<h1 class="topictitle1">Distribute fixes to multiple servers with <span class="keyword">iSeries Navigator</span></h1>
|
||
|
|
<div><p>If you have a network of iSeries™ servers that you want to keep
|
||
|
|
at the same fix level, find out how simple your servers are to manage when
|
||
|
|
you use the Compare and Update wizard. Find out how to install your fixes
|
||
|
|
on remote systems with <span class="keyword">iSeries Navigator</span>.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>After you have received your fixes, you can use <span class="keyword">iSeries Navigator</span> to
|
||
|
|
distribute your fixes to other servers in your network. In the past, object
|
||
|
|
distribution and Systems Network Architecture distribution services (SNADS)
|
||
|
|
were the choices when you wanted to send objects. If you are in a TCP/IP environment,
|
||
|
|
you can now use the <span class="keyword">iSeries Navigator</span> graphical
|
||
|
|
interface function of Management Central to send and distribute your fixes.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>To understand how a network is set up, see the following list for a description
|
||
|
|
of the different roles. A single system can assume more than one role. For
|
||
|
|
example, the same system can be the central system, the source system, and
|
||
|
|
a model system.</p>
|
||
|
|
<dl><dt class="dlterm">Central system</dt>
|
||
|
|
<dd>Central system directs and tracks activity in your environment. It has
|
||
|
|
an active iSeries Access
|
||
|
|
connection from your graphical client, and it is currently selected as the
|
||
|
|
central system. Its server and inventory provide your view of the Management
|
||
|
|
Central tasks and endpoints.</dd>
|
||
|
|
<dt class="dlterm">Endpoint systems</dt>
|
||
|
|
<dd>Endpoint systems are the systems that you are managing in your environment.
|
||
|
|
The endpoint systems are controlled by the central system. The endpoint systems
|
||
|
|
were discovered or created on your central system.</dd>
|
||
|
|
<dt class="dlterm">Source system</dt>
|
||
|
|
<dd>This is the system from which items are sent when performing a task. The
|
||
|
|
source system is the source of the item that is sent. This is the system that
|
||
|
|
you have selected to be the repository for the save files for the fixes that
|
||
|
|
you will distribute to your other servers.</dd>
|
||
|
|
<dt class="dlterm">Target system</dt>
|
||
|
|
<dd>This is the system to which items are sent when performing a task. The
|
||
|
|
target system is the destination of the item that is sent.</dd>
|
||
|
|
<dt class="dlterm">Model system</dt>
|
||
|
|
<dd>This is the system that is set up exactly the way you want it with regard
|
||
|
|
to installed fixes. It has the fixes installed that you decided should be
|
||
|
|
installed. You want the other systems that you are managing to have the same
|
||
|
|
fixes installed as the model system. When you use the Compare and Update wizard,
|
||
|
|
you make managing your fixes a lot easier.</dd>
