Sun Update Connection - Enterprise 1.0 Administration Guide

Job Processes

After Sun Update Connection – Enterprise confirms that the entire Master Group has been selected for a job with sharing hosts, the job begins.

  1. The job is sent to the master host on the host list.

  2. The agent of the Master runs the Dependency Resolver and job procedures.

  3. On success:

    • If the Masters in the host list do not have sharing hosts, the job ends.

    • If it is a Simulate mode job, Sun Update Connection – Enterprise checks the sharing hosts and then the job ends.

    • If it is a Deploy job, Sun Update Connection – Enterprise checks that the sharing hosts are synchronized with their master host. If this check is successful, the sharing hosts take the job solution that the master host used and run the same tasks. sharing hosts do not try to find a new solution; they must follow the same steps that their Master took.

If a Problem Occurs

Unsynchronized Sharing Host  

 

Situation 

An error is given for a sharing host in the Status window, stating that the host is not synchronized with its Master. 

Explanation 

A sharing host was unable to successfully complete a job and is no longer synchronized with its master host. 

Solution 

1. Select the sharing host in the Hosts window. The Synchronize button is enabled.

2. Click Synchronize.

A job beings that works on only this sharing host. It makes any changes necessary to make the software configuration of the sharing host compatible with the master host. The Synchronize Job feature is available only to an user with full permissions, and can be run on only one sharing host at a time.
