Post-install configuration - HP-UX


The Post-Install Configuration tab lets you specify processes you would like to run after the operating system is installed on the server.

On this tab you can:

  • Choose to install a TrueSight Server Automation RSCD agent. An agent must be installed on every server that you want to manage using the TrueSight Server Automation Console or Network Shell.
  • Choose to run a Batch Job. A Batch Job can sequentially run a series of other jobs that install software and perform additional configuration on the server.
  • Specify the first script to run after the operating system is installed. This script runs before any post-install Batch Job that you specify.

Field definitions

Install RSCD agent

Check this option to install an agent on the server being provisioned. (An agent must be installed on every server you want to manage using the TrueSight Server Automation Console or Network Shell.)

Push ACLs

Check this option to push the ACLs defined for the server in the TrueSight Server Automation system to the RSCD agent you are installing on the server.
Selecting this option automatically translates the permissions you have defined for the server in the TrueSight Server Automation system into a users configuration file on the RSCD agent. In this way, you control users' access to the server not only through the TrueSight Server Automation Console but also through Network Shell and the BLCLI.

Run post-install batch job

Check this option to run a post-install Batch Job that can install software and configure the server. Then for Path to post-install job, enter the path to the job or Browse g_V95_BrowseIcon.gifto select it.
In order to check Run post-install batch job, you must also check Install RSCD agent, because running a post-install job requires that there is an agent installed on the server.
If you specify a Post-install Batch Job, make sure that the provisioning operator who runs the provisioning wizard logs is using a role that has Read and Execute authorizations on the Batch Job and has Read and Execute authorizations on all the Jobs contained in the Batch Job.

Force Post-install Batch Job

Select this option to ensure that the post-install Batch Job runs, even if RSCD agent enrollment fails. If you do not select this option, the post-provisioning Batch Job does not execute if RSCD agent enrollment fails.
For example, if you use DNS, the RSCD agent enrollment cannot succeed until a DNS entry for the target server is provided. If you want to provide the DNS entry using a script in the Batch Job, you need the Batch Job to run even when the RSCD agent enrollment fails.

Post-install Script

Specify the first script you want to run after the operating system is installed.
Enter the script in the box or click Select Property g_V95_ParameterizeIcon.GIFto use a property to reference the script.
This script runs before any post-install Batch Job that you specify.

Proceed to the Local-properties-HP-UX tab.
