The System
Management utility (SYSMAN) is a facility supporting the cluster
work of the security administrator. Through its centralized management
of nodes and clusters, SYSMAN lets you perform system management
tasks from your local node that the utility executes on all nodes
in the target environment.
To use SYSMAN requires OPER privilege on the local node and
authorization for the OPER privilege on any remote node. The utility
does not require a password when you are operating within a cluster
in your own account. The operating system audits any logical link
connections or any operation in which the utility requires a password.
System managers using SYSMAN should be careful that logical
names are set to the same name on each node.
