To Set Up the Proxy Host

Steps

1. Load an OS on these hosts if you not done so already. For more information, go to the Sun N1 System Manager 1.3 Operating System Provisioning Guide

2. Set up /etc/hosts or DNS on each of the hosts so that they know the location of the master host.

3. Create an application (see To Create an N1GE Version) and application profile (see Creating and Managing N1GE Application Profiles.

4. Add the basemanagement or osmonitoring feature to the hosts that need to be managed. For more information, see the Sun N1 System Manager 1.3 Discovery and Administration Guide.

5. Set the application profile settings to:

   • proxyhost: The name of the N1SM managed host that you want to be the proxy.

   • nfsservername: The name of the master host on the external grid.

   • nfsmountpoint: The directory on the NFS server that contains the N1GE common directory.

   • instversion: The application that you are using.

6. Run the load servercommand with hosttype compute or hosttype submit for the host to set it up as a proxy.
