Add File Declaration (-afd) Command

The add-file-declaration command adds a file declaration to the local knowledge base. A file declaration is the target path name for installation of a local Configuration file onto managed hosts.

Parameter

  • -pT category – Specify the parent category name in which to create the new category. This value must be a user-defined category under Configuration files.

  • -ds description – Specify an optional description of the new file.

  • -tfp pathname – Specify the target path name for installation on remote hosts.

  • -D distribution – Specify the distribution to which the file applies. If not specified, the command operates on all distributions.

Syntax

uce_cli -afd -pT "category" [ -ds "description" ] -tfp "pathname" [ -D distribution ] -u username -p password

Example

uce_cli -afd -pT "Configuration files/PrintcapVersions" -ds "install directory for printcap versions" -tfp "/etc/printcap" -u admin -p 123

Before you can create a file declaration, you have to have a category under Configuration files. Use the -alc command to create a category. To see a list of categories, use the -fc command with -T "Local/Configuration files" -sons.

The output of this command would give valid values for the -pT parameter of the -afd command. You can shorten the path of the category component to Configuration files/category. You do not need to type the full path from the root.
