HP XP7 Command View Advanced Edition Administrator Guide (Web Version) (TK981-96004, May 2014)

• The user account used when the host is registered has been created specifically for Host Data

Collector (recommended).

• When the OS of a normal host to be managed is AIX, the ODMDIR environment variable is set.

• Update permissions (rwx) are set for the /tmp directory.

• Settings have been specified in the PATH environment variable so that the sudo command can

be executed.

• Settings have been specified in the /etc/sudoers file so that the sudo command can be ex-

ecuted.

To ensure that the sudo command can be executed, add the following entry:

user-name-used-for-host-registration hosts-to-be-registered

=(execution-user-name-alias)NOPASSWD:/tmp/FsDataGatherLauncher.Unix.sh

For hosts-to-be-registered, specify the IP address, host name, or ALL.

For execution-user-name-alias, specify ALL, or root.

NOTE:

If a general user account is used to register a host into Device Manager, do not use the root account

to register the host a second time.

NOTE:

Do not use a name that contains a semicolon (;) for the following host items:

• If managing a Windows host:

- Network connection name

- Comment field for the shared disk

• If managing a UNIX host:

- Mount-destination directory name

- Disk group name (volume group name and disk set name)

- Logical volume name

- Network name

- Shared disk directory name

- Device name of the network drive (directory name of the shared disk that has been set up on

the reference destination host)
