6. Create a .matrixrc file for user root. (If the root password is the same on all
servers, the file needs to be created only once and can then be copied to each
subsequent server.) The mxdb interface provided with MxDB-Oracle-HiAv checks
the .matrixrc file for the user name and password to be used when running
scripts (the root user and password are required). You can use the HP Scalable
NAS Connect dialog to create bookmarks specifying the authentication
information for each server. The bookmarks are saved in the .matrixrc file
(the password is encrypted).
To create the .matrixrc file containing the bookmarks, complete these steps:
a. Issue the mxconsole command to start the Management Console.
b. On the Authentication Parameters dialog, click Cancel. When the Disconnect
screen appears, select Login to another HP Scalable NAS and click OK.
c. The HP Scalable NAS Connect dialog will be displayed. Click Bookmarks
to open the Bookmarks list and then select Synchronize Server Bookmarks
Automatically.
d. In the Connect to field, specify the hostname of the upgraded server.
e. Click the As User button to the right of the Connect to field to display the
Authentication Parameters dialog. Specify the root user and password, click
both Add to bookmarks and Remember this password, and then click OK.
