DSM/SCM Hostname Change
DSM/SCM Hostname Change
•
The INITENV change option now allows you to:
°
On a target system, transfer management of the target system from one
existing host to another. A system load is not required.
°
On a host system, change the host that is managing a target. A remote target
can be managed by a different host. You can avoid re-initialization of the target
and retain the configurations managed by DSM/SCM on the host for the target.
•
Changes in Software Identification (SWID) now enable the Apply process to
accurately determine if a system load is required.
Migration
When you upgrade the client and server SPRs for DSM/SCM, you must also upgrade
the SWID product (T9298H02) at the same time to avoid a fingerprint or mismatched
file problem. (DSM/SCM uses the SWID utility to determine if a file has changed by a
method called fingerprinting.) If an existing file has a different fingerprint from a newer
file, the newer version replaces the existing file.
