VMS Help SYSMAN  *Conan The Librarian (sorry for the slow response - running on an old VAX)

   The OpenVMS System Management (SYSMAN) utility centralizes the
   management of nodes and cluster environments. To avoid requiring
   users to log in to individual nodes and repeat a set of management
   tasks, SYSMAN allows users to define a management environment to be
   a particular node, a group of nodes, or a cluster environment.  With
   a management environment defined, users can perform system management
   tasks from a local node. SYSMAN executes these tasks on all nodes in
   the target environment.

   Managing a system with SYSMAN is similar to the traditional management
   of an individual system because SYSMAN uses many of the same software
   tools.  SYSMAN can process most DCL commands, including MOUNT, DEFINE,
   INITIALIZE, SET, and SHOW. It can also execute many OpenVMS system
   management utilities and command procedures such as AUTHORIZE, AUTOGEN,
   and INSTALL.

   More online help is available from the SYSMAN utility.  To invoke
   SYSMAN, enter the following command in response to the DCL prompt:

      $  MCR SYSMAN

   The utility responds with the prompt:

      SYSMAN>

   After you invoke SYSMAN, you can enter HELP or any of the SYSMAN
   commands.
