For more information on the MXCS tasks, see the SQL/MX Connectivity Service Administrative

Command Reference and the NSM/web online help. For information on installing, uninstalling,

and managing NSM/web, see the HP NonStop SQL/MX Release 3.2.1 Installation and Upgrade

Guide. Starting with SQL/MX Release 3.2, a new tool, called NonStop SQL/MX Database Manager

(MXDM), is available. The new tool enables you to view and manage MXCS objects. For information

on viewing and managing the MXCS objects, such as MXCS Services, data sources, and MXCS

user permissions, see the HP NonStop MXDM User Guide for SQL/MX Release 3.2.1.

Managing MXCS Services

Only user ID’s with MXCS OPERATOR permission can perform MXCS management tasks. See

“Operation Access Controls” (page 15) for information about MXCS permissions.

Logging on

To make changes to the MXCS configuration, you must be logged on with a user ID that has

OPERATOR permission. User IDs with USER permission can only view the configuration. Use

NSM/web to view the user permissions assigned.

Displaying the MXCS Service Status
