As a part of System i® Navigator, Management Central provides the
technology that you need to do systems management tasks across one or more
systems simultaneously.

With Management Central, you can perform many systems management functions
as part of your base operating system. Management Central allows you to
manage one or more systems through a single central system. Select a system
to use as your central system, and then add the endpoint systems to your
Management Central network. You can create groups of similar or related
endpoint systems to manage and monitor your systems easier. Your central
system can handle the communications for you. You can use such options as
scheduling and unattended operations. Management Central is flexible and
easily manipulated to suit your needs.
