NonStop NET/MASTER Management Services (MS)
NonStop NET/MASTER Management Services (MS) is a network management system
that allows you to monitor and manage a single NonStop S-series server or an entire
network, composed of both HP and IBM systems, from a single terminal. With NonStop
NET/MASTER MS you can:
•
View event messages generated by both local and remote systems throughout a
network
•
Issue commands to remotely control and gather information about any peer system
in the network, and have the responses displayed on your local terminal
•
Run system utilities, TACL routines, and other external conversational mode and
page-mode applications
•
Write and execute custom applications and operations management automation
procedures with the NonStop NET/MASTER Network Control Language (NCL), a
high-level language created specifically for automating system and network
management tasks
•
Browse local log files containing messages that report activity occurring throughout
the network
•
Tailor your operations environment to suit the needs of your own system and
network
TSM and OSM Packages
The TSM package is a client-server application that provides troubleshooting,
maintenance, and service tools. The TSM package consists of software components
that run on the NonStop S-series server and on a PC-compatible workstation. The
TSM software on the workstation features a GUI that contains extensive online help.
Some of the tasks that can be performed using the TSM software include:
•
Starting the NonStop S-series server
•
Identifying system components and configurations
•
Displaying physical and logical views of the system configuration
•
Checking the current status of system components and browsing event logs
•
Performing maintenance actions on specified customer-replaceable units (CRUs)
and field-replaceable units (FRUs), such as the Ethernet 4 ServerNet adapter
(E4SA), Fast Ethernet adapter (FESA), Gigabit Ethernet ServerNet adapter
(GESA), Gigabit Ethernet 4-port ServerNet adapter (G4SA), and the ServerNet/FX
adapter
•
Sending problem and configuration information to a service provider
