deploy plugin

Adds the configuration information for a single instance of the cluster to the Unified Agent.

You can use deploy plugin to configure the Unified Agent to manage a cluster if you created the cluster without using the SAP® Control Centeror sybcluster utility, or if you need to re-create the Unified Agent configuration for a cluster. The configuration of a cluster instance is performed by deploying a Unified Agent plug-in.

Syntax

deploy plugin 
	[ login login_name ] 
	[ password password ] 
	[ agent agent_spec ] 
	[ discovery discovery_spec ]

Parameters

login login_name – is the management agent login for the Sybase Common Security Infrastructure in the Unified Agent framework.
The default user name after installation is “uafadmin” with no password; this is the Simple Login Module in the Agent configuration. You can configure the user name and password to use several different mechanisms for authentication and authorization, including operating system logins.
password password – is the management agent password for the Sybase Common Security Infrastructure in the Unified Agent framework.
The default user name after installation is “uafadmin” with no password; this is the Simple Login Module in the Agent configuration. You can configure the user name and password to use several different mechanisms for authentication and authorization, including operating system logins.
agent agent_spec – is the agent specification that identifies the nodes in the cluster running a Unified Agent, and the port number that sybcluster uses to connect to the Unified Agent.
The format is “node_name:port_number [, node_name:port_number] [,...]]”. The default port number is “9999”.
discovery discovery_spec – is the discovery method used to identify the agents responsible for the requested cluster.
The format is “method[(method_specification)] [, (method_specification)[,...]]”. See the description for sybcluster -d discovery_list for more information about discovery methods.

Examples

Deploy plug-in using UAF agent – Deploys the plug-in using the UAF agent on host “system1501”:
```
deploy plugin agent system1501
```
sybcluster prompts for the cluster name, cluster node number, installation mode, full path to the quorum device, the environment shell script path, and the SAP ASE home directory.
Deploy plug-in using discovery – Deploys the plug-in using discovery to identify the agent:
```
deploy plugin discovery udp
```

Usage

After you execute deploy plugin, sybcluster prompts you for:

Path to the quorum device.
Path to the Sybase home directory.
Installation mode (private or shared) – the default is shared.
Location of your Sybase environment script – this must be a shell script that can be loaded using the “.file_name” syntax, such as “sh” or “bash.” An example is SYBASE.sh.
Location of your SAP ASE software directory – the default is <sybase_home_directory>/ASE-15_0. When entering the location of the SAP ASE software directory, include the full path. Do not use $SYBASE.

The dataserver login and password are configured using the login command, which updates all Adaptive Server plug-ins managing the cluster.
