Starting Applications and Broadcast Commands
If HPOM operators do not log in with the default user account set up by
the HPOM administrator, they must use the corresponding passwords
for broadcasting commands or starting applications. If operators do not
use the correct passwords, the command or application will fail.
Starting I/O Applications
When starting applications configured as Window (Input/Output),
operators must do one of the following:
• Specify passwords with the application attributes.
• Provide .rhosts entries or /etc/hosts.equiv functionality.
• Specify passwords interactively.
