sysman_menu(8) System Manager's Manual sysman_menu(8)
NAME
sysman_menu - Graphical interface to run system management tasks
SYNOPSIS
/usr/sbin/sysman [-ui cui | gui] [-display displayname] [-menu]
/usr/sbin/sysman [-accel] <accelerator> [arguments]
/usr/sbin/sysman [-menu] <name> [arguments]
/usr/sbin/sysman [-menu] -list
/usr/sbin/sysman [-menu] -help | -h
/usr/sbin/sysman -focus hostname
OPTIONS
Specifies the user interface to be invoked. The choices are: Specifies command line interface. Specifies graphical user interface. Speci-
fies the display screen on where sysman_menu displays its window. If the display option is not specified, sysman_menu uses the display
screen specified by your DISPLAY environment variable. The display option has the format hostname:server.number. The default is :0.0. For
more information, see the X(1X) reference page. In a TruCluster environment, some management tasks effect the cluster as a whole and some
are local to a specific cluster member. If a task requires focus, the "Choose a host to manage" dialog box will be displayed. To launch
the task directly, bypassing this dialog box, you can specify the -focus option. Directly invokes the task with that accelerator. Any
arguments are passed on to the task itself. Use sysman -list for a list of the accelerators.
If the accelerator is for a branch of the menu and not an executable task, then the menu hierarchy is expanded to display the con-
tents of the specified branch. Same as -accel option but the name of the task as displayed in the SysMan Menu is specified. For
example, sysman -menu "Manage local users". Any arguments are passed on to the task itself.
The name is for a branch of the menu and not an executable task, then the menu hierarchy is expanded to display the contents of the
specified branch. Displays a list of all the tasks that can be run from the SysMan Menu and their accelerators. Displays help for
the SysMan Menu.
DESCRIPTION
SysMan Menu is used by the system administrator to obtain system management data and run selected system management tasks. SysMan Menu pro-
vides a menu of system management tasks in a tree type display, with branches of management categories and leaves of actual tasks. Select-
ing a leaf or tasks invokes a task, which displays a dialog for performing the task.
SysMan Menu and its associated tasks can be run on an X Windows display, a terminal with curses capability, locally on a PC, or from a Web
browser. For detailed information in running SysMan Menu from a PC or a Web browser, please use your Web browser and go to:
http://your_machine_name:2301/SYSMAN/index.html.
Online help is available for the SysMan Menu. To get help, select the Help button.
