NAME

fsweb — launch the Disks and File Systems tool of HP System Management Homepage (HP SMH)

SYNOPSIS

fsweb [-F] [-b]

fsweb -t

DESCRIPTION

The Disks and File Systems (fsweb) tool is a system management tool that allows you to manage disks, logical volumes, and filesystems on HP-UX installed systems. This tool has a Web-based user interface (GUI) and a terminal user interface (TUI).

The fsweb command can launch both the terminal user interface (TUI) and the Web-based interface (GUI) of the Disks and File Systems tool. In the case of TUI, the fsweb command launches the Disks and File Systems window in the HP SMH TUI. In the case of GUI, the fsweb command launches the Disks and File Systems tool of HP SMH.

You must be a privileged user to access the Disks and File Systems tool.

With the Disks and File Systems tool, you can configure the following:

  • Add, configure, or unconfigure disk devices, including hard drives, floppy drives, CD-ROMs and disk arrays.

  • Add, modify, or remove local file systems, or convert them to long file names.

  • Configure HFS or VxFS file systems.

  • Remote file systems, including:

    • Add, modify, or remove remote (NFS) file systems.

    • Add, modify, or remove cache file systems (CFS).

    • Add, modify, or remove common internet file system (CIFS).

    • Allow or disallow access by remote systems to local file systems.

    • Modify RPC (Remote Procedure Call) services' security.

    • Examine, create, extend, or reduce a volume-group pool of disks.

    • Create, extend or change number of mirrored copies of a logical volume and associated file system.

    • Remove a logical volume or increase its size.

    • Split or merge mirrored copies of a logical volume. This action is available on a system that has Mirror/UX product installed.

    • Distribute or undistribute volume groups (only on Serviceguard clusters running Serviceguard Extension for Real Application Cluster ).

    • Display hardware path information, device information, and select devices in eit her legacy or agile view. For more information, see intro(7).

When you run fsweb, it attempts to connect to a Mozilla Web browser running on the X server defined by the DISPLAY environment variable. If fsweb finds a running Mozilla client, it uses that client. Otherwise, fsweb initiates a new Mozilla session. The new session is initiated only if the Mozilla process is running in the same system as that referenced by the DISPLAY variable, unless the -F option is used.

Note: By default, fsweb invokes the Mozilla Web browser. To support any other browser (for example, Netscape), set the BROWSER environment variable as shown below:

export BROWSER=/opt/netscape/netscape

The fsweb command opens the terminal user interface if any of the following conditions are true:

  • The command /usr/sbin/fsweb is invoked with the -t option.

  • The DISPLAY environment variable is not set.

The fsweb command opens the Web-based interface if all the following conditions are true:

  • The command /usr/sbin/fsweb is invoked with -F option.

  • The DISPLAY environment variable is set.

  • The command /opt/hpsmh/lbin/samweb is available on the system.

If the fsweb command cannot open the Web-based interface, the command opens the terminal user interface.

Options

fsweb recognizes the following options:

-F

Forces the use of a client browser, even when the X-traffic between the X-server and the Mozilla browser is not secure. Use the -F option only when the network traffic between the host where Mozilla is running and the host in the DISPLAY environment variable is secure.

The -F option causes fsweb to invoke the Web-based interface.

If fsweb cannot start the Web browser, it starts the terminal interface of the Disks and File Systems tool.

-b

Generate a temporary login bypass key. The bypass key enables the privileged user to access the Web interface without having to provide login information again.

The -b option causes fsweb to invoke the Web-based interface of the Disks and File Systems tool.

-t

Open the terminal user interface for managing disks, logical volumes, and file systems regardless of the current setting of the DISPLAY environment variable.

Other Ways to Start the Tools

You can also start the Disks and File Systems tool using one of the following methods:

  • Invoke /usr/sbin/sam and select the Disks and File Systems functional area to launch the terminal user interface or press w on the keyboard to launch the Web-based interface.

  • Type the URL http://hostname:2301/fs/fsweb.cgi in the address bar of the Web browser to open the Web-based interface. The hostname is the name of the server.

  • Open the HP-UX Systems Insight Manager on the server and select the Network Configuration tool from the Configure -> HP-UX Configuration menu.
