HP-UX System Administrator's Guide: Overview

where name_of_system_to_administer is the network hostname (or IP address)
of the system you want to administer. This will cause the web server on the system to
start a secure web interface to the HP SMH.
IMPORTANT: For remote web access to HP SMH to be successful, the system you are
trying to administer must have its web server running. By default, this means that
HP-UX must be at run-level 3 or higher. For a discussion of run-levels, “Run Levels”
(page 88).
If you type w in the TUI version of the HP SMH main menu you will launch the HP
SMH web interface on the X-Window server associated with your DISPLAY environment
variable.
Launching the HP SMH web interface from within the HP SMH terminal interface
starts a web server on the system you are administering (if one is not already running)
and starts a web browser to display the functional area (in HP SMH) corresponding to
the functional area that was highlighted in the TUI when you typed w.
IMPORTANT: Read carefully any warnings that appear when you start your web
browser. There are possible security implications in launching the System Management
Homepage in this way and HP SMH will identify safer alternatives to launch the System
Management Homepage via a secure http (https) URL should you require that.
NOTE: If you plan to launch the web based interface from within the terminal based
version of HP SMH, be sure to set your shell’s DISPLAY variable prior to starting the
terminal interface so that HP SMH knows where to direct the GUI display.
