Configuring a remote command-line client

About this task

To configure a remote command-line client , perform the following steps:
  1. Log on as Administrator on Windows operating systems, or as root on UNIX and Linux operating systems, on the machine where the remote command-line client is installed with a fault-tolerant agent.
  2. Open the localopts configuration file in the fault-tolerant agent instance.
  3. Complete the # Attributes for CLI connections configuration section to connect the remote command-line client to the command-line server in the master domain manager:
    HOST
    The IP address or host name of the workstation where the master domain manager is installed.
    PROTOCOL
    The protocol that is used by the command-line client to connect to the workstation where the master domain manager is installed. The possible values are http and https. The default protocol that is used by the command-line client to establish a connection with the master is https.
    PORT
    The HTTP or HTTPS port number that is used to connect to the workstation where the master domain manager is installed. This port number must match the values that are defined for the master domain manager instance.
    TIMEOUT
    The timeout in seconds to wait for a master domain manager response.
    CLISSLSERVERAUTH
    Specify whether or not the connection to the master domain manager is SSL or not. If you set this value to true, perform the steps described in Configuring SSL connection between remote command-line client and master domain manager.
    CLISSLSERVERCERTIFICATE
    Specify only if CLISSLSERVERAUTH is set to true. The absolute path of the .arm file of the server public certificate. For more information about this value, see Configuring SSL connection between remote command-line client and master domain manager.
    CLISSLTRUSTEDDIR
    Specify only if CLISSLSERVERAUTH is set to true. The path of all the .arm files that the remote CLI must trust. For more information about this value, see Configuring SSL connection between remote command-line client and master domain manager.
    DEFAULTWS
    The master domain manager workstation name.
    USEROPTS
    The file that contains the user name and password to use to connect to the master domain manager workstation. This user must be a valid user that is listed in the Security file on the master domain manager.
  4. Save the localopts.
  5. Restart the fault-tolerant agent processes to accept the localopts changes.
