IVM and VIO

IVM and VIO are basically the same thing. The difference is with IVM you do not need an HMC for it to work as the graphical interface used to create LPARs is on the VIO using IVM. Using IVM you can do everything that is possible with a VIO configured system. the main difference is with IVM you can only have one VIO server so there is no reslilience!

For an environment with dual VIO servers and multiple LPARs you will need an HMC and 5 or more internal (or SAN) disks: 2 each for mirrored rootvg on the VIO servers and the remaining disk(s) can be partitioned into client logical volumes and virtualised to the client LPARs using VSCSI devices.

NAME
fsweb - launch the Disks and File Systems tool of HP System Management Homepage (HP SMH) SYNOPSIS
DESCRIPTION
The Disks and File Systems tool is a system management tool that allows you to manage disks, logical volumes, and filesystems on HP-UX installed systems. This tool has a Web-based user interface (GUI) and a terminal user interface (TUI). The command can launch both the terminal user interface (TUI) and the Web-based interface (GUI) of the Disks and File Systems tool. In the case of TUI, the command launches the Disks and File Systems window in the HP SMH TUI. In the case of GUI, the command launches the Disks and File Systems tool of HP SMH. You must be a privileged user to access the Disks and File Systems tool. With the Disks and File Systems tool, you can configure the following: o Add, configure, or unconfigure disk devices, including hard drives, floppy drives, CD-ROMs and disk arrays. o Add, modify, or remove local file systems, or convert them to long file names. o Configure HFS or VxFS file systems. o Remote file systems, including: o Add, modify, or remove remote (NFS) file systems. o Add, modify, or remove cache file systems (CFS). o Add, modify, or remove common internet file system (CIFS). o Allow or disallow access by remote systems to local file systems. o Modify RPC (Remote Procedure Call) services' security. o Examine, create, extend, or reduce a volume-group pool of disks. o Create, extend or change number of mirrored copies of a logical volume and associated file system. o Remove a logical volume or increase its size. o Split or merge mirrored copies of a logical volume. This action is available on a system that has Mirror/UX product installed. o Distribute or undistribute volume groups (only on Serviceguard clusters running Serviceguard Extension for Real Applica- tion Cluster ). o Display hardware path information, device information, and select devices in eit her legacy or agile view. For more information, see intro(7). When you run it attempts to connect to a Mozilla Web browser running on the X server defined by the environment variable. If finds a running Mozilla client, it uses that client. Otherwise, initiates a new Mozilla session. The new session is initiated only if the Mozilla process is running in the same system as that referenced by the variable, unless the option is used. Note: By default, invokes the Mozilla Web browser. To support any other browser (for example, Netscape), set the environment vari- able as shown below: The command opens the terminal user interface if any of the following conditions are true: o The command is invoked with the option. o The environment variable is not set. The command opens the Web-based interface if all the following conditions are true: o The command is invoked with option. o The environment variable is set. o The command is available on the system. If the command cannot open the Web-based interface, the command opens the terminal user interface. Options recognizes the following options: Forces the use of a client browser, even when the X-traffic between the X-server and the Mozilla browser is not secure. Use the option only when the network traffic between the host where Mozilla is running and the host in the environment variable is secure. The option causes to invoke the Web-based interface. If cannot start the Web browser, it starts the terminal interface of the Disks and File Systems tool. Generate a temporary login bypass key. The bypass key enables the privileged user to access the Web interface without having to provide login information again. The option causes to invoke the Web-based interface of the Disks and File Systems tool. Open the terminal user interface for managing disks, logical volumes, and file systems regardless of the current setting of the environment variable. Other Ways to Start the Tools You can also start the Disks and File Systems tool using one of the following methods: o Invoke and select the functional area to launch the terminal user interface or press on the keyboard to launch the Web-based interface. o Type the URL in the address bar of the Web browser to open the Web-based interface. The hostname is the name of the server. o Open the HP-UX Systems Insight Manager on the server and select the Network Configuration tool from the Online Help The online help is available with the product. The online help provides information on how to use the tool. RETURN VALUES
