To run the TrueSight Network Automation auto script
- Through a command prompt on the Network Automation application server, change the directory to the \cisco-dsn\bin directory.
- Run the run-dsn <WEB-URL> <USERNAME> <PASSWORD> command.
Provide the parameters to discover and configure the Cisco Data Center Services Node, and all the service modules within Cisco Data Center Services Node for management.
The chassis is added to the system and becomes manageable. At this point, the auto script adds the device security profile named MYDSN, and the base chassis to the system. It then checks to make sure that the Cisco Data Center Services Node chassis is reachable from a network perspective.
The script determines what modules are installed in the chassis and prompts for the configuration information for each module.
After the script is completed and all the modules have been configured for management, they are added to the Network Automation application.
