Remove your scripts from managed servers

When you run Extensible Discovery, it copies your scripts in “Customer Provided Scripts” to the specified managed servers. To remove the scripts from the managed servers, perform the following steps. For this scenario, assume you have a script named get_mysysdata.sh wrapped in the file get_mysysdata_v2.5.zip.

1. Create a new version of your .zip file with a new version number, for example get_mysysdata_v2.6.zip.
2. Copy everything from the old .zip file into the new .zip file, except for the script you want to remove from managed servers, get_mysysdata.sh in this example.
3. Import your .zip file into a package in SA.
   
   For convenience, you can place your packages in /Opsware/Tools/Extensible Discovery/Customer Provided Components. Make sure your imported package specifies the proper target operating system.
   
   For instructions on importing packages, see "Software management" in the SA Use section.
4. Open your package in the SA Client and set the Default Install Path property to one of the following and save your changes.
   • UNIX: /var/opt/opsware/extensible_discovery/scripts
   • Windows: %ProgramFiles%\Common Files\Opsware\extensible_discovery\scripts\. SA replaces %ProgramFiles% with the appropriate system Program Files directory.
5. Open the software policy “Customer Provided Scripts”. If you are using your own software policy, open your policy.
6. Remove the old .zip file, get_mysysdata_v2.5.zip in this example.
7. Add your new .zip file, get_mysysdata_v2.6.zip in this example.
8. If you are using the software policy “Customer Provided Scripts”, Run Extensible Discovery as described below. This removes your script from the managed servers.
   
   If you are using your own software policy, remediate the managed servers. This removes the scripts from the managed servers.
