prmrun [-w]
prmrun [-gtargetgrp| -i ] [application[arguments]]
Availability: Any user can run the prmrun command. The user must also have permission to execute
the application.
The prmrun command launches a designated application in a PRM group.
Table 27 describes the available options.
Table 27 prmrun user options/parameters
DescriptionOption/parameter
Lists the PRM groups the invoker can access. The first group in the list is the
invoking user’s initial group.
No options
Displays version information and exits.-V
Prints a list of the PRM groups the invoking user can access in wide-column
format, exceeding the 30-column default if necessary to avoid clipping any
names. The first group in the list is the invoking user’s initial group. (Although
this option is still supported, you do not need to specify it as its behavior is now
the default.)
-w
Launches an application in the specified targetgrp. Use this option when
the application is not assigned to the targetgrp in the PRM configuration
file. Checks are performed to see if the targetgrp appears in the user’s list
of accessible groups in the configuration file.
targetgrp cannot be a parent in a group hierarchy.
-gtargetgrp
Launches an application in the user’s initial group.
Any user can launch an application in the user’s initial group using the -i
option, as long as the user has permission to execute the application.
-i
Launches application, with any specified arguments, in its assigned group,
unless -gtargetgrp or -i is specified.

prmsmhconfig
Syntax:
prmsmhconfig [{ -c | -u}] [-h]
The prmsmhconfig command configures or unconfigures the PRM GUI to be available in HP
System Management Homepage (SMH).
Table 28 describes the available options. Specifying no option is the same as specifying the -h
option
Table 28 prmsmhconfig options/parameters
DescriptionOptions/parameters
Configure the PRM GUI for SMH.
You must run prmsmhconfig -c so that you can access PRM’s interface in
SMH.
NOTE: Run prmsmhconfig -c after SMH is installed.
PRM’s interface in SMH is available by following the links:
Tools -> Resource Management -> Manage PRM Groups
-c
Unconfigure the PRM GUI for SMH, removing the Manage PRM Groups link
from SMH.
This command is run when PRM is removed from the system.
-u
