5 Using PRM with HP System Management Homepage (SMH)
HP System Management Homepage (SMH) enables you to perform various system administration tasks on a system through a single web interface. You can also configure and monitor PRM through SMH.
Quick start to using PRM’s SMH interface
The following steps outline how to use PRM’s SMH interface. For more information on configuring PRM using the SMH interface, see the PRM online help.
1.Determine which configuration model you are going to use.
For information on planning your configuration, see “PRM configuration planning ” (page 37).
2.Log in to HP System Management Homepage.
For more information, see the hpsmh(1M) manpage. Additional SMH documentation is available on http://docs.hp.com by selecting the Network and Systems Management link.

NOTE: If the above links are not present, run the following command:
#/opt/prm/bin/prmsmhconfig -c
and log in to SMH again as indicated in Step 2.
4.Create your configuration file.
For help in determining the resource allocations in your initial configuration, see “Using prmanalyze to quickly identify resource use” on (page 42) .
For configuration tips, see “Configuration tips and requirements” (page 53).
To create configuration files, once you navigate to the PRM interface, select the Configure tab.
For information on how to use SMH to create the configuration, see the online help.
5.Load the configuration. There are two types of loads:
•Move processes to assigned groups
To initialize, moving user processes to the owners’ initial groups and moving applications to their assigned groups
•Keep processes in current groups
To keep the existing assignments of users, processes, and groups
On the Configure tab, select the desired type of load and select the Load button. Any resource managers needed based on the types of records in the configuration will be automatically started.

On the Configure tab, in the Resource Manager Configuration area, change options as desired for the loaded configuration file and then select the Apply button.
