The Personal System Administration Guide describes the responsibilities of the system administrator for your Silicon Graphics workstation, and provides details on the various tools and utilities available for system administration.
Most system administration tasks can be accomplished by using the System Manager, available in the desktop toolchest by choosing System > System Manager. For a complete discussion of the System Manager, see “Overview of the System Manager” in Chapter 1. The organization of this guide matches the organization of the System Manager tool.
