4    SysMan Station

SysMan Station is used by the system administrator or system manager to manage both single systems and clusters. Using the Monitor Window, you can select specific subsystems to monitor and display events that have been posted for those subsystems. When a monitored system is in a trouble or failed condition, the Monitor Window will display the error condition by changing the color of the status light for that system.

The View Window of the SysMan Station provides a graphical representation of a system in a hierarchical (tree) structure. Default views are provided. Additionally, you can customize and save views to let you see only the system components that you want to monitor or administer. Using the View Window, you can run applications to administer or configure system devices. You can also display details (properties) of individual objects.

Use SysMan Station to:

• Monitor the status of a system or cluster

• Display detailed information about a system or cluster

• Provide a single location for management activity

• Display events and track events that lead to a problem
