You can use the zosadmin command line to learn what users or nodes are defined in your ZENworks Orchestrator system. Follow these steps to learn about the users and nodes in your system.
Log in to the ZENworks Orchestrator system by using the following command:
zosadmin login
You can also use the server’s host name as an argument when you log in.
If you use the grid= parameter, you can specify the grid name you want to log into. If other Orchestrator Servers are installed on the local host, the system cannot log in to any unless you use this parameter. For more information, see The zosadmin Command Line Tool
in the Novell ZENworks Orchestrator 1.3 Administration Guide.
Enter the administrator’s user name and password.
If the login was successful, the command line tool returns a message like this:
Logged into tszen4_grid on server 'tszen4.provo.novell.com'
Enter the following command to list the active users on your ZENworks Orchestrator system:
zosadmin users
You can add the --help option at the command line to determine the run options for this command.
Enter the following command to list the active nodes on your ZENworks Orchestrator system:
zosadmin nodes
You can add the --help option at the command line to determine the run options for this command.
