[cferbrache]

When trying to run a pre & post clone command I get the following error:

You need to allow the script or any scripts/cmds on agent please edit the scAgent3.4.0/config/agent.conf

Add following:

comnand: preclone_cmd_v2.sh

Keith

[cferbrache]

I will give that a try. I have the full path in there currently. Do you also need all the commands that are used within the script?

[cferbrache]

Here is my agent.conf. It still didn't work.

############################################

### SnapCreator Agent Configuration File ###

############################################

######################################################################

### Command to allow or wildcard "*" can be used to allow anything ###

######################################################################

host: scServer@10.0.4.125

command: /bin/echo

command: /bin/date

command: /etc/init.d/iscsi

command: /bin/sleep

command: /sbin/pvscan

command: /sbin/vgscan

command: /sbin/vgchange

command: /usr/sbin/lvscan

command: /bin/mount

command: /bin/service

command: preclone_cmd_v2.sh

command: postclone_cmd_v2.sh

command: *

[ktenzer]

No just the script command: preclone_cmd_v2.sh

[ktenzer]

Try changing agent.conf to:

host: scServer@*

command: *

[cferbrache]

I changed the agent.conf as you suggested. Still same issue.

[ktenzer · Accepted solution]

Can you please try moving your script to temp

/usr/local/scAgent3.4.0/config/postclone_cmd_v2.sh

so

/tmp/postclone_cmd_v2.sh

Then updating config file to go to /tmp/postclone_cmd_v2.sh and tryining again? I think we dont allow anything to run under scAgent3.4.0 directory for security reasons.

This does work believe me, just need to find out what is issue in your env

Also if you could send me agent.conf that would be helpful, the way it is now and Snap Creator config file?

Keith

[cferbrache]

I just tried it with the postclone_cmd_v2.sh in /tmp and it worked just fine.

[ktenzer]

Ok yeah sorry about that, I forgot we disable any script to run under scAgent3.4.0 directory (I think just under config directory), this is for security reasons. You can run and setup scripts anywhere else just not under that directory.

Also did you have NGS case for this? Engineering got an escalation for something that sounded very similar?

Case number is 2002360879, please let us know and NGS if this is your case that you have solution. NGS will want to capture this for any future cases

Regards,

Keith

[ktenzer]

I just checked again

Any script or command located under scAgent3.4.0 will be refused, anywhere else is allowed as long as you specify command in agent.conf

command: * - This allows everything

command: postclone_cmd_v2.sh - just would allow your script as long as * insnt also set

Regards,

Keith

[cferbrache]

Yes there is a case. I have updated it with this information. Thanks again for you help in resolving this.

[cferbrache]

Good to know. This probabaly needs to be added to the documentation.
