Setting the DSD mode on Solaris (BigFix scenario)

If a computer runs the Solaris operating system and is in the DSD domain, set the DSD mode to ensure that metric utilization is correctly calculated for software that is installed on this computer. If you do not set the DSD mode, Solaris machines in DSD might not be properly identified and metric utilization might be underestimated.

Procedure

  1. Log in to the BigFix console.
  2. In the navigation tree, click Sites > External Sites > IBM License Reporting (ILMT) > Fixlets and Tasks.
  3. Select Set DSD Mode and then in the lower pane, click Take Action.
  4. Select computers for which you want to set the DSD mode, and click OK.
  5. Optional: If you want to remove the DSD mode, use the Unset DSD Mode task.
