3.5 Replicating Software Using Image Files
If you are going to install the product on several computers, you can
create a disk image file that includes the product and use this image to
replicate the software on the computers. Make sure that each computer
on which the software is installed will create a new unique identification
code.
Follow these steps to make sure that each computer uses a personalized
Unique ID when a disk imaging software is used:
1. Install the system and all the software that should be in the image file,
including the product.
2. Configure the product to use the correct F-Secure Policy Manager
Server. However, do not import the host to F-Secure Policy Manager
Console if the host has sent an autoregistration request to the
F-Secure Policy Manager Server. Only hosts on which the image file
will be installed should be imported.
3. Run the command following command:
/etc/init.d/fsma clearuid
The utility program resets the Unique ID in the product installation.
4. Shut down the computer and do not restart the computer before the
image file has been created.
5. Create the disk image file.
A new Unique ID is created automatically when the system is restarted.
This will happen individually on each machine where the image file is
installed. These machines will send autoregistration requests to F-Secure
Policy Manager and the request can be processed normally.
3.6 Preparing for Custom Installation
The product installation package is a self extracting package, which
contains the software as RPMs. If there is a need to create a custom
installation package, the RPMs can be extracted from the package as
follows:
