Abstract

Product Version: HP OSM T0682AAA

Version ID: 2004November09

The HP NonStop" Open System Management (OSM) software is a collection of client/server
applications that provide troubleshooting, maintenance, and service tools for the HP NonStop
S-series server. The OSM software also allows you to view and manage resources within a
supported Expand network, such as an HP NonStop ServerNet Cluster.

Help Available Within the OSM Service Connection

When you select OSM Online Help from the OSM Help menu, you are prompted to Open or
Save the file. Select Open for direct access to the online version of the

OSM User's Guide

(which includes information on how to use the OSM Service Connection.) If you select Save,
the Save As dialog box allows you to save a copy to your workstation. In this way, you can
access the OSM User's Guide without having an active OSM Service Connection session.

From within an active OSM Service Connection session, context-sensitive help is available by
using help buttons and by selecting objects within the various panes of the OSM Management
window and pressing the F1 key.
