Remove Unmanaged Mode Information from the SystemEDGE Configuration

The following procedure describes how to remove unmanaged mode information from SystemEDGE configuration on a particular server and to prepare the server to change to managed mode.

Follow these steps:

1. Log in the server on which you want to change the configuration mode for SystemEDGE.
2. Create the following backup directories at a convenient location:

   data.backup
   config.backup
   

3. Stop SystemEDGE, using the normal mechanism.
4. Navigate to the 'data' directory of SystemEDGE and open the port<number> directory. The default directory is port161.

   The content of the directory is listed.

5. Move the following file to your data.backup directory so that it no longer appears in the port<number> directory:

   sysedge.cf
   

6. Change to the 'config' directory of SystemEDGE.

   The content of the directory is listed.

7. Copy the following file to your config.backup directory:

   sysedge.cf
   

8. Navigate to the 'config' directory, open the sysedge.cf file in a text editor, and scroll down to the bottom of the file.
9. Add the following line:

   manager_name <hostname of the manager>
   

10. Save the file and start SystemEDGE.

    SystemEDGE creates a sysedge.cf file in the 'data' directory.
