Adding hosts to License Management Service using the Auto Configure (gendeploy.pl) script
If License Management Service is installed as a standalone product, then you need to add the hosts that have InfoScale products to License Management Service. However if License Management Service is installed on the same host that has InfoScale Operations Manager, then the host data is refreshed automatically on License Management Service console. The add host operation on License Management Service is disabled and can be performed only using the InfoScale Operations Manager console.
You can add a host to License Management Service with minimal user interaction using the gendeploy.pl script. The Auto Configure (gendeploy.pl) script is available for download. You need to copy the script that is created using gendeploy.pl to all the hosts that you want to add to License Management Service for management. After you copy the script, you have to run it on each host. A host on which you run the script must have the VRTSsfmh package installed on it. Adding many hosts to License Management Service at the same time using the Auto Configure (gendeploy.pl) script can affect the performance. It is recommended that you add no more than 50 hosts at a time.
Ensure that the minimum version requirement of managed host package as mentioned in Arctera License Management Service Software Compatibility List is met. Else there can be issues while discovering the host and the operation may fail.
