Re-register a Trusted Host Using the Registration Tool (Windows)

When you install a Web Agent on a server for the first time, you are prompted to register that server as a trusted host. After the trusted host is registered, you do not have to re-register with subsequent Agent installations. There are some situations where you may need to re-register a trusted host independently of installing an Agent, such as the following:

The registration tool, smreghost, re-registers a trusted host. This tool is installed in the web_agent_home\bin directory when you install a Web Agent.

To re-register a trusted host using the registration tool

  1. Open a command prompt window.
  2. Enter the smreghost command using the following required arguments:
    smreghost -i policy_server_IP_address:[port]
    -u administrator_username -p Administrator_password
    -hn hostname_for_registration -hc host_configuration_ object
    

    Note: Separate each command argument from its value with a space. Surround any values that contain spaces with double quotes ("). See the following

    example:

    smreghost -i 123.123.1.1 -u SiteMinder -p mypw -hn "host computer A" 
    -hc DefaultHostSettings
    

    The following example contains the -o argument:

    smreghost -i 123.123.1.1 -u SiteMinder -p mypw -hn "host computer A"
    -hc DefaultHostSettings -o
    

    The following arguments are used with the smreghost command:

    The trusted host is re-registered.
