NAME
hpsmh - starts or stops the HP System Management Homepage server
SYNOPSIS
/opt/hpsmh/bin/hpsmh
[ autostart | stop ]
DESCRIPTION
The HP System Management Homepage is the management server for web based System Administration
tools. In order to use HPSMH, start a web browser on your desktop or workstation, and type in the URL or
Address to the server to manage:
http://hostname:2301
By default, the HP SMH management server under HP-UX only starts on demand. It does not run con-
tinually. A daemon listens on port 2301 to start an instance of the management server. The above URL
automatically starts the management server, then redirects your browser to the secure port from which to
login:
https://hostname:2381.
The hpsmh command starts or stops the HPSMH server. If no options are specified,
hpsmh displays the
possible options.
Options
The
hpsmh command supports the followings options:
autostart Starts the HPSMH Server if is not currently running
stop Stops the HPSMH Server
Access Control
By default, only members of the root user group can login to HPSMH. Within HPSMH you can configure
additional user groups to have HPSMH access.
You must be a superuser to run the hpsmh command.
Certificates
Installing HPSMH will generate an SSL self signed certificate. Because this certificate is self signed, when
connecting to HPSMH your web browser will prompt you with a warning that the certificate was issued by
a web site, company or Certificate Authority you have not chosen to trust.
It is possible to proceed by accepting this self signed certificate temporarily for each session. You can also
view and install (accept permanently) this certificate to avoid this warning in the future. HPSMH also sup-
ports installation of certificates created by a Certificate Authority.
