Verifying Installation 
 
Computer Management can be used to verify that all components are correctly installed. This is included in NT-based operating system packages (MS Windows NT, MS Windows 2000, MS Windows XP, etc.).
To start this component, select Settings - Control Panel - Administrative Tools - Computer Management.
This program is a sophisticated desktop tool for performing remote maintenance on computers. Possible actions include the following:
 •   monitoring system events, for example, logon times and application errors.
 •   creating and managing releases
 •   starting and ending system services, for example task schedulers and spoolers.
 •   defining properties for memory devices
 •   displaying device configurations and adding new device drivers
 •   administering server applications and services, for example, DNS (Domain Name System) or DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol).
Computer Management is displayed in a separate window, like Windows Explorer. The console structure (for the navigation and service program selection) contains the system programs, data memory, services, and applications available on the computer. The right pane - the event area - shows the tool's attributes and data as well as any subordinate tools available.
Administrator user rights are required to use the full range of Computer Management functions.  
Working with Computer Management requires an appropriate level of familiarity with the operating system.

Checking Entries in the Event Viewer 
The Event Viewer (event log) provides status information on the HiPath 5000 server and any application servers available.
All events associated with the server(s) and its (their) applications are saved. The events provide a quick and, above all, time-specific overview of all relevant actions (status, information, warning, error, etc.).
To open the Event Viewer, select Computer Management - System Tools - Event Viewer.
For more information, see Section 12.2.12 "Event Viewer for HiPath 5000 (Eventlog)". Table 12-8 shows the possible entries that may appear in the Event Viewer.
