.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
.I launchESPartner\^
|
|
is a utility that brings up SGI Embeded Support Partner User Interface.
|
|
A web based User Interface requires a html browser (Netscape or Lynx)
|
|
to operate. The User Interface provides access to all SGI Embedded Support
|
|
Partner facilities. Please refer to \f2esp\f1(5) for a detailed description
|
|
of Embedded Support Partner and available facilities.
|
|
.P
|
|
.I launchESPartner\^
|
|
can be envoked either by double-clicking the Embedded
|
|
Support Partner icon (located in Icon Catalog > Support Tools folder)
|
|
or by typing
|
|
.I launchESPartner\^
|
|
from a shell command line.
|
|
.P
|
|
Upon invocation,
|
|
.I launchESPartner\^
|
|
tries to bring up a web browser and
|
|
connect to SGI Embedded Support Partner HTTP Server to access SGI ESP
|
|
facilities. Supported web browsers include Netscape (version 4.0 and
|
|
above) and Lynx (ASCII based web browser).
|
|
.P
|
|
.I launchESPartner\^
|
|
, by default, first checks for existance of Netscape and
|
|
brings it up if available.
|
|
.I launchESPartner\^
|
|
will open a new Netscape window and loads the User Interface in that new window.
|
|
In the absence of Netscape,
|
|
.I launchESPartner\^
|
|
attempts to start Lynx.
|
|
.I launchESPartner\^
|
|
fails if none of these browers exist.
|
|
.P
|
|
You can override the default behaviour of
|
|
.I launchESPartner\^
|
|
by giving a
|
|
\f3-l\f1 option which automatically brings Lynx browser. The Lynx interface
|
|
supports only Embedded Support Partner Single System facilities.
|
|
.P
|
|
.I launchESPartner\^
|
|
, when invoked without any arguments, brings up the
|
|
SGI ESP User Interface for the localhost. One may use \f3-host\f1
|
|
\f2hostname\f1 option in order to start ESP User Interface for the
|
|
specified host.
|
|
.SH EXAMPLES
|
|

|
|
.TP

|

|
|
if Netscape is present then new Netscape window will be opened and
|
|
ESP Console initial page for MyHost will be loaded into it.
|
|
if only Lynx is present then Lynx will be started and
|
|
ESP Single System Manager page for MyHost will be loaded

|
into it.
