on the command line. As of HP-UX 11i v3, SAM offers a Terminal User Interface (TUI) which also acts as a gateway to the web-based System Management Homepage (SMH).

To get to the SMH for any task area, highlight the task area in the SAM TUI and press w.

To go directly to the SMH from the command line, enter

/usr/sbin/sam -w

What are the Distributed Systems Administration Utilities?

HP Distributed Systems Administration Utilities (DSAU) simplify the task of managing multiple systems, including Serviceguard clusters. The tools provide:

Configuration synchronization

Log consolidation

Command fan-out

Configuration synchronization allows you to manage configuration changes from a single server, known as the configuration master; your other systems are defined as clients. Changes you make on the configuration master are propagated to all the clients.

Log consolidation allows you to simplify monitoring by consolidating logs from all systems into a single file sorted by time-stamp.

Command fan-out allows you to send the same command to all systems in your configuration in a single action.

For more information on DSAU, see the Distributed Systems Administration Utilities User’s Guide, at the address given in the preface to this manual.

A Roadmap for Configuring Clusters and Packages

This manual presents the tasks you need to perform in order to create a functioning HA cluster using Serviceguard. These tasks are shown in Figure 3.
