The console user interface is implemented with the standard
NWSNUT services so that the standard NetWare console
look-and-feel is achieved.
Installation Tips for Olivetti UNIX Managed
Nodes
❏ The ITO Agent software is installed on the /opt file tree. If the root file
system is too small for the installation of ITO Agents, create a
symbolic link before installing ITO. For example: if
/bigdisk
is a
local file system with enough free space:
mkdir -p /bigdisk/OV
ln -s /bigdisk/OV /opt/OV
In a cluster environment, you must check that
/bigdisk
is also
accessible from all cluster clients, and that it is mounted from all
client nodes. For example, the local file system
/bigdisk
on the
cluster client must be mounted to the exported file system
/bigdisk
on the cluster server.
❏ Some of the logfiles checked by the logfile encapsulator are not, by
default, present on Olivetti managed nodes, for example
/var/adm/messages
. It is important that all logfiles that are
checked by the logfile encapsulator agent are present on the managed
node. To add the logfile
/var/adm/messages
to the managed node,
edit the
/etc/syslog.conf
file by adding the following lines:
kern,mark.debug
/var/adm/messages
To create the /var/adm/messages file on the managed node, enter:
touch /var/adm/messages
Then restart the syslog daemon, see the manpage syslog(1m).
❏ Make sure that the entry root is not contained in the
/etc/ftpusers
file; Otherwise the installation of ITO agents to the
managed nodes will fail.
