When you build a new K-TAP module
for a Linux database server, you can copy that module to other database
servers that run the same Linux distribution.
Before you begin
Use this procedure after you have built and tested a
K-TAP module
on a Linux database server.
About this task
If you use the Guardium Installation Manager (GIM) to manage agents on your database
servers, use GIM to copy the module. See the link below for the procedure to use.
Procedure
- Log in to the database server with the tested K-TAP.
- Change directory to /usr/local/guardium/guard_stap/ktap/current/ and run
./guard_ktap_append_modules to add the locally built modules to
modules.tgz.
- Copy the updated modules.tgz file to the target server.
- Log in to the target server and change directory to
/usr/local/guardium/guard_stap/ktap/current/.
- Run the K-TAP loader
with the retry parameter and the full path to
the updated modules.tgz file. For example:
guard_ktap_loader retry /tmp/modules-9.0.0_r55927_v90_1.tgz
- Restart the S-TAP to
connect it to the new K-TAP module.
Results
The custom
K-TAP module
is ready to use on the target system. Repeat this procedure for each
matching Linux system to which you want to deploy the
K-TAP module.
