Maintenance of NEC Express5800/ft series
The server maintenance can be done in two ways; one is to use NEC ESMPRO Manager for remote
maintenance and the other is to use the NEC ESMPRO Agent Server Maintenance Utility on the
server for local maintenance.
TIPS:
How to start NEC ESMPRO Agent Server Maintenance Utility that is installed on NEC
Express5800/ft series server
1. Go to the installation destination of NEC ESMPRO Agent.
The default installation destination of NEC ESMPRO Agent is /opt/nec/esmpro_sa.
Here, the destination is assumed to be /opt/nec/esmpro_sa.
2. Go to the storage location of Server Maintenance Utility:
cd bin
3. Start the tool:
./svmtnutl
For using the Server Maintenance Utility in Japanese, run the command below before
starting it. This command starts X Window and the screen will be displayed in the Japanese
fonts.
init 5
If you star the Server Maintenance Utility without starting the X Window, messages
displayed on the console may affect the screen display. If the screen is not displayed
properly, press Ctrl + L to refresh the screen.
The maintenance functions that can be executed from NEC ESMPRO include three types, those
common to all components, those specific to particular components, and general system settings.
The maintenance functions common to all components are operated in the same way basically (the
operation procedure and typical examples of screen images are described below).
The table below lists the maintenance functions common to all components.
