About SMH and the VEA

This chapter describes the Veritas Enterprise Administrator (VEA) graphical user interface (GUI), and its relationship with the System Management Homepage (SMH).

SMH and the VEA coexist as independent entities. The VEA recognizes and labels LVM volumes and disks, but does not manage them. Similarly, SMH recognizes and labels VxVM disks, but does not manage them. To manage VxVM disks graphically, you must use the VEA.

Note:

If you run the VEA client from the command line, refresh SMH to see VxVM changes reflected in the SMH screen. Only privileged users can run the VEA client. It is possible to launch the VEA client from SMH by selecting Home > System Configuration > Disks and File Systems > Veritas Enterprise Administrator.
