Managing Systems and Workgroups: A Guide for HP-UX System Administrators

Conﬁguring a System

Using Distributed Systems Administration Utilities

Chapter 3162

The wizard can currently only manage clients when the clients are in the

same DNS domain as the master server. For multi-domain

conﬁgurations, refer to “Manual Conﬁguration” on page 163 for

instructions on adding clients manually.

Note that if adding a Serviceguard cluster as a managed client, each

cluster member must be added individually.

Start by logging in as root on the master server and conﬁgure ssh access

to the remote system:

# csshsetup <hostname of managed client>

csshsetup ﬁrst tests ssh access to the remote system. If it is not

conﬁgured, ssh prompts for the managed client’s password.

Run the Conﬁguration Synchronization Wizard and choose option 2 to

add a new client:
