Scope of this Document

This cross reference guide addresses only functionalities that have been moved from SAM to HP SMH up to HP-UX March 2008 release. This guide does not cover the functional areas that are not part of SAM.

The functionalities in SAM and HP SMH are not mapped one-to-one. Hence, a functionality that is supported in the graphical user interface (GUI) of HP SMH might not be supported in the text user interface (TUI) of HP SMH.

Intended Audience

This document is intended for system administrators who want to use the HP-UX System Management Homepage (SMH) instead of the System Administration Management (SAM), which is deprecated HP-UX 11i v3 release onwards. Readers of this document must be familiar with HP-UX system administration.
