Software Maintenance on Managed Nodes

Installing or Updating ITO Software Automatically

a. In the

ITO Application Bank

window, select

Actions:

Add ITO Application

.

b. Enter a name in the

Application Name

field, and enter the

following in the

Application Call

field:

/opt/OV/bin/OpC/utils/opcnode -chg_commtype \

comm_type=COMM_DCE_UDP node_list=”$OPC_NODES”

You can also choose

COMM_DCE_TCP

instead of

COMM_DCE_UDP

.

Note, however, that

COMM_DCE_UDP

is recommended.

c. Select

Start on Management Server

, and specify user

root

to execute the application because

opcnode

must be called

with root permissions. Click on

[OK]

.

opcnode

is added as an application to the

ITO Application

Bank

.

d. Select the nodes for which you want to change the

communication type in the

ITO Node Bank

or any other node

hierarchy.

e. In the

ITO Application Bank

, double-click the

opcnode

symbol to execute the application.

The communication type changes for all selected nodes. Verify this
by opening the

Node Advanced Options

window, or calling

opcnode -list -nodes

. See also the man page opcnode(1M) for

more information.

4. Use the

Install / Update ITO Software and Configuration

window to update the ITO agent software.

Depending on the communication type you have selected in the
previous step, ITO automatically selects the appropriate agent fileset
during the agent software installation.
