Use swcfmg_software (Software Information Management Command) to define software information and perform the operations below (refer to "Chapter 3 Command Reference" for information on the commands):
Registration of software information
Update of software information
Deletion of software information
Output of software information
Registration of software information
Register the basic software information in the CMDB. Note that a "software ID" number will be assigned automatically during registration.
[Registration information]
Software ID <Software ID>
Software name <Software name>
Version <Version>
OS type <OS type>
Vendor <Vendor>
Use "<Software name> + <Version> + <OS type>" to register unique information. Software with identical information is deemed to be the same, and cannot be registered in the CMDB.
To register software information, specify the CSV files in the format below using the Software Information Management Command (refer to "Chapter 4 File Reference" for information on file format):
[#][<Software ID>],<Software name>,<Version>,<OS type>,<Vendor> ...
Note
Notes for new registrations
<Software ID> cannot be entered for a new registration. A registration error will occur if this happens.
Update of software information
Update the registered software information.
To update software information, specify CSV files in the format above using the Software Information Management Command.
The "software ID" automatically assigned during registration is used as the key when updating. Use the software information output feature to check the ID of the registered software information.
When updating information, we recommend revising files generated using the software information output feature, and deleting software information that does not require update. Use these files as the input for the command to update information.
Note that an update error will occur if no software ID, or an incorrect one, is entered.
Deletion of software information
Delete the registered software information.
Specify the software ID of the software information to be deleted.
Check the software ID using the software information output function.
Note that software information cannot be deleted for software that has registered installed software information. Ensure that installed software information has been deleted before deleting the software information that is not required.
Output of software information
Output the registered software information in the CSV format below.
The output destination is the standard output of the command or the specified file.
#Software ID,Software name,Version,OS type,Vendor <Software ID>,<Software name>,<Version>,<OS type>,<Vendor> ...
