15.19.1 Software Information

This section explains the software information manipulation commands.
You can use already registered software information.Refer to "Appendix C Registered Software IDs" for details.

15.19.1.1 Overview of Software Information

Software information files are XML documents that list configuration information for the software (operating system) included in a cloning image.

Create and register one software information file for each item of software.

Software information for operating systems is included with the products, so infrastructure administrators will not usually need to create software information.

Refer to "Appendix C Registered Software IDs" for information on the software information included with this product.

If information such as license information is required, the infrastructure administrator must modify the file contents.

Refer to "15.19.1.2 File Information Details" for information on a description of items (tags).

New software information will need to be created when registering software such as OSS.

Infrastructure administrators must take this model into account when performing creation.

The software information model is stored in the following folder:

[Windows Manager]

Installation_folder\RCXCFMG\templates\softwares\

[Linux Manager]

/opt/FJSVcfmg/templates/softwares/
