Load Attributes and Values and Assign to Hosts

Function: This utility provides an efficient method of assigning attributes to a large number of hosts.

To create an inventory of a large number of host attributes and associated values using a bulk load utility, see Rename Attributes Before Upgrading.

Before You Begin

Bulk Load utilities must be run in SQLPLUS as user APTARE. The load_package utility is located in:

/opt/aptare/database/stored_procedures (Linux)

\opt\oracle\database\stored_procedures (Windows)

Take the following steps to load attributes and values and assign those attributes to hosts:

1. Create a CSV File of Hosts, Attributes, and Values

2. Execute the Load Host Attribute Utility

3. Verify the Host Attributes Load

4. Create a report template using a Report Template Designer.

Once attribute values are assigned to hosts, a report can query the database to report on hosts, filtered by the attributes that you’ve created to categorize them.
