Standard Install: Remote Host Information
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
Standard Install will allow management agents (DSA) to be installed to
remote machines. Management agents allow a remote machine to be
administered by the EnlightenDSM GUI. It is recommended that management
agents be installed onto the DNS and NIS servers. If agents are not
installed on the name servers, functionality of EnlightenDSM will be
severely limited in the functional areas of User Administration and
Network Configuration. If you do not wish to install agents on the name
servers, you may use the Naming Service Overrides window in the
EnlightenDSM GUI to define Local Overrides. Local Overrides allow you to
view and modify information from local /etc files instead of information
from name servers.
The management agents require approximately 40M free disk space.
Continue Button:
Press 'Continue' after you have finished setting up the Remote Install
List. If you do not wish to install to any remote hosts, you may leave
the Remote Install List empty. You can install to remote hosts at a
time by running the Custom Install.
The final Install to Local and Remote Hosts window will appear.
No components are installed at this time.
Cancel Button:
Press 'Cancel' to exit the EnlightenDSM Installer.
No components will be installed.
Remote Host:
Enter the name of a remote host. More than one host may be specified
by separating each host name with a space.
Root Password:
Enter the remote machine's root password. This password will be used
for all remote hosts specified in the field above. Only one password
may be entered.
Install Directory:
Enter the directory into which the management agents should be installed.
This directory will be used for all remote hosts specified in the Remote
Host text field above. Only one directory may be specified.
Add to Remote Install List:
Press this button after you have filled in the Remote Host, Root
Password, and Install Directory fields. For each host specified in
the Remote Host field, the EnlightenDSM installer will verify that
the root password is correct, the host has enough free disk space and
that the host's OS is supported.
If any errors are encountered, you will have a chance to re-specify
the install parameters for the failed host.
If no errors are encountered, the host name(s) will be added to the
Remote Install List.
Delete Button:
This button will delete all selected hosts from the Remote Install
List.
