lsmsa(8)

NAME

lsmsa - Starts the Storage Administrator (SA) graphical user interface (GUI)

SYNOPSIS

/usr/bin/lsmsa

DESCRIPTION

SA is the graphical user interface for LSM and AdvFS. SA runs on a Tru64 UNIX system supporting the Java Runtime Environment. If LSM is not initialized and running, then the GUI starts in AdvFS-only mode. Issue the lsmsa command to display the SA main window. This window serves both as the starting point for all SA GUI-managed tasks and as a monitor for AdvFS and LSM object status. When the main window is displayed, a hierarchical view of AdvFS and LSM objects is presented. Clicking on an object displays the objects of that type and a table of information about them. The SA GUI requires that the SA daemon be running. It is automatically started by lsmsa. To start Storage Administrator, enter: /usr/bin/lsmsa The Session Initiation dialog box is displayed in which you enter the following information, then click on Ok: 1. The name of the system to be administered in the Host Server field 2. Root or your user name 3. The password associated with the account When the GUI is started, the system attempts to connect it with the server process on the host named in the Host Server field.

RESTRICTIONS

To use this utility, you must be the root user or be a member of the LSMSA administration group in the /etc/group file (lsmsa_admin by default).

FILES

$HOME/.lsmsa The SA preferences file stored in the user's home directory.
