7. Run the opcseldist utility to re-configure the distribution manager
(opcdistm):
/opt/OV/bin/OpC/utils/opcseldist -reconfig
The opcdistm process re-reads the seldist configuration file and
checks the database for node groups specified in the configuration
file. Because of possibly unwanted side effects, opcdistm will report
to both the message browser and the System.txt file node groups
that display in the seldist file, but are not in the database.
NOTE The opcdistm process reads the seldist configuration file during
each startup. However, if you edit the seldist file and want to make
the changes effective instantly, run the opcseldist -reconfig
utility.
For more information on the opcseldist utility, usage and command
line options, see “The opcseldist Utility” on page 214 or refer to the
opcseldist(1m) man page.
8. Distribute the actions|cmds|monitor binaries using the
Install/Update OVO Software and Configuration window in the
OVO GUI.
NOTE If you have previously distributed all SPI actions|cmds|monitor to
all nodes, and you now want to remove unnecessary binaries from
these nodes, you can perform the following:
❏ On DCE-based managed nodes, run a distribution with Force
Update enabled.
❏ On HTTPS-based managed nodes, run a distribution using the
opcragt command with -purge option. However, note that if you
are distributing the instrumentation from several OVO servers,
the -purge option removes the whole instrumentation from the
nodes (even if the instrumentation has been distributed from
another OVO server).
