dtadvfs(8) System Manager's Manual dtadvfs(8)
NAME
dtadvfs - Starts the AdvFS graphical user interface
SYNOPSIS
/usr/bin/X11/dtadvfs [options] [-N] [-C hostname]
OPTIONS
Turns off information messages about starting up the
asemgr utility. This message is displayed at startup and whenever the file system configuration is changed when the system is running
TruCluster Software. Connects to other hosts that are running the AdvFS GUI daemon, advfsd.
OPERANDS
Uses the standard X Windows options. See the X(1X) and xterm(1X) reference pages for information.
DESCRIPTION
The AdvFS graphical user interface (GUI) organizes AdvFS functionality into system management tasks and makes them available through a
graphical interface.
Issue the dtadvfs command to display the AdvFS GUI Main window. This window serves as both the starting point for all AdvFS GUI-managed
tasks and as a monitor for file-system status. When the Main window is displayed, disk-space usage information is shown for the host and
file domains.
From the Main window, you can choose tasks from the following menus: Choose GUI setup options or exit the GUI. Choose file domain, file-
set, clone, or volume configuration tasks. Choose what information displays on the main window or view devices and volumes information.
Choose file domain balance or defragment procedures.
Online help is available for all tasks and windows available through the GUI. To access help, click on the Help button in any window or
choose Help from the menu bar to display information.
RESTRICTIONS
You must be the root user to use this utility and you must register the Advanced File System Utilities license.
FILES
/Storage_Management/Dtadvfs
