dpmutil -dhcp_unix Command--Configure DHCP for UNIX

The dpmutil set|get dhcp_unix command configures the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) servers that assign IP addresses to JumpStart client computers. The command also provides a reference to the JumpStart boot server and boot file for these client computers. Your CA Server Automation administrator user name and password are required to set or get information.

This command has the following format:

dpmutil {-set|-get|-delete} -dhcp_unix [-locale iso639value]
-set

Configures the server name, user name, and password for the DHCP server.

-get

Lists the configuration settings for the DHCP servers including the assigned server name and user name.

UNIX username: root

-delete

Deletes DHCP servers from CA Server Automation, but they remain in the Management DB and Performance DB for historical purposes. You are prompted for each parameter.

-dhcp_unix

Defines the type of operating system of the DHCP server that you are configuring.

-locale iso639value

(Optional) Specifies an IS0 639_3166 combination to override the default English output, for example, fr_FR for French. To use the locale of the command prompt, specify "native".
