NAME
fsweb — launch the Disks and File Systems tool of HP System Management Homepage (HP SMH)
DESCRIPTION
The Disks and File Systems
(fsweb)
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
fsweb
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
fsweb
command launches the Disks and File Systems window in the HP SMH TUI.
In the case of GUI, the
fsweb
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:
Add, configure, or unconfigure disk devices, including hard drives,
floppy drives, CD-ROMs and disk arrays.
Add, modify, or remove local file systems, or convert them to long file names.
Configure HFS or VxFS file systems.
Remote file systems, including:
Add, modify, or remove remote (NFS) file systems.
Add, modify, or remove cache file systems (CFS).
Add, modify, or remove common internet file system (CIFS).
Allow or disallow access by remote systems to local file systems.
Modify RPC (Remote Procedure Call) services' security.
Examine, create, extend, or reduce a volume-group pool of disks.
Create, extend or change number of mirrored copies
of a logical volume and associated file system.
Remove a logical volume or increase its size.
Split or merge mirrored copies of a logical volume. This action is available on
a system that has Mirror/UX product installed.
Distribute or undistribute volume groups
(only on Serviceguard clusters running Serviceguard Extension for Real Application Cluster
).
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
fsweb,
it attempts to connect to a Mozilla Web browser running on the X server
defined by the
DISPLAY
environment variable.
If
fsweb
finds a running Mozilla client, it uses that client.
Otherwise,
fsweb
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
DISPLAY
variable, unless the
-F
option is used.
Note:
By default,
fsweb
invokes the Mozilla Web browser.
To support any other browser
(for example, Netscape), set the
BROWSER
environment variable as shown below:
export BROWSER=/opt/netscape/netscape
The
fsweb
command opens the terminal user interface if any of the following conditions
are true:
The command
/usr/sbin/fsweb
is invoked with the
-t
option.
The
DISPLAY
environment variable is not set.
The
fsweb
command opens the Web-based interface if all the following conditions
are true:
The command
/usr/sbin/fsweb
is invoked with
-F
option.
The
DISPLAY
environment variable is set.
The command
/opt/hpsmh/lbin/samweb
is available on the system.
If the
fsweb
command cannot open the Web-based interface,
the command opens the terminal user interface.
Options
fsweb
recognizes the following options:
- -F
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
-F
option only when the network traffic between the host where Mozilla
is running and the host in the
DISPLAY
environment variable is secure.
The
-F
option causes
fsweb
to invoke the Web-based interface.
If
fsweb
cannot start the Web browser, it starts the terminal interface of the Disks and File Systems tool.
- -b
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
-b
option causes
fsweb
to invoke the Web-based interface of the Disks and File Systems tool.
- -t
Open the terminal user interface for managing disks, logical volumes, and file systems regardless of the current setting of the
DISPLAY
environment variable.
Other Ways to Start the Tools
You can also start the Disks and File Systems tool using one of the following methods:
Invoke
/usr/sbin/sam
and select the
Disks and File Systems
functional area
to launch the terminal user interface or press
w
on the keyboard to launch the Web-based interface.
Type the URL
http://hostname:2301/fs/fsweb.cgi
in the address bar of the Web browser to open the Web-based interface.
The
hostname
is the name of the server.
Open the HP-UX Systems Insight Manager on the server and
select the Network Configuration tool from the
Configure -> HP-UX Configuration menu.
