Hi Shiv,

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 which these tools operate across.

Hi,

HP Servicecontrol Manager (SCM) provides a convenient multi-system management solution for HP-UX and Linux systems. You can access SCM using a Web-enabled graphical user interface or a command line interface. SCM enables you to execute HP-UX and Linux manageability tools, including custom tools and scripts, across multiple systems simultaneously.

Have a look at

Hi Shiv,

SCM is an easy-to-use, multi-system management solution with a Web-enabled interface and a command line interface. SCM delivers multi-system access to all key system administration tools for fault monitoring, configuration, and workload management. Administrators with multiple HP systems running primarily HP-UX or Linux benefit the most from using SCM.
