Chapter 9 Configuration Extraction Tool

Remote CET Extracts

•Informix 7.2, or higher, must be installed on both your local host and the remote host. (If CWM is installed on either host, you have met the requirement for that host.

•You must know the password to the svplus user ID at the remote host.

Note You cannot obtain a remote CET extract from a PC.

To configure the workstations for remote data extraction, follow these steps:

Step 1 Set the environment variable INFORMIXSERVER to the hostname of the remote host. That is, issue the following Unix command: setenv INFORMIXSERVER <remotehostname>

Step 2 Setup your local host with an Informix sqlhosts entry for the remote host.

a.Edit your /usr/users/informix72/etc/sqlhosts file.

b.Add a new entry of the following form (filling in the blanks): <remotehostname> ontlitcp <remotehostaddr> informix_istar

Note <remotehostaddr> is the IP address of the remote host; but, if you can ping the remote host by name, you can alternatively use the hostname of the remote host. Whichever you choose, use the same remotehostaddr in the two steps below.

Step 3 Setup your local host for “friendly” ftp access to the remote host’s svplus userid.

a.Edit (or create) the .netrc file in your home directory.

b.Add a new entry of the following form (filling in the blanks): machine <remotehostaddr> login svplus password <password>

Note <password> is the password to the svplus account at the remote host. Therefore, your .netrc file

should not allow others to read it. You can use the Unix command, chmod 600 ~/.netrc

Step 4 Setup the svplus userid on the remote host to allow remote shell access from your local host:

a.Remotely log on to the remote host as user svplus: rlogin <remotehostaddr> -l svplus

b.Edit (or create) the .rhosts file in the svplus home directory.

c.Add a new entry of the following form: <localhostname> <yourlocaluserID>

Note <localhostname> must be the official name of your host, not one of its nicknames. If you don’t know it, execute the command, “who am i”, after you have logged on to the remote host. Your official host name will appear within parentheses ().

To check whether your setup is correct, run the svp-revand swt-revcommands. If both commands work correctly, your setup is correct.
