Access the system management console

When you access the system management console, ensure you have enough memory, and that the Applications Manager are not open.

About this task

It is recommended that you increase the memory available to the Java™ plug-in for every computer that runs the System Management Console. To increase the memory available, open the Java plug-in settings from the Windows control panel. Specify the following Java runtime parameters: -Xms128M -Xmx128m.

If both the Applications Manager and the System Management Console are opened at the same time, and if a dialogue window is opened in either application, the other stops responding to user input until that dialogue window is closed. This is due to a bug in the Java platform.
