In some cases, DPOD users wants to remove DPODs related configuration from monitored device (IDG). Example : temporary monitoring non-production device for product demonstration.
The user has two basic ways to remove DPODs related configuration from monitored IDG devices :
- Manually as describe in the in the in How to Uninstall DPOD from DataPower
- Using DPOD IDG configuration tool
The DPOD IDG configuration tool is a simple tool that enables the user to backup DPODs related configuration of IDG before starting monitor the IDG using DPOD.
If needed, the tool can also remove the DPOD configuration from IDG monitored device.
Backing up the IDG configuration
Use the app_idg_pre_conf_bck.sh script located in the directory /app/scripts.
The script will back up the following IDG objects configuration:
- XML management interface
- WS-M agent configuration (default domain and appliaction domains)
- Certificate monitor
The script parameters are :
Operation | Purpose |
-i, --idg-ip | IDG xml management interface IP address or host name |
-p, --idg-port | IDG xml management interface port |
-u, --idg-user | IDG xml management interface user name |
-s, --idg-pass | IDG xml management interface user password |
The script backup directory and log file will be displayed in a message at the end of execution
example of the script execution :
app_idg_pre_conf_bck.sh -i 192.168.65.80 -p 5550 -u admin -s 123456
Removing DPOD configuration and restoring IDG objects based on the backup information
In order to remove DPOD configuration from IDG monitored device use the script app_idg_pre_conf_restore.sh located in the directory /app/scripts.
If you did not run app_idg_pre_conf_bck.sh before installing DPOD - you can still remove some of the configuration automatically by running it now, and letting it backup the current configuration
By doing so - the restore process will not revert the settings to the previous pre-DPOD state, but it will still automatically delete all DPOD's log targets and host aliases
The script will restore the following IDG objects configuration based on the backup file :
- XML management interface
- WS-M agent configuration
- Certificate monitor
Farther more, the script will remove the following DPOD related configuration:
- DPOD related host aliases
- DPOD log targets
- DPOD log category
- Disable statistics
- Remove two XSLT files deployed by DPOD to store directory
The script parameters are :
Operation | Purpose |
-i, --idg-ip | IDG xml management interface IP address or host name |
-p, --idg-port | IDG xml management interface port |
-u, --idg-user | IDG xml management interface user name |
-s, --idg-pass | IDG xml management interface user password |
| -d, --backup-dir | source backup directory |
Since the original backed up configuration might have changed between the period of the backup and the restore,
the script will display the backup data and will give the user the opportunity to change the configuration to restore.
This is an example of the XML management interface restore menu :
The script log file will be displayed in a message at the end of execution.
