Activity - Ability to issue commands (that support multiple selection) from a list based on current filter.

The activity display supports a maximum of 50 results per display page. This has previously impeded the ability to issue concurrent commands to more than 50 active tasks at once. The Activity list now supports the ability to issue commands against all task instances in the current filtered activity list.
 
Once you have filtered the Activity list to contain the tasks that you want to issue a command against. Simply right click on the List Header and select the Run Command on Filtered option:
 

 
You will be presented with a list of available commands to execute against all tasks in the filtered list:
 

 
Once you select a command you will see a confirmation dialog box where you can confirm or cancel this action:

Task Lists - Ability to issue commands (that support multiple selection) from a list based on current filter.

Similar to B-05326 the various Task lists now supports the "Run Command On Filtered" option to issue commands against all task instances in the current filtered task list.

Add Cluster Broadcast for UDM File Transfer Tasks Utility Agent

File Transfer Tasks using the UDM Transfer Protocol now support the Agent Cluster Broadcast functionality for the Tasks Utility Agent.
&nbap;
For Example a Linux/Unix Agent Cluster contains the following 3 Agents:
 

 
In order to configure a UDM file Transfer Task to transfer files from agent UCDDKR001 - UCDDKR001 to each of the agents in this Agent Cluster, you would configure the UDM file Transfer Task as follows:
 

Unknown macro: {html}

<ul>
<li> Utility Cluster Broadcast<br>
This will Launch an Instance of the UDM File Transfer Task on each of the 3 Agents in the Agent Cluster Definition.
<li>Source UDM Agent<br>
This specifies the single Agent where the file is being transferred from.
<li>Source File Name<br>
This specifies the file to be transferred to each of the 3 Agents in the Agent Cluster Definition.
<li>Destination UDM Agent Option = UDM Agent Variable<br>
This allows the specification of a variable in place of a hard coded destination agent name.
<li>Destination UDM Agent<br>
The built in variable $

Unknown macro: {ops_agent_name}

will resolve to the agent assigned to each task spawned by the Cluster Broadcast function, one task for each of the 3 Agents in the Agent Cluster Definition.
<li>Destination File Name<br>
Specifies the location to transfer the file(s) to on each of the destination agents.
</ul>

When you Launch the UDM File Transfer Task, the Controller will create a unique instance of the Task for each of the 3 Agents in the Agent Cluster Definition. And consequently the /tmp/ops_user.xml file on UCD-DKR001 will be transferred to /tmp/ops_user.xml on each of the 3 Agents in the Agent Cluster Definition.
 

Tip

If you also include the $

Unknown macro: {ops_agent_name}

variable in the UDM File Transfer Task Name, each of the spawned task instances will contain the name of the agent that it is associated with.
 
For Example:
 
  • No labels
