Installing software on a large number of Systems
Hi,
I'm new to the unix world and I would like to know if anyone can give me some pointers as to how to install and run a program on a large number of servers easily. Can anyone offer any pointers please?
F.y.i I have developed a program in C to collect performance data from AIX systems. Installing and collecting on a single system is easy but doing it over 500 systems is a different ball game altogether.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Cheers
Stuart

which software is recommended for backup of UNIX systems ( e.g. SUN, Solaris ). Backup software and database e.g. Oracle.
One possibility is Networker, but license is expensive and also service contract.

image::exiftool::fixup
Image::ExifTool::Fixup(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation Image::ExifTool::Fixup(3)
NAME
Image::ExifTool::Fixup - Utility to handle pointer fixups
SYNOPSIS
use Image::ExifTool::Fixup;
$fixup = new Image::ExifTool::Fixup;
# add a new fixup to a pointer at the specified offset in data
$fixup->AddFixup($offset);
# add a new Fixup object to the tree
$fixup->AddFixup($subFixup);
$fixup->{Start} += $shift1; # shift pointer offsets and values
$fixup->{Shift} += $shift2; # shift pointer values only
# recursively apply fixups to the specified data
$fixup->ApplyFixups($data);
$fixup->Dump(); # dump debugging information
DESCRIPTION
This module contains the code to keep track of pointers in memory and to shift these pointers as required. It is used by ExifTool to
maintain the pointers in image file directories (IFD's).
NOTES
Keeps track of pointers with different byte ordering, and relies on Image::ExifTool::GetByteOrder() to determine the current byte ordering
when adding new pointers to a fixup.
Maintains a hierarchical list of fixups so that the whole hierarchy can be shifted by a simple shift at the base. Hierarchy is collapsed
to a linear list when ApplyFixups() is called.
