This guide describes how to administer the service processor that accompanies the InServ
Storage Server. The Service Processor (SP) offers two user interfaces that enable you to perform
various administrative and diagnostic tasks in support of both the InServ and the SP. This guide
explains the functions performed by the SP, shows you how to access both of its user interfaces,
and demonstrates how to perform administrative and diagnostic tasks using those interfaces.
