Install HFA on X-Series

[chuachongchee]

Hi All,

Was thinking of there is an easier way to install HFAs onto the individual vaps?

Currently we copy the HFA to each vap individually and extract then install manually on each vap, then reboot the vap-group.

Was thinking maybe can extract the contents on the cpm and copythe entire directory into /tftpboot/<vap-name_num>/root, but this still leaves us with manually running the patch on each vap?

Is there a easier way around?

No other ways. You have to copy the HFA to each vap and install it individually.

HFA should be installed per APM, but you can copy HFA file to /tftpboot/vapgroupname_common/tmp and after that you will have it accessible form every APM from /vapgroupname_common/tmp

Executing Unix Commands on a Designated VAP
To execute Unix commands on a designated VAP in a VAP group, use the following command:
/usr/os/bin/cbs_rsh <VapGroupName> <VapIndex>
This command takes you to an rsh session on the specified VAP. Once executed, you can execute any UNIX
command on that VAP.
The following is an example for a VAP with an index of 2 in a VAP group named vgSync. In this example,
the command would be entered as follows:
[root@xxxx bin]# /usr/os/bin/cbs_rsh vgSync 2
Last login: Thu May 16 17:33:09 from primarycpm
[root@vgSync_2 /root]#
[root@vgSync_2 /root]#ps
[root@vgSync_2 /root]#
[root@vgSync_2 /root]# exit
rlogin: connection closed.
[root@xxxx bin]#
Executing Unix Commands on All VAPs
To execute Unix commands on a all VAPs within a VAP group, use the following command:
/usr/os/bin/cbs_rsh <vapGroupName>
This command causes the following prompt to display:
vapGroupName>>
Commands entered at this prompt are either specific to cbs_rsh, or executed directly on each VAP within the
VAP group. Once executed, the command results are displayed. When the execution of all commands has
completed you are returned to the VAP group name prompt
