HP-UX System Management Homepage (Web-Based)
NOTE: Not all management functions can be performed using HP SMH. See volume
one of the HP-UX System Administrator’s Guide: Overview for additional information.
The HP-UX System Management Homepage (HP SMH) is a web-based interface for
managing one HP-UX system at a time. It completes the transfer of the System
Administration Manager (SAM) functions into web-based processes. In HP-UX 11i
Version 2, the management of kernel configuration, peripheral devices, and partition
management became web-based, using kcweb, pdweb, and parmgr, respectively. In
HP-UX 11i Version 3, most management functions can be accessed using the web-based
HP SMH interface.
HP SMH is tightly integrated with HP SIM. You can easily navigate to HP SMH from
the System Lists and System Pages in HP SIM.
For HP Superdome 2 systems, the Onboard Administrator (OA) manages partitions,
both nPartitions and vPars. OA is an extension of and a replacement of the Management
Processor (MP) on Superdome and other cellular-based systems.
PropPlus (SysMgmtPlus) displays HP SIM compatible overall system status on HP
SMH. PropPlus has been enhanced to support the following new and updated property
pages in HP SMH:
• Blade
• Cell Blade
• Memory
For more information about PropPlus properties, see hpsmh(1M).
The following chapters provide examples using HP SMH. See “System Management
Homepage (Web-Based)” (page 23). HP SMH is also described in the System Management
Homepage manual and the smh(1M).
HP-UX System Management Homepage (Text-Based)
The text-based HP-UX System Management Homepage (HP SMH) replaces the System
Administration Manager (SAM). It operates as a logged-in management tool. It uses
simple terminal-based screens. In some cases, the earlier screen-based and
X-Window-based displays have been retained. See “System Management Homepage
(Text-Based)” (page 27).
