Installing host management through Solaris JumpStart

You can install host management and add a managed host to the domain through Solaris JumpStart installation without any user interaction. You can use the gendeploy.pl script to create a script that adds the host to the Management Server domain. The script that is generated by gendeploy.pl can be included in the finalized stages of the Solaris JumpStart installation process.

The following are the highlights of installing Veritas Operations Manager host management as a part of the Solaris JumpStart installation:

To create the script to be used for adding the hosts in Solaris JumpStart installation

  1. Log on as root on Management Server.
  2. Run gendeploy.pl to create the script file:

    /opt/VRTSsfmh/bin/gendeploy.pl --out scriptfilename

    where, scriptfilename is the name of the script file that has to be copied to the managed host, and then run to add the host to the Management Server domain.

See the Veritas Operations Manager Management Server Administrator's Guide for more information on adding hosts to a Management Server domain.
