Commands
The Safeguard subsystem management commands are entered through SAFECOM.
Table 10-1
on page 10-4 described them briefly. The syntax of these commands is
described in detail in the Safeguard Reference Manual. The procedures you use to
install and monitor the Safeguard software are described later in this section.
General Installation Procedure
These general steps are required to set up and manage the Safeguard subsystem:
1. Install the Safeguard software. Choose the appropriate method, described in
Installing the Safeguard Software on page 10-5.
2. Start the SMP process. If the Safeguard software is not installed to start
automatically, you must start it manually, as described in Starting the SMP on
page 10-7.
3. Configure the Safeguard subsystem and set up basic access control lists to secure
sensitive components of your system. For more information, see Guidelines for
Securing the Safeguard Subsystem on page 10-12.
4. Monitor the status of your system, as described in Monitoring the Safeguard
Subsystem on page 10-14.
