Creating The Configuration Files By Using The Command Line Utility - Novell ZENWORKS LINUX MANAGEMENT 7.2 IR2 - ADMINISTRATION GUIDE 09-25-2008 Administration Manual

See Section 25.3.4, "Testing and Performing the Mirroring Operation by Using zlmmirror," on
page 303 and Section 25.3.5, "Testing and Performing the Mirroring Operation by Using the
xzlmmirror Utility," on page 303
25.3.1 Creating the Configuration Files by using the Command
Line Utility
Run the following command to generate an empty configuration file:
zlmmirror conf-generate filename.xml
This command generates a template configuration file named zlmmirror-config.xml in the current
directory.
You can also convert the configuration file from an earlier version of ZENworks Linux Management
or Red Carpet, or create configuration files manually. Configuration files are specified using the -c
flag:
zlmmirror command -c filename.xml
If no configuration file is specified, the default configuration file location is /etc/opt/novell/
zenworks/zlmmirror.xml.
You can check the configuration file for errors and display the parsed configuration information by
using the conf-validate (cv) filename command.
After you have a base configuration file created, the following tasks walk you through adding the
necessary configuration information:
"Step 1: Servers" on page 291
"Step 2: Catalog and Bundle Configuration" on page 294
Step 1: Servers
You must provide details about a remote server containing the software you want to mirror, and a
local server, which is your ZENworks Linux Management server receiving the mirrored software.
