Service Manager GUI

The Service Manager GUI displays in a single view the availability of all the services contained in a service object. Service Manager is linked to the Sun Management Center 3.5 Java console only. Service Manager dynamically updates the data in the table to reflect the real time status of the services. You can choose to view details of a particular service, either from a local host or a remote host. You can also filter your display. For more information about filtering, see Filtering Services. See the following figure for an example of Service Manager.
