Lookaside Database with Less Than Four Tables

You can also create one, two, or three tables. For example, if you want to use the lookaside database to resolve hosts only, complete the following steps:

1. After you install CA ControlMinder, change the following tokens in the [seosd] section of the seos.ini file:
   • Set under_NIS_server to blank.
   • Set HostResolution to ladb.
2. Run sebuildla -h to create a table of all hosts, including local and DNS hosts.

   or

   Run sebuildla -e to create a table of local hosts only (defined in /etc/hosts).

To create a lookaside database with other tables, use the appropriate tokens in the seos.ini file and then run the appropriate option with sebuildla.

Note: For descriptions of these tokens, see the seos.ini initialization file in the Reference Guide. For more information about sebuildla, see the Utilities Guide.

Important! Run sebuildla whenever you add a host.
