Add agentless hosts panel options
Prev	Adding the managed hosts to Management Server using an agentless configuration	Next

Use this wizard panel to specify options to add a managed host to Management Server using agentless configuration.

The Advanced option lets you use privilege control software with the agentless discovery of a host. You must specify the type and location of the software on the remote host. The Advanced option is optional and is required when adding agentless host discovery for non-root users.

Table: Add agentless hosts wizard panel options for agentless configuration

Field	Description
Discovery Mode	Lets you filter the Control Host field by discovery mode. SSH should be used for adding UNIX hosts and WMI should be used for adding Windows hosts.
Control Host	Control Host through which the agentless host is being discovered. Windows agentless hosts can only be discovered by Windows Control Hosts.
Add entry	Select to manually specify more than one host to add.
Host Name	Enter host name or IP address that you can use to reach the managed host from Management Server.
User Name	Enter user name with administrator rights.
Password	Enter password to log on to the managed host.
Advanced	Lets you specify type and location of privilege control software to use on the agentless hosts.

Under Advanced you can add multiple hosts by importing the information from a comma-separated (.csv) file from a specified location. The CSV file must include the ".csv" extension. You can use the manual host specification and the CSV file simultaneously to add hosts.

The following is an example of a CSV file that includes user names and passwords for each host:

Host,User,Password
host1.abc.com,username1,password1
host2.abc.com,username2,password2

The first line in the CSV file must appear as above. You can replace the subsequent lines with your hosts, user names, and passwords.

For agentless configuration, the CSV file cannot contain both UNIX and Windows hosts.

Note:

The discovery mode (SSH or WMI) must be consistent with the types of hosts you specify in the CSV file. You must specify SSH for UNIX hosts and WMI for Windows hosts.
