dsmPush--Push Client Automation Component Installation Packages to Domain Manager

The dsmPush tool is used to import (or "push") and create Client Automation component installation packages from the installation DVD into the domain manager. The dsmPush tool can be used to import packages suitable for use by either Infrastructure Deployment or Software Delivery.

Language independent base packages are provided on the installation DVD for the Basic Hardware Inventory (BHI) agent, Asset Management (AM) agent, Remote Control (RC) agent, and Software Delivery (SD) agent. The language independent base packages already include the English (ENU) language package; therefore, there is no separate English (ENU) language package.

You can create your own set of agent packages using the dsmPush tool. You can specify which agent combination and which languages you want. For example, you can create a package containing Software Delivery and Remote Control with the Spanish and Korean language packs.

For further details, see the “About Agent Language Package Creation and Installation” section in the Implementation Guide.

As part of setup a predefined set of packages are pushed onto the Client Automation manager. With the dsmPush tool you can push these packages again or create new packages to push.

The dsmPush tool is written using Client Automation scripting language and provides a check function to validate and list existing packages in the Client Automation manager, and a copy function which performs the push or creation of the packages into the Client Automation manager.

On Windows, dsmPush is called as follows:

dmscript.exe pathname\dsmPush.dms {copy | check} [-I imagelocation] [parameters ...]
The parameter -? shows a "Usage" to the user.
