Reboot

I did it in Centos 5.2 and RHEL 5.

have you ever found that when you do a quick search in synaptics, you know the packages is there but they doesn’t show up in the search result? This probably a bug, but there’s workaround for this.

# update-apt-xapian-index -f

Have you ever confused about how to install a minimal-but-enough installation of solaris OS? Well I had.

It was some time ago I wanted to install Sun Solaris without graphical environment, but I still want some services like ssh and ftp server, and the powerful shell bash. You can always customize the software installation at the installation process, but I found it a bit frustating, because I have to examine the package one-by-one. On the other hand, installing a software by hand from the DVD might takes time to look for the right software since the filename is shortened.

To assign and distribute templates from the command line, use these tools:
Assign a template to a node

# /opt/OV/bin/opcnode -assign_templ templ_name=<template name> templ_type=<template type> node_name=<node name> net_type=NETWORK_IP

template type can be one of the following:

TEMPLATE_GROUP
CONSOLE_TEMPLATE
OPCMSG_TEMPLATE
LOGFILE_TEMPLATE
MONITOR_TEMPLATE
SNMP_TEMPLATE
EC_TEMPLATE
SCHEDULE_TEMPLATE

Assign a template to a node group

#/opt/OV/bin/opcnode -assign_templ templ_name=<template name> templ_type=<template type> group_name=<group name>

Distribute template

#/opc/OV/bin/opcragt -distrib -templates -monitors -commands -actions -force <hostname>

you don’t have to specify all of the template types at once.

Viewing deployed templates on the node

#/opt/OV/bin/ovpolicy -list -host <node name>

It doesn’t have to do this way, but I like doing this way, because it also cleans the old database and policies to avoid any problem.

1. Delete installed policies
   # /opt/OV/bin/ovpolicy -remove -poltype/polname
2. Shutdown all agent services including ovcd and ovbbccb
   # /opt/OV/bin/ovc -kill
3. Delete previous data
   # rm /var/opt/OV/datafiles/coda*
4. Remove messages queue
   # rm -r /var/opt/OV/tmp/OpC/*
5. delete the old certificate that has been used for communicating with the old management server
   #/opt/OV/bin/ovcert -remove <cert_id>
6. Configure agent to be a managed node of the new management serve
   r#/opt/OV/bin/OpC/install/ovcactivate -srv <srv>

At the new management server :

Add the new node and grant certificate request (you probably need to map the node to the certificate request)
