How to Audit Managed Hosts (Command Line)

The baseline manifest does not need to be built on the managed host. You can build a baseline manifest on a master system before creating the Solaris Flash archive.

  1. Determine which managed hosts you want to audit.

    For example, audit the /web-server/host1 and /web-server/host2 managed hosts.

  2. Audit managed hosts.


    $ changemgr audit [ -u username ] [ -p file ] [ -d domain ] \
    -o relfilepath.txt [ -r relfilepath.brul ] relfilepath.bmft topopath ...
    -o relfilepath.txt

    Specify where to write the report on manifest differences.

    -r relfilepath.brul

    Specify the audit rules file to use to create the manifest.

    relfilepath.bmft

    Specifies the path to the manifest file that is relative to the top of the Change Manager repository.

    topopath

    Specifies the path to a managed host or host group that is relative to the top of the selected administrative domain.

    For descriptions of the other options, see How to Add Managed Hosts (Command Line).

Example-Auditing Managed Hosts

Suzi audits the /web-server/host1 managed host. She stores the report in the /web-server/usr-only.txt file. She audits the managed host by comparing its manifest against the baseline manifest called /web-server/baseline.bmft.


$ changemgr audit suzi \
-o /web-server/usr-only.txt -r usr-only.brul \
/web-server/baseline.bmft /web-server/host1
