ASUS System Management Software User’s Manual
ASWM for Linux
Q. How can I check whether ASWM has started? And how do I start
it manually if it has not started?
A. You can use the “ps” command to check. For example:
# ps ax | grep http
And if you see some process entry such as
XXXXX ? S X:XX /usr/sbin/httpd -f /var/www/aswm/conf/httpd.conf
where X could be any digit. Then at least the Apache HTTP Server
has started.
If ASWM has not started, just login as the root user and execute:
# /etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd_aswm start
then recheck by using the “ps” command again.
Q. I opened “http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:2623/” (x being the server’s IP
address) but the browser does not show anything. Why?
A. Usually this is possibly caused by a failure of the ASMA host.
ASWM will connect to the ASMA host and inquire some initiative
values by SNMP. Check the ASMA host and see if UCD SNMP
daemon has started and that ASMA has been properly installed
and started. Also make certain that ASMA's SNMP extension is
correctly hooked on the SNMP daemon. You can check SNMP
functions by using UCD SNMP utilities such as “snmpwalk” or
“snmpget”.
Q. When I use Netscape Communicator/Navigator to browse ASWM
pages and resize its window size, there are errors on the page or
blanks. Why does this happen?
A. Netscape Communicator/Navigator does not handle resize window
correctly, this is a well-known disadvantage for those frame-
enabled web pages. Unfortunately, ASWM's web pages
extensively uses frames. To solve this problem, just press [Alt]+[R]
in Linux to reload the page.
