The HP DESMS User Interface

Starting HP DESMS

If this is the first time you are running HP DESMS, you must run the /opt/hpwebsuite/hpsetup startup script first.

To start HP DESMS, start the HP administration server by typing /opt/hpwebsuite/start-admin.

Accessing HP DESMS

To begin configuration of your HP Domain Enterprise Server using HP DESMS, start a web browser that supports frames and is Java-enabled (such as Navigator 3.0) on a system attached to your network.

Point the browser to the following URL:

http://hostname:8181

where hostname is the name of the system on which you are running the HP administration server.

Enter the administration user ID (hpadmin) and password (which you configured using the /opt/hpwebsuite/hpsetup startup script).

This URL points to the HP Domain Enterprise Server Management System (HP DESMS). This is the HP Domain Enterprise Server web-based administration interface that allows you to:

•Control the HP and Netscape administration servers

•Configure the Internet firewall to secure your organization against intrusion

•Manage central operations and problem management for distributed systems

•Configure and administer a system in your management domain

•Monitor, add, modify, and delete nodes in your management domain
