| From the daily tasks of system management -- adding
users, monitoring performance, performing health checks
to planning for expansion -- HP and its partners offer
you a suite of solutions to enhance your productivity,
efficiency, and control of simple and complex installations.
In the world of UNIX, this means embracing multivendor
UNIX installations. For HP and our partners, it means
even more than that. |

The SysMan Menu suite
of graphical tools for Tru64 UNIX, makes your job as
a system administrator easier by providing you with
a graphical interface for your administrative tasks.
You can expand administrative categories in the SysMan
Menu so that you can quickly find the task you need,
invoking the best available application to do the job.
SysMan Station provides
a high profile view and status of a system's physical
and logical objects. It is the central point from which
to manage a Tru64 UNIX system.

Setting up client workstations just got easier with
HP's Quick Setup utility.
Quick Setup determines the configuration utilities
that are right for your system, then uses a wizard-like
interface to help you set up your client systems.
Do you have a massive installation on your hands?
Use Installation Cloning to generate
identical installations with less effort and run the
installations with minimal intervention. Save time
and reduce the chance of error because Installation
Cloning eliminates the need for manual installations.
Installation Cloning also allows you to administer
the software centrally, instead of attempting concurrent
installations with locally-mounted removable media.

Whether you are responsible for a single workstation
or a large cluster of servers, using SysMan Menu and
SysMan Station makes it easy to administer those systems.
Use SysMan Station to monitor a single system, a group
of systems, or an entire cluster. When you need to
do an administrative task, launch the SysMan Menu or
invoke applications directly from the SysMan Station's
Tools menu.

HP Insight Management Agents running
on a Tru64 UNIX system check the system's health and
provide data including system information, percent
of the filesystem used, and SCSI controller/device
information. Insight Manager uses the industry-standard
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP).
SysMan Station lets you monitor a Tru64 system through
its graphical display. You can tell at a glance if
your Tru64 UNIX system or cluster is running normally
or if there is a problem.
SysMan Station with SysMan Menu gives you a means
for easily maintaining a Tru64 workstation, server,
or cluster from a variety of remote platforms, including
PCs.

With Tru64 UNIX, you don't need special hardware for
sophisticated system administration, and with a cluster's
Single System Image, you manage many servers the same
way you would manage a single server, significantly
reducing your total cost of ownership.
You can run Insight Manager, SysMan Station and SysMan
Menu from a graphical interface, or a browser on a
PC. It's your choice. SysMan Menu is also available
from a character cell interface, so you can take advantage
of its ease of use from an ASCII terminal.

Ordinarily, administering a cluster of servers can
be a daunting challenge. The cost to administer a cluster
rises with the number of servers in a cluster. HP provides
world-class management of multi-system configurations
with the ease of managing a single system. With SysMan
Menu and SysMan Station, there is a common set of administrative
tools that are tailored for use within a cluster, easing
the workload and driving down your management costs.
With remote management, your choice of interface,
and automated tasks, the cost of owning a network of
Tru64 UNIX systems just became more manageable because
Tru64 UNIX increases administrative efficiency without
requiring specialized hardware.
