Figure 4-25 Migrate internal flow

4.5.4 Migrate an OS agent

Figure 4-26 on page 279 shows the internal flow of the migration of an OS agent.

This step still uses the Migrate Java class that in this case is responsible for

interacting with the Tivoli Management Framework.

A call is made to a Corba object, an interface called

MigrationITMManagerEPA::installOSAgent. This interface defines a dependency

called ITMMTKInstallOSAgent, which is responsible for downloading a script

called createNode.sh to the hub monitoring server endpoint; this script runs the

tacmd createNode command on the monitoring server.

An output file containing the result of the tacmd createNode command is saved in

the monitoring server endpoint directories.
