| "Performing Operations at the Source Server" |

In this chapter, most examples illustrate how to perform tasks by using the ADSM command line interface. For information about the ADSM commands, see ADSM Administrator's Reference, or issue the HELP command from the command line of an ADSM administrative client.
All of the ADSM commands can be performed from the administrative client web interface. A Version 3 administrative client GUI is also available for the Windows NT and Windows 95 operating systems. For more information about using the administrative interfaces, see ADSM Quick Start. You can find detailed help for using the graphical user interfaces in the online help facilities.
