Hp Openview: A Manager's Guide (McGraw-Hill Series on Computer Communications)

This handbook is the complete guide to Hewlett-Packard's OpenView, the leading open management platform used to run TCP/IP network and heterogeneous client/server systems. Authors Jill Huntington-Lee and Kornel Terplan cover all aspects of the HP OpenView product, describing what it is and how it works from both the user's, as well as the developer's perspective.Huntington-Lee and Terplan tell network managers and system administrators everything they need to know to implement HP OpenView and integrate it effectively into UNIX, TCP/IP, and SNMP-based environments. In addition to providing a thorough discussion of OpenView "derivatives" -- such as IBM's NetView/6000 -- the authors offer a tantalizing glimpse into future versions of OpenView, including "Tornado" and "Synergy".
