVM and the VEA server are installed on the same machine to be

administered and that the vxconfigd daemon and the VEA server are running.

• Administer a local HP-UX system:

# /opt/VRTSob/bin/vea&

• Administer a remote system:

# /opt/VRTSob/bin/vea -host <remote_machine_name> &

Invoking VEA from HP-UX System Management Home Page

System Administration Manager (SAM) is deprecated in HP-UX 11i v3. HP System Management

Homepage (HP SMH) is the system administration tool for managing HP-UX 11i. SMH provides

web-based systems management functionality, at-a-glance monitoring of system component

health and consolidated log viewing. SMH also provides Terminal User Interfaces (TUIs).

Some of the key changes are described below:

• The SAM Functional Area Launcher (FAL) is replaced by the SMH web-based Graphical

User Interface (GUI)

• The enhanced Terminal User Interface (TUI) offers improved look & feel, online viewing of

man pages, command previews and other improvements.

• A new command, /usr/sbin/smh (smh(1m)) is introduced which is an enhanced version

of /usr/sbin/sam.

• The SAM command /usr/sbin/sam is deprecated. Any invocation of /usr/sbin/sam

will display the deprecation message and launch /usr/sbin/smh automatically.

The Veritas Enterprise Administrator (VEA) from Symantec Corporation, is the graphical interface

for managing VxVM and VxFS. You can invoke VEA from HP SMH as follows:
