Customizing the Solution for Your Environment

Before you deploy Solaris zones from the Master Server, you must modify the Master Server config.properties file.

How to Customize the config.properties File

Steps

1. On the Master Server, using a text editor, access the config.properties file.

   By default, the configuration file for the Master Server resides in the following directory: /opt/SUNWn1sps/N1_Grid_Service_Provisioning_System_5.0/server/config

2. Add the following lines to the config.properties file:

   config.allowSessionIDOnHosts=masterserver 
             pe.defaultPlanTimeout=6000  

   The config.allowSessionIDOnHosts variable enables the plug-in to communicate with the Master Server through the N1 Grid Service Provisioning System Remote Agent and Command Line Interface (CLI).

   By default, the timeout value for plans is set to 1800 seconds or 30 minutes. In some instances, such as when executing a plan on older hardware, the amount of time that is needed for a plan to complete exceeds 30 minutes. To increase the plan timeout value, add the pe.defaultPlanTimeout line to the config.properties file. In the example that is shown, the value is set to 100 minutes.

3. After you modify the config.properties file, you must restart the Master Server.
