System Management Console overview
Use the System Management Console to interact with the element manager
(System Manager) of the MCS software and hardware. The System Management
Console is a Java-based graphical user interface (GUI) that operates on a personal
computer (PC) that runs a supported Microsoft Windows operating system. Use
the System Management Console to
• administer system, database, and service components
• deploy and configure system sites, servers, components, and component
services
• monitor system using alarms, logs, and performance measurements
• manage collection of operations, administration, and maintenance information
System Management Console installation
Install the System Management Console on administrator workstations
(management PCs) during system deployment. The System Manager must be
deployed and operational before you can connect to the System Management
Console.

the English language.
