Hi Manuales:

You should have STM & EMS installed! The Support Tools and EMS Hardware Monitors will do this for you.

Hi Manuales:

You can do:

# swlist|grep -i -e support -e ems

...to verify that your Support Tools and EMS are installed.

There is a wealth of documentation here:

Probably a good idea to install big brother: Google the phrase big brother hp-ux to find a download site.

That will monitor these things for you and let you know if they exceed a certain threshold.
