only (nothing listens on port 2381, so that port fails). When it contacts port 2301 (http), then the HP-UX
Apache-based Web Server starts on port 2381 (https), and the page redirects.
Automatic startup on boot
This mode starts HP SMH automatically during system initialization. If the automatic startup on boot
start mode is enabled and the system was rebooted using this configuration, you can access HP SMH
using a web browser and navigating to https://hostname:2381/. Daemons listen on both
http://hostname:2301/ and https://hostname:2381/. If you use port 2301 (http), then the HP-UX
Apache-based Web Server starts on port 2381 (https), and the page automatically redirects.
NOTE:
is possible on an HP-UX operating system only.
Manual startup
You can start HP SMH from the HP-UX CLI.
Configure the startup mode of the HP SMH server and the Tomcat instance using
/opt/hpsmh/bin/smhstartconfig script.
Syntax: smhstartconfig [ -a {on|off} -b {on|off} ] [ -t {on|off} ]
Options:
-a {on|off}
-b {on|off}
-t {on|off}
You can start HP SMH from the HP-UX CLI.
To configure the Apache version to be used by the HP SMH (HP-UX 1 1i v3), execute the following
script.
smhstartconfig -v {2.0|2.2}
where, selecting:
If you do not specify an option, then smhstartconfig displays the current startup mode. The
smhstartconfig command does not accept -a on and -b on options simultaneously.
For more information, see the smhstartconfig (1M) manpage:
man smhstartconfig or man sam
After changing the autostart mode to "on boot" (with the smhstartconfig -b on -a off command),
you can start the HP-UX Apache-based Web Server processes with the /opt/hpsmh/lbin/hpsmh
start command without rebooting.
Disabling port 2301
You can disable port 2301. In the smhpd.xml file the <port2301> tag by default is set to True. To disable
port 2301, you must set the value to False. You can use the smhconfig command to modify the configuration.
For more information about using the smhconfig command, see the smhconfig (1M) manpage.
