Install Guide

Post Installation Configuration For Remote Enablement

This section details the steps to configure the dependent RPMs if you have installed the Remote Enablement feature.

The post-installation configuration script is available at /opt/dell/srvadmin/etc/ on the server file system.

After installing all the dependent RPMs and the Remote Enablement feature, execute the autoconf_cim_component.sh script.

NOTE: The Distributed Web Server (DWS) connection does not work properly, if you have installed the sblim-sfcb RPM

from SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 SP3 operating system DVD. To resolve the connection issue, you must install the

sblim-sfcb RPM either from SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 SP2 operating system DVD or from the

Systems

Management Tools and Documentation

DVD.

Before executing the autoconf_cim_component.sh script, make sure that Systems Management is installed.

Execute the following command to configure sfbc and openwsman as per the default configurations: ./

autoconf_cim_component.sh

NOTE: To configure openwsman on the managed node to run on a different port, use the -p <

port

> option with

autoconf_cim_component.sh. This is optional and by default the openwsman is configured to run on port 443.

Creating Server Certificate For WSMAN

You can either create a new certificate for WSMAN or reuse an existing certificate.

Creating A New Certificate

You can create a new server certificate for WSMAN by executing the owsmangencert.sh script located at /etc/openwsman. This

script is provided by the openwsman RPM. Follow the steps in the wizard to create the server certificate.

Reusing An Existing Certificate

If you have a self-signed or CA-signed certificate, you can use the same certificate for the openwsman server by updating the

ssl_cert_file and ssl_key_file values, grouped under [server] tag, in /etc/openwsman/openwsman.conf with the

existing certificate values.

Configuring CRL For The openwsman Client

You need to configure the Certificate Revocation List (CRL) used by Server Administrator Web Server. To do this:

1. Mention a valid CRL file in /etc/openwsman/openwsman_client.conf.

2. If left blank, the CRL check is ignored.

NOTE:

CRL support is only present on SUSE Linux Enterprise Server version 11 and Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server

version 5 update 5. For other operating systems, contact the operating system vendor to provide the required CURL

library with CRL support.

Running sfcb And openwsman

Run sfcb and openwsman:

• /etc/init.d/sfcb start

• /etc/init.d/openwsmand start

NOTE: On Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6, replace sfcb with sblim-sfcb.

On Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6, for the sblim-sfcb and openwsman to start automatically after a reboot you need to change the run-

levels using the chkconfig utility. For example, if you want to run sblim-sfcb in run-levels 3 and 5, use the following command:

#chkconfig sblim-sfcb on --level 35

NOTE: For more information on chkconfig and its usage, see the operating system documentation.

The managed system is configured and is ready to be used by the Server Administrator Web Server.
