Job Management Partner 1/Software Distribution Description and Planning Guide
When you use AMT Linkage at a client running on a computer that supports AMT, you can store the host ID in AMT's nonvolatile memory.
Storing the host ID in this manner allows you to restore it if, for example, you need to re-install the client when recovering from a disk failure. This enables the higher systems to recognize the newly installed client as being the same asset as it was prior to the failure.
The following subsections explain the settings for storing host IDs in AMT's nonvolatile memory.
You must first initialize an area in AMT's nonvolatile memory in which to store the host IDs. To initialize the area, you execute the dcmamtin command on the higher system targeting the computer that supports AMT. You can execute this command either before or after the client is installed.
For details about the dcmamtin command, see (2) dcmamtin.exe (initialize AMT's nonvolatile memory).
Once initialization of this area is complete, the host ID is saved to AMT's nonvolatile memory at one of the following times.
Once the host ID has been stored, it can be restored if the client is re-installed. If, for some reason, the host ID is not restored, see 6.4.2(5) AMT Linkage does not operate correctly in the manual Administrator's Guide Volume 2.
If the host ID cannot be restored from AMT's nonvolatile memory when the client is re-installed, the host ID is regenerated by the client. If this occurs, the host ID in AMT's nonvolatile memory is overwritten when a client service starts.
This subsection describes the dcmamtin command. You can use this command in an environment in which AMT Linkage of JP1/Software Distribution Manager or JP1/Software Distribution Client (relay system) is installed.
dcmamtin.exe {/f system-configuration-information-file | /H host-name | /I IP-address}
Code | Meaning | Action to take |
---|---|---|
0 | Initialization of AMT's nonvolatile memory succeeded at all execution targets. | None |
1 | The system configuration file could not be opened, or the syntax in the file is invalid. | Check the path to, and the syntax in, the system configuration information file. |
2 | A command argument is invalid. | Check the command arguments. |
12 | An error other than the above occurred. | A system error occurred. Check the execution environment of the command. |
30 | Initialization of AMT's nonvolatile memory failed for at least one client. | Check the log file to determine the cause and action to take.#
|
31 | Initialization of AMT nonvolatile memory failed for all clients. |
