Starting the MWTM Client

Before Starting the MWTM Client

When you start an MWTM client, the version and release of the client must match that of the MWTM server.

If there is a client-server mismatch, the MWTM displays a warning message when you try to start the client. If you have a web browser installed, the MWTM optionally opens a web page from which you can download an allowed, matching client. See Downloading the MWTM Client from the Web, page 11-7for more information about downloading the MWTM client.

Setting the DISPLAY Variable for Solaris or Linux Clients

If you see the following message upon client startup, you must set the DISPLAY variable:

Could not launch client: Can't connect to X11 window server using <x> as the value of the DISPLAY variable.

The DISPLAY variable is set as part of your login environment on Solaris or Linux. However, if you use Telnet or SSH to access a workstation, you must set the DISPLAY variable to local display by using this command:

#setenv DISPLAY local_ws:0.0

where local_ws is your local workstation.

If your shell does not support the setenv command, enter:

# export DISPLAY=local_ws:0.0

Starting the MWTM Client on Solaris or Linux

To start the MWTM client on a Solaris or Linux system on which the MWTM server is installed, ensure that the MWTM server is running, then enter:

#cd /opt/CSCOsgm/bin

#./mwtm client

To start the MWTM client on a Solaris or Linux system other than the one on which the MWTM server is installed, ensure that the MWTM server is running, then enter:

#cd /opt/CSCOsgmClient/bin

#./mwtm client

To start the MWTM client on a Solaris or Linux system other than the one on which the MWTM server is installed, and connect to an MWTM server other than the default server, enter:

#cd /opt/CSCOsgmClient/bin

#./mwtm client server_name_or_ip_address

where server_name_or_ip_address is the name or IP address of the Solaris or Linux system on which the MWTM server is running.
