NAME
swjob, sd - display and monitor job information and create and remove jobs; invoke graphical user interface
to display and monitor job information and create and remove jobs; respectively
SYNOPSIS
swjob [-i][-R][-u][-v][-a attribute][-C session_file ][-f jobid_file ][-S session_file ]
[-t target_file ][-x option=value ][-X option_file][jobid(s)][@ target_selections]
sd [XToolkit Options][-x option=value ][-X option_file]
Remarks
• The sd command invokes an interactive interface to the same functionality that swjob provides. See
Interactive Operation below for more details.
• This command supports operation on remote systems. See Remote Operation below for details.
• For an overview of all SD commands, see the sd(5) man page by typing man 5 sd on the command
line.
DESCRIPTION
The swjob command displays job information and removes jobs. It supports these features:
• Display the current install jobs, copy jobs, and other SD jobs initiated by the SD commands.
• Specify a specific job to list or remove.
• Display the command logfile for a specific job.
• Display the target logfile for a specific target.
Remote Operation
You can enable Software Distributor (SD) to manage software on remote systems. To let the root user from
a central SD controller (also called the central management server or manager node) perform operations on
a remote target (also called the host or agent):
1) Install a special HP ServiceControl Manager fileset on the remote systems. This enables remote opera-
tions by automatically setting up the root, host, and template Access Control Lists (ACLs) on the
remote machines and permitting root access from the controller system. To install the fileset, run the
following command on each remote system:
swinstall -s controller:/var/opt/mx/depot11 AgentConfig.SD-CONFIG
NOTES:
• controller is the name of the central management server.
• If the target is running HP-UX 10.20, use the same command but substitute depot10 for
depot11.
• Targets previously set up by SD/OV to be managed by this controller do not need this step.
• SD does not require any other ServiceControl Manager filesets.
2) (Optional) Enable the GUI interfaces for remote operations by creating the .sdkey file on the con-
troller. Use this command:
touch /var/adm/sw/.sdkey
(This step is not required when you use SD from within the HP ServiceControl Manager.)
NOTE: You can also set up remote access by using the swacl(1M) command directly on the remote
machines to grant root or non-root access to users from the controller system.
Interactive Operations
The sd command is an interactive interface for monitoring and scheduling software jobs. It provides the
same functionality as the swjob command. You can also use sd to invoke the swinstall, copy, and
swremove GUIs.
If you have enabled SD’s remote operations features, swinstall, swcopy, and swremove provide
enhanced GUIs to support operations on remote targets. See Remote Operation above for details
about enabling remote operations and the enhanced GUIs.
