Sun Update Connection - Enterprise 1.0 Administration Guide

ProcedureTo Create a Master Host

  1. Define a VM user with read or write access to some minidisks.

  2. At the end of the profile exec a file, type the line: ipl <dev #>

  3. Upload Linux (with the DDR utility) onto <dev #>.

  4. Start the new VM user from any 3270 emulation.

  5. Change the TCP/IP of this new Linux image with the ifconfig command.

  6. Fix the routing table and then connect with telnet to the new VM user.

  7. Change the network configuration with YAST (5-6) to be permanent.

  8. Restart Linux.

  9. Copy the agent.tgz file to the new VM user Linux operating system.

  10. Untar the file and type ./Install to start the agent ezInstaller.

  11. After the agent is installed, view the agent configuration file.

    vi /opt/local/uce/agent/bin/uce.rc

  12. Find the mf_shared_path parameter and check the value for this parameter. The value should be /usr or /opt, according to the directory that you want this sharing host to access from its master.

    If the value is incorrect, copy the entire line of this parameter to the .uce.rc file and edit the value to be the correct directory. When the Sun Update Connection – Enterprise agent is installed on this VM user, you have a master host.
