How to set environment variables ms cluster through bigfix

1

(imported topic written by jskim91)

I need help on a script I create to be push out through bigfix, two lines in the script have fail. I line in the script that fails is

set vIDSName=IDS85026C

I need to deployed this script to about 500 severs, the name changes set vIDSName= has to be the clustername on that server. When I did it with set vIDSName=%ComputerName% it work but it had IDS85026P instead of the C at the End. I need to have it look like the computer name without the p and replace it with the C at the end. Is this possible?

I presume you are writing out a VB script in your action using ‘createfile’ or ‘appendfile’ and then launching it in your action? If so, when you write out the script, you can use:

set vIDSName={computer name & “C”}

Jesse if I replace it with set vIDSName={computer name & “C”} it will be the computer name which has a p at the end I need to replace the p with the c for computer name. IDS85026P is the computer name of the server I need it to read IDS85026C.

ah… try this:

set vIDSName={preceding text of last “p” of (computer name as lowercase) & “C”}
