Extended Notify Security to remote notify for patches

Hello,

I would like to execute remote command to download patches but I have applied "Extended Notify Security to validate remote notify" https://radiasupport.accelerite.com/hc/en-us/articles/203659824 and when I type Radntfyc.exe localhost -l Token -p PASSWORD -e ENCRYPT Token it use command from the ZNFYCMDL Radntfyc localhost radskman ip=<core-ip>,dname=software,uid=$machine,cop=y,log=connect.log.

There is other way to run command remotely to agent to download patches (not software)?

Should I use some special switches for Radntfyc.exe or add special values for class Extended Security Notify in CSDB?

use ZNFYCMDL as radskman ip=<core-ip>,dname=patch,uid=$machine,cop=y,log=patchconnect.log

OK. Understand. But all that option are static.

And what if I want to notify client to install only one application with parameters sname=EXAMPLE_ZSERVICE ?

you are correct Pawel. if you want specific software then you should use sname=<name_of_software> clause in radskman command.

And how to use it with that command? Radntfyc.exe localhost -l Token -p PASSWORD -e ENCRYPT Token ?

Or should I create for every ~500 application in my database ZNFYCMDL option?

There is some option to use it flexible or it is only static command?

Hi Pawel,

New instance named say for example :"SOFTINST" can be added to the ZNFYXSEC class with the command line that ends with a , (comma) in the ZNFYCMDL.

We can then create a Job template or supply the sname = <SERVICENAME> argument when launching and this command as shown below.

Radntfyc.exe localhost -l SOFTINST -p PASSWORD -e ENCRYPT SOFTINST sname=<SERVICENAME>

This way sname can be a variable and any service can be installed with just one instance created in the ZNFYXSEC. For more information/help on this please log a support case with Radia Support and we will be happy to help you set this up.

NOTE: Am using ZNFYNAME "SOFTINST" instead of "Token"

Hi Fazahath,

It's not working for me. Probably because there is space sign in command.

I used command Radntfyc.exe localhost -l Token -p PASSWORDToken sname=BAUER_BDNFONTS02_EN,log=_Install_BAUER_BDNFONTS02_EN.log

Logs from file radexecd.log

NVD000001I [xsecure_set    ] 11:57:36 [RADEXECD / 0000079c] SYSTEM ---  parameters accepted[dname=SOFTWARE,cop=y sname=BAUER_BDNFONTS02_EN,log=_Install_BAUER_BDNFONTS02_EN.log]

In my environemnt option ZNFYCMDL is radskman dname=SOFTWARE,cop=y without any space sign at the end.

The ZNFYCMDL needs to end with a comma, 

radskman dname=SOFTWARE,cop=y,

Hello Pawel,

you have to define more tokens in CSDB - like SWConnect for current, Patchconnect, UpdateOnly, Inventory etc. One for every action you want notify agents.
