_________________________________________________________________
sysadm
menu-driven system administration program
_________________________________________________________________
SYNTAX
sysadm [ argument ]
DESCRIPTION
Only a superuser can use the sysadm command.
The sysadm program is a menu-driven set of procedures for doing
system administration tasks. Menu screens with interactive
queries help you choose and execute the commands to administer
the system. When you select a function, represented by a menu
selection, the sysadm program passes control to that function.
The function queries you for information, confirms the
information you supply, and carries out your request.
If you type sysadm without an argument, the top level menu of
system administration subcommands is displayed. Select again to
go to the function of your choice. If a subcommand is used as an
argument to the sysadm command, the menu of the subcommand is
displayed, that is, you go directly to that subcommand without
seeing the Main Menu.
For a complete explanation of the sysadm program, see Installing
and Managing the DG/UX System. The information on this reference
page is meant to serve as an outline of sysadm's functionality.
SUBCOMMANDS
Typing sysadm without an argument displays the Main Menu:

SYSADM MAIN MENU
1 diskmgmt Enter the Diskman program

Enter a number, a name, the initial part of a name,
? or <number>? for HELP, or q to QUIT:
Help?
Call up a help script on any menu item by typing the item number
followed by a question mark. If you don't understand a query,
type a question mark. For example, typing 9? will display a help
message on softwaremgmt usage.
To Exit
To exit at any time, type q or Q. At the menu level, q takes you
all the way out to the shell. At the query level, q takes you
back to the previous menu. To exit temporarily to perform a
shell command, type !command. For example, you could stop in the
middle of interacting with lpmgmt dialogues and type !mailx
diablo to send a mail message to diablo. At the conclusion of
the mailx command, you are returned to your previous position in
the sysadm program.
Navigating in Sysadm
Use the ^ entry to back up one menu at a time if you are at the
menu selection level. You can always get out with q, reinvoke
the Main Menu by typing sysadm, then continue.
The following subsections show the Main Menu selections:
diskmgmt
Enter the main menu of the diskman(1) program. See Chapter 6 in
Installing and Managing the DG/UX System.
