managed node where WebJetAdmin is installed. The parameter %n is used to substitute the managed
node hostname. The <toolbox-enabled> element can have a value of true or false. If the
<toolbox-enabled> element is true, it will be associated with the Toolboxes under Systems Insight
Manager User and Authorization. This allows a trusted user to disable the tool in the Toolbox if
the value is false. This tool launches in a separate browser window using the "target-frame" of
WJAFrame. For additional parameters, see

“mxtool command parameters” (page 191)

.

NOTE:

In the previous example, hostname.domain should be replaced with the FQDN of

where the WebJetAdmin tool is running.

For more information about specific web launch tool requirements and attributes, see

“WLA-specific

attributes” (page 190)

Example MSA tool

The MSA tool executes on the CMS and is functional with multiple targets. The process executes
once, and then is passed to all targets selected. The example below shows an MSA tool that
deploys the SSH

public key

to the selected managed target nodes as long as those nodes are

recognized as iLO devices on an HP single partition server. To do this manually, the administrator
would:

Log on as Administrator on the CMS

Use Start/Run or a command line prompt to enter the command.

mxagentconfig –a- n nodename –u username –p password

Repeat the command for each managed system

Log off the system

The <msa-block> element (in bold below) initiates mxagentconfig and requires the user name
and password parameters.
