How to Discover SAP MaxDB by Shell

This section describes how to discover the topology of SAP MaxDB by Shell.

This task includes the following steps:

Prerequisite - Connectivity and user store
1. Shell connectivity to a MaxDB Node.
2. Properly configured key store containing one key for each MaxDB instance being discovered.
  
  Note Because the command xuser is used to run the dbmcli tool, you must create a key store on the destination so the call for the tool is properly authenticated.
Prerequisite - Set up protocol credentials
Define one of the following credentials, depending on the platform:
- SSH
- Telnet
- NTCMD
For credential information, see Supported Protocols.
Run the discovery
1. Run the Range IPs by ICMP job to discover the target IPs.
2. Run the Host Connection by Shell job to discover the target host and shell connectivity to it.
3. Run the Host Applications by Shell job to discover the resources of the target host, including MaxDB software and relevant processes.
4. Run the MaxDb by Shell job to discover the topology of the target MaxDB database.
