How to Start the Solaris Management Console in a Name Service Environment

After you have created a name service toolbox and added tools to it, you can start the Solaris Management Console and open that toolbox to manage a name service environment.

Before You Begin

Verify that the following prerequisites are met:

• Ensure that the system you are logged in to is configured to work in a name service environment.

• Verify that the /etc/nsswitch.conf file is configured to match your name service environment.

1. Start the Solaris Management Console.
