Add Local Category (-alc) Command

The add-local-category command creates a new category under Local, under Probes, Pre-actions, Post-actions, Macros, or Configuration Files.

Use this command if you want to upload scripts and files to the local knowledge base. You cannot upload a local file or script until you have created a category to hold it.

Parameter

  • -T component Specify the name of the component. If you type part of a name, without -sons, the output will be all components that have this string in their names. The value you specify is case-insensitive.

  • -ds description Specify an optional description of the new category.

  • -pT category Specify the parent category name in which to create the new category. Valid values are: Probes, Pre-actions, Post-actions, Macros, Configuration files, or one of these, with /existing-subcategory.

  • -D distribution Specify the distribution to use. If not specified, the command operates on all distributions.

Syntax

uce_cli -alc -T "category" [ -ds "description" ] -pT "parent-category" [ -D distribution ] -u username -p password

Example

uce_cli -alc -T "PrintcapVersions" -ds "various config files to set up different printers" -pT "Configuration files" -u admin -p 123

To get a list of the valid values for the -pT parameter, use the -fc command, with "Local" as the value of its -T parameter.

One or both of "ROOT/Local/Local RPMs" or "ROOT/Local/Local PKGs" is listed, but are not valid values for the -alc command; all the other items in this output are acceptable.
