How to Add a Legacy Tool to a Toolbox

A legacy tool is any application that was not designed specifically as a Solaris management tool. Each tool you add to a toolbox can then be launched from the Solaris Management Console.

You can add the following types of legacy tool applications to a console toolbox:

• X applications

• Command-line interface (CLI) applications

• HTML applications

1. Become superuser or assume an equivalent role.

2. Start the Solaris Management Console Toolbox Editor, if necessary.

   # /usr/sadm/bin/smc edit &

3. Open the toolbox to which you want to add the legacy application.

   The toolbox selected is opened in the Toolbox Editor.

4. Select the node in the toolbox to which you want to add the legacy application.

   A legacy application can be added to the top node of a toolbox or to another folder.

5. Click Action -> Add Legacy Application.

   The General panel of the Legacy Application Wizard is displayed.

6. Follow the instructions in the wizard.

7. Save the toolbox in the Toolbox Editor.
