Hi Manuales:

MP = Maintnance (or Management) Processor

GSP = Guardian Service Processor

The details differ slightly depending on the model of hardware your're using, so you should consult the hardware manuals for your specific system. In general they allow you to control and monitor the hardware.

EMS = Event Monitoring Service

EMS is used to perform software resource monitoring. You can download a current version from here:

i tried to start it ..
$ /usr/sbin/xstm

[Manuales]

i did the following:

$ $ DISPLAY=192.100.200.300:0.0
$ export DISPLAY
$ echo $DISPLAY
192.100.200.300:0.0

Hi (again) Manuales:

You can use 'cstm' in lieu of 'xstm'. The "c" means character-based whereas the "x" stands for the X-Windows based tool.

To use an X-windows tool you must set and export the DISPLAY environmental variable to match the IPaddress of the client (PC) on which the X-Window (or emulator) is running.

# export DISPLAY=$(who -uR|awk -v ME=$$ '$7==ME {print $8":0.0"}')

[Manuales]

$ export DISPLAY=$(who -uR|awk -v ME=$$ '$7==ME {print $8":0.0"}')
$ echo $DISPLAY
mabcdefg.patito.com:0.0
$ /usr/sbin/xstm
Error: Can't open display: mabcdefg.patito.com:0.0

why does the error appear? !!!!!

Help please :0)

First, try to get cstm working before
wasting time trying to get X Windows
plus xstm working :)

Once cstm is working, then you can
ask yourself: do I happen to be accessing
this HP-UX box via an X-Windows session?
If the answer is "yes", then you can probably
run xstm. Although the complicated $DISPLAY
stuff probably works well, it certainly
relies on shell programming (and that the
shell you use works the way the poster expected). For a shorthand, find out the
name of the computer running X Windows
(e.g., Reflection X or some other X Server
(hummingbird, XFree86, etc) ... let's say
the name is fred.mydomain.com. On the
HP-UX system, set the env variable DISPLAY
to "fred:0.0" (usually, sigh, sometimes it
might have to be "fred:1.0" or "fred:0.1",
which I've seen happen rarely). In some shells, that would be:

export DISPLAY="fred:0.0"

xstm

(If you have something simpler, you could
try: xeyes, or xclock, or some other X-aware
application.)

Good luck!

This is the output:
root@server1p # xhosts +
sh: xhosts: not found.

i'm using CRT as emulator (for doing telnet)

:( .... why does not worked xhosts?
