HMF Tutorial: The UNET Admin Guide to HMFSERVE

HMF schedules one-time and recurring events such as reminders, CP messages, and XAUTOLOG. What sorts of problems might we solve using HMF?

Here are three examples:

We need a monthly reminder to defragment our Windows desktop hard drive.
We need to send a CP MSG to ADMGROVR once each week to run a program.
We need to XAUTOLOG a userid and run a program daily.

HMF makes each of these tasks possible and trivial. We'll discuss these examples in detail on the following pages.

HMF has other facilities, but this guide will concentrate on solving these three common problems.
