Installing ITO Agents on the Managed Nodes

General Installation Tips for Managed Nodes

• Updates system configuration files

The Installation procedure updates the

OPCINFO

file and

writes the ITO start command (

OPCAGT.NCF

) to the

AUTOEXEC.NCF

. On NetWare SFT III systems,

OPCAGT.NCF

is

added to

SYS:SYSTEM/MSAUTO.NCF

.

The

SYS:/ETC/HOSTS

file is updated with the IP address of

the ITO management server if you agreed to add the ITO
management server to the

SYS:/ETC/HOSTS

file.

The internet name and IP address of the target NetWare
server that is currently processed are also required and must
be entered now. Both are added to the

SYS:/ETC/HOSTS

file. If

you are installing a NetWare SFT III managed node, enter the
name and IP address of the MS Engine.

• Creates ITO Operator and Group

The NetWare group OPCGRP is created, and the NetWare user
OPC_OP is added to the OPCGRP group; OPC_OP has the
same security level as the user ADMIN. All these actions are
performed in bindery or NDS mode.

CAUTION

Do not forget to manually change the password for the user OPC_OP.

j. When all selected servers have been processed a special

.NLM

is

invoked at the depot server to perform a shutdown at the time you
previously scheduled. The shutdown is only performed if no files
are opened on the NetWare server. There is no forced shutdown.

6. Inform the management server that the agent software has been

successfully installed on the new ITO managed nodes. Enter:

/opt/OV/bin/OpC/opcsw -installed <

node_name>

7. Assign your templates to the NetWare managed nodes and distribute

the templates, actions, monitors, and commands. See the HP ITO
Administrator’s Guide to Online Information for more information
about assigning and distributing templates.
