About the Book

This is the most detailed, most readable, most practical guide to HP-UX 11.x system administration you can find. Walk through all the issues associated with setting up and configuring an HP-UX 11.x system; HP-UX 11.x file types, file system layout, and Logical Volume Manager; performance analysis including the command line, GlancePlus/UX, and PerfView; networking with TCP/IP, Ethernet, and NFS; and more. Understand the HP-UX System Administration Manager (SAM) in depth. Learn how HP-UX supports the Common Desktop Environment (CDE), and discover HP-UX shell programming for system administrators. The book includes detailed coverage of HP-UX 11.x system auditing, system recovery with Ignite-UX, and the increasingly crucial topic of Windows NT interoperability. The book's CD-ROM contains an unprecedented collection of trial software for HP-UX administration, development and interoperability with NT systems. You'll also find a convenient 4-page fold-out/tear-out vi reference card for fast answers to your vi challenges. For all HP-UX system administrators: HP-UX represents 40% of the UNIX marketplace today.
