ServiceControl Manager (SCM) makes system administration more effective, by distributing the effects of existing tools efficiently across nodes. The ServiceControl Managed Cluster establishes the domain across which these tools operate. SCM Features: z Role-based management allows delegation of specific management activities to specific individuals on specific nodes or node groups without having to provide root access to the individual. z A Distributed Task Facility that improves operator efficiency by replicating operations across the nodes or node groups within the ServiceControl Managed Cluster with a single command. z Tools designed to deal with a single system (single system aware tools), like bdf, are dispatched to the target systems and their results collected for review. This mechanism can also be used to handle custom tools such as user-developed scripts or applications. A number of tools encapsulating HP-UX commands are provided with ServiceControl Manager. z Mechanisms for managing tools already designed to deal with multiple systems, such as Ignite-UX and Software Distributor. Such multiple system aware tools benefit from consistent node group-based targeting and role-based authorization across the tools. z Node groups simplify distribution of management activities across collections of nodes. Node group names can be chosen based on applications, system configuration or other meaningful attributes. Back to Top
