NAME¶

smt_dns_ra_support.conf - The configuration file for the DNS Management using WBEM technologies.

SYNOPSIS¶

The smt_dns_ra_support.conf file is used to configure the WBEM-SMT instrumentation components. It defines several configuration parameters that are required to run the CMPI provider correctly.

DESCRIPTION¶

This configuration file is used to define some variables used for the WBEM-SMT DNS Instrumentation. The providers will pick up the values from this file and process according to these settings.

FILE FORMAT¶

The file is used in the ini-style format. Which means to set a configuration parameter you have to specify a name value pair like

<name> = <value>

where name is a known configuration parameter and value a valid value for the configuration parameter.

Is a line starting with # then the line is used as a comment. Empty lines are totally ignored from any processing.

ERROR HANDLING¶

If an attribute name is not known, it will be ignored from any further processing.
Misspelled values or values which are exceeding the values ranges will automatically be replaced by the attributes default value.

CONFIGURATION PARAMETERS¶

bindconf

The bindconf attribute defines the location of the bind configuration. Since it is possible to locate the named.conf file on various places and to name it in a freeformated way, this needs to be configurable.
The default is '/etc/named.conf'

scriptdir

The scriptdir attribute defines the location of helper scripts which are used by the resource access layer to read from the configuration files or to write the data to the configuration files.
The default is '/usr/share/sblim-cmpi-dns'

initscript

The initscript attribute defines the location and the name of the init script which is used to start/stop/restart the DNS server.
The default is '/etc/init.d/named'

named_path

The named_path attribute defines the name of the named executable.
The default is '/etc/init.d/named'
