Sun Management Center software is an open, extensible system monitoring and management application that uses Java software protocol and Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) to provide an integrated and comprehensive enterprise-wide management of Sun products and their subsystems, components, and peripheral devices.
The Sun Management Center User's Guide includes definitions, explanations, and diagrams that clarify the Sun Management Center architecture. Review that document whenever you have questions about how consoles, servers, agents, domains, and modules interact.

Hardware configuration information, process monitoring, and management operations for the Sun Fire high-end systems are provided by the Sun Fire high-end systems agent modules listed in TABLE 1-1:
