You can create a host information definition file and turn on the client power using the Task Link function. This file defines the clients to be turned on, and it can specify the information about multiple hosts.
You must create a host information definition file having the "hostinfo.ini" name and store it in the following directory.
[Windows]
Systemwalker Operation Manager installation directory\MpWalker.JM\mpnjsosv\manage |
[UNIX]
Solaris | /opt/FJSVsnjss/manage |
HP-UX version | /opt/FHPsnjss/manage |
AIX version | /opt/FAIXsnjss/manage |
Linux version | /opt/FJSVsnjss/manage |
You can directly edit this file using an editor such as "vi" or Notepad. The following gives the syntax rules.
Coding format
For IPv4 communications
[HostName] |
For IPv6 communications
[HostName] |
* For IPv6 format, there is no need to specify SubnetMask.
Parameters
[HostName]
Specifies a host name of the client to be turned on.
This host name must be the same as the "HostName" you specify in the client power-on command. A pair of brackets ([ ]) are required.
MACAddress=mac_address
Specifies a MAC address of the client to be turned on.
The "mac_address" must be hexadecimal value sets such as "00-00-0E-9D-2C-38." This parameter is always required.
IPAddress=ip_address
Specifies an IP address of the client to be turned on. Specify the IP address in IPv4 or IPv6 format for the "ip_address".
This parameter may be omitted.
The IP address is first searched as the "HostName". If it cannot be resolved, the IP address specified here is used.
SubnetMask=subnet_mask
Specifies a subnet mask of the client to be turned on.
For IPv4 environment communications only, the "subnet_mask" must be decimal value sets such as "255.255.255.0." This parameter is always required.
Omit for IPv6 communications environments.
Sample Definition
Examples for IPv4:
[foo] |
Examples for IPv6 format:
[foo] |
Usage notes
The host information definition file is also used for policy data distribution as part of Jobscheduler information.
If the information is distributed to a server where SystemWalker/OperationMGRV4.0L20 or earlier Windows or V5.0 or earlier [UNIX] has been installed, the host information distribution file remains in the working directory of the destination server.
