NAME

       hpsmh - starts or stops the HP System Management Homepage server

SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

       The  HP	System	Management Homepage is the management server for web-based System Administration tools. In order to use HPSMH, start a web
       browser on your desktop or workstation, and type in the URL or Address of the server to be managed:

       By default, the HP SMH management server under HP-UX only starts on demand.  It does not run continually. A daemon listens on port 2301	to
       start  an  instance of the management server.  The above URL automatically starts the management server, then redirects your browser to the
       secure port from which to login:

       The command starts or stops the HPSMH server.  If no options are specified, displays the possible options.

   Options
       The command supports the followings options:

	      Starts the HPSMH Server if is not currently running

	      Stops the HPSMH Server

   Access Control
       By default, only the root user can login to HPSMH.  Within HPSMH you can configure additional user groups to have HPSMH access.

       You must be a superuser to run the command.

   Certificates
       Installing HPSMH will generate an SSL self signed certificate.  Because this certificate is self signed, when connecting to HPSMH your  web
       browser	will prompt you with a warning that the certificate was issued by a web site, company or Certificate Authority you have not chosen
       to trust.

       It is possible to proceed by accepting this self signed certificate temporarily for each session.  You can also view  and  install  (accept
       permanently)  this certificate to avoid this warning in the future.  HPSMH also supports installation of certificates created by a Certifi-
       cate Authority.

RETURN VALUES

       The command returns:

	      upon successful completion
	      if the command failed

EXAMPLES

       Starts HPSMH Server:

       Stops HPSMH Server:
