HP-UX Kernel Configuration

HP-UX Kernel Configuration
Configuration tool allows users to tune both dynamic and static kernel parameters quickly and
easily from a Web based GUI to optimize system performance. This tool also sets kernel
parameter alarms that notify you when system usage levels exceed thresholds.
Partition Manager creates and manages nPartitions-hard partitions for high-end servers. Once the

partitions are created, the systems running on those partitions can be managed consistently with
all the other tools integrated into Servicecontrol Manager. Key features include:
Easy-to-use, familiar graphical user interface.
Runs locally on a partition, or remotely. The Partition Manager application can be run
remotely on any system running HP-UX 11i Version 2 and eventually select Windows
releases and remotely manage a complex either by 1) communicating with a booted OS on
an nPartition in the target complex via WBEM, or 2) communicating with the service
processor in the target complex via IPMI over LAN. The latter is especially significant
because a complex can be managed with NONE of the nPartitions booted.
Full support for creating, modifying, and deleting hardware partitions.
Automatic detection of configuration and hardware problems.
Ability to view and print hardware inventory and status.
Big picture views that allow system administrators to graphically view the resources in a
server and the partitions that the resources are assigned to.
Complete interface for the addition and replacement of PCI devices.
Comprehensive online help system.
Security Patch Check
Security Patch Check
Security Patch Check determines how current a systems security patches are, recommends

patches for continuing security vulnerabilities and warns administrators about recalled patches still
present on the system.
System Inventory Manager
System Inventory Manager
System Inventory Manager
System Inventory Manager is for change and asset management. It allows you to easily collect,
store and manage inventory and configuration information for HP-UX based servers. It provides an
easy-to-use, Web-based interface, superior performance, and comprehensive reporting
capabilities
Event Monitoring Service (EMS) keeps the administrator of multiple systems aware of system

operation throughout the cluster, and notifies the administrator of potential hardware or software
problems before they occur. HP Servicecontrol Manager can launch the EMS interface and
configure EMS monitors for any node or node group that belongs to the cluster, resulting in
increased reliability and reduced downtime.
Process Resource Manager
Process Resource Manager
Process Resource Manager
Process Resource Manager (PRM) controls the resources that processes use during peak system
load. PRM can manage the allocation of processor, memory resources, and disk bandwidth. It
allows administrators to run multiple mission critical applications on a single system, improve
response time for critical users and applications, allocate resources on shared servers based on
departmental budget contributions, provide applications with total resource isolation, and
dynamically change configuration at any time-even under load. (fee based)
HP-UX Workload Manager (WLM) A key differentiator in the HP-UX family of management tools,

Workload Manager provides automatic processor resource allocation and application
performance management based on prioritized service-level objectives (SLOs). In addition, WLM
allows administrators to set real memory and disk bandwidth entitlements (guaranteed minimums)
to fixed levels in the configuration. The use of workload groups and SLOs improves response time
for critical users, allows system consolidation, and helps manage user expectations for
performance. (Fee-based)
HP's Management Processor
HP's Management Processor
HP's Management Processor enables remote server management over the Web regardless of the
HP's Management Processor
system state. In the unlikely event that none of the nPartitions are booted, the Management
Processor can be accessed to power cycle the server, view event logs and status logs, enable
console redirection, and more. The Management Processor is embedded into the server and does
not take a PCI slot. And, because secure access to the Management Processor is available
through SSL encryption, customers can be confident that its powerful capabilities will be available
only to authorized administrators. New features that will be available include:
