System Administration Commands - Part 3

smosservice

- manage OS services

Synopsis

/usr/sadm/bin/smosservice subcommand [ auth_args] - - 
     [subcommand_args]

Description

The smosservice command manages OS services.

smosservice subcommands are:

add

Adds the specified OS services.

delete

Deletes the specified OS services.

list

Either lists all the installed OS services for the server if you do not specify a hostname, or lists the OS services for the specified diskless client if you do specify a hostname.

patch

Manages patches on all existing diskless clients. For example, you can use this subcommand to initially establish a patch spool directory on an OS server. Then, you can apply the patch to the spool area, verifying the patch as needed. Once the patch exists in the spool area, you can apply the patch to the clone area. In addition, you can migrate the patched clone area to clients.

Options

The smosservice authentication arguments, auth_args, are derived from the smc(1M) arg set and are the same regardless of which subcommand you use. The smosservice command requires the Solaris Management Console to be initialized for the command to succeed (see smc(1M)). After rebooting the Solaris Management Console server, the first Solaris Management Console connection might time out, so you might need to retry the command.

The subcommand-specific options, subcommand_args, must come after the auth_args and must be separated from them by the - - option.

auth_args

The valid auth_args are -D, -H, -l, -p, -r, and -u; they are all optional. If no auth_args are specified, certain defaults will be assumed and the user may be prompted for additional information, such as a password for authentication purposes. These letter options can also be specified by their equivalent option words preceded by a double dash. For example, you can use either -D or - -domain.

-D | - -domain 13;domain

Specifies the default domain that you want to manage. The syntax of domain is type:/host_name/domain_name, where type is nis, nis+, dns, ldap, or file; host_name is the name of the machine that serves the domain; and domain_name is the name of the domain you want to manage. (Note: Do not use nis+ for nisplus.)

If you do not specify this option, the Solaris Management Console assumes the file default domain on whatever server you choose to manage, meaning that changes are local to the server. Toolboxes can change the domain on a tool-by-tool basis; this option specifies the domain for all other tools.

-H | - -hostname 13;host_name:port

Specifies the host_name and port to which you want to connect. If you do not specify a port, the system connects to the default port, 898. If you do not specify host_name:port, the Solaris Management Console connects to the local host on port 898. You may still have to choose a toolbox to load into the console. To override this behavior, use the smc(1M) -B option, or set your console preferences to load a “home toolbox” by default.

-l | - -rolepassword 13;role_password

Specifies the password for the role_name. If you specify a role_name but do not specify a role_password, the system prompts you to supply a role_password. Passwords specified on the command line can be seen by any user on the system, hence this option is considered insecure.

-p | - -password 13;password

Specifies the password for the user_name. If you do not specify a password, the system prompts you for one. Passwords specified on the command line can be seen by any user on the system, hence this option is considered insecure.

-r | - -rolename 13;role_name

Specifies a role name for authentication. If you do not specify this option, no role is assumed.

-u | - -username 13;user_name

Specifies the user name for authentication. If you do not specify this option, the user identity running the console process is assumed.

- -

This option is required and must always follow the preceding options. If you do not enter the preceding options, you must still enter the - - option.

subcommand_args

Note: Descriptions and other arg options that contain white spaces must be enclosed in double quotes.

Examples

Example 1 Creating a new OS service

The following command adds an OS service for Solaris 10 for the sun4u machine class where the OS server is not using a name service:

example% /usr/sadm/bin/smosservice add -- \
            -x mediapath=/net/imageserver/5.8/sparc \
            -x platform=sparc.sun4u.Solaris_10 \
            -x cluster=SUNWCXall -x locale=en_US

The following command adds an OS service for Solaris 10 for the sun4u machine class where the OS server is using NIS, the NIS server is nisserver, the OS server is osserver, and the port to which you connect on osserver is 898:

example% /usr/sadm/bin/smosservice add -D nis:/nisserver/my.domain.com -- \
            -H osserver:898 -- \
            -x mediapath=/net/imageserver/5.8/sparc \
            -x platform=sparc.sun4u.Solaris_10 \
            -x cluster=SUNWCXall -x locale=en_US \
            -o osserver

In the preceding example, the OS service is placed in /export on osserver, while the hosts.byaddr, ethers, and bootparams maps are updated on the NIS server.

Example 2 Deleting an OS service

The following command deletes the OS service for Solaris 10 for the sun4u machine class where the OS server is using NIS, the NIS server is nisserver, and the OS server is osserver:

example% /usr/sadm/bin/smosservice delete\
            -D nis:/nisserver/my.domain.com -- \
            -x rmplatform=sparc.all.Solaris_10 \
            -o osserver

Example 3 Listing installed OS services

The following command lists the OS services installed on the machine, osserver:

example% /usr/sadm/bin/smosservice list \
            -D file:/osserver/osserver -- -o osserver

Environment Variables

See environ(5) for a description of the JAVA_HOME environment variable, which affects the execution of the smosservice command. If this environment variable is not specified, the /usr/java1.2 location is used. See smc(1M).

Exit Status

The following exit values are returned:

0

Successful completion.

1

Invalid command syntax. A usage message displays.

2

An error occurred while executing the command. An error message displays.
