How to find out version of Ensim via shell command?

June 6th, 2007 by vicky

I always hated to go to Ensim to find out the current version of it.  Finally I  somewhere found a command that writes this info in shell.

He it is: 

cat /usr/lib/opcenter/VERSION

Ensim administrator password change

May 18th, 2007 by vicky

Many times it happened to me - I forgot Ensim’s admin password for web interface or DC has just set some password and they “forgot” to inform me. I usually struggled via ssh how to change it. Not anymore..

 When you need to reset Ensim password do it by this:

/usr/sbin/passwd_appl_admin <username>

It will prompt for the password only once.

Set date and time on a server

March 25th, 2007 by vicky

I will show you here how to set correct date and time on your server. All steps need to be done as root (which I assume you know).

To set correct time issue this command

/usr/bin/rdate -s time.nist.gov

It will connect to time server and synchs your time and date. After that command execute

/sbin/hwclock --systohc

which sets ‘permanent’ clock from the system time so that the time will be correct next time you reboot.

You can do this via a NTP daemon but it is too complicated for such an easy task as setting the date and time.
