Overview

The Get Info action is a key function within the system, responsible for retrieving general information from hosts and storing it in the LCC console. This action is essential to ensure that machine data remains current and accurate.

The Get Info action runs in a chained manner. This means that whenever an action that modifies the host’s operating system configuration is executed (such as installing a package), the Get Info action automatically runs right after the previous action is completed. This ensures that the information displayed in the LCC remains reliable and up-to-date. As a result, the integrity and accuracy of the LCC’s data are maintained.

Purpose

This document aims to explain the purpose and functionality of the Get Info action in the Linux Control Center (LCC).

Running the Get Info Action

  1. Click on Hosts from the left-hand menu in the LCC.

  2. Select one or more hosts by checking the box next to the hostname, then click the Actions button at the top of the page, or click the Actions button on the desired host’s row.

  3. After clicking Actions, select Get Info.

  4. Click Yes to confirm execution.

  5. Open the host where the action was sent and click Actions History. The Get Info action is identified as Photography.

  6. Wait for the Photography actions to reach the Processed status.
