Description : application framework for configuring, managing and
monitoring hard- and software
>From SGI's Website:
Rhino is an infrastructure for building applications that configure, manage,
and monitor hardware and software. Rhino provides a common, consistent,
task-based, internationalized graphical user interface (GUI), with built-in
command-line interfaces (CLIs) that system administrators can use to write
scripts. Rhino applications consist of two parts:
* Client-side GUI in Java. The GUI runs on any platform that has a
Java virtual machine, and it doesn't run as root or do setuid root.
It can enable the user to perform a single task; it can provide an
organized collection of tasks (with a built-in search mechanism);
and it can include GUIs for monitoring the system.
* Server-side daemon and command-line interfaces. These can be written
in C++ so Java doesn't have to run on the server being administered.
I need it especially for SGI's Linux Failsafe.
