Use the installhost
tool to install Oracle Secure Backup on multiple Linux or UNIX hosts on the network. This utility is similar to installob
, except installhost
does not ask you whether to reinstall on the local host because you specify the target in the command line.
You must run this utility as root
on a Linux or UNIX system. You must have rsh
capability.
install/installhost installtype hostname[,hostname]... [ -a admin-server ] [ -f ]
Specifies the role to be assigned to the specified hosts. Valid values are client
, server
(for the media server role), and admin
.
Specifies the name of the host to which you want to copy Oracle Secure Backup.
Specifies the administrative server to be used by the host.
Forces an update of the /etc/obconfig
file on each host. This option is a useful way to force an update when the host is being reconfigured and Oracle Secure Backup directory defaults are changing.
Example 5-2 uses installhost
to install Oracle Secure Backup on three new clients: brhost2
, brhost3
, and brhost4
.
