What You Can't Do With Host Manager

Host Manager cannot automatically recognize all previously added system types. 

Use the Update System Type option from the File menu the first time you use Host Manager. This option will probe systems on the network and attempt to identify their system types. 

Host Manager can't add SunOS 4.1 or compatible services to an OS server.  

Mount a SunOS 4.1 or compatible CD image and add OS services by using the install4x command.

Host Manager can't provide remote installation services for systems running the SunOS 4.1 release or compatible versions. 

Install systems running the SunOS 4.1 or compatible versions from the local CD-ROM drive. 

Host Manager does not enable you to install patches on existing clients and servers. (However, if you have used the admclientpatch command to set up a patch spool directory, Host Manager will reference this spool directory and add appropriate patches for all new hosts.)

Use the admclientpatch command to set up a patch spool directory and to update existing servers and clients with the latest patches.
