Propagating the Kerberos Server
The prpadmin Administrative Application
Chapter 9 257
The prpadmin Administrative Application
The /opt/krb5/adm/prpadmin administrative application runs on all
security servers and helps you manage the propagation system. For
example, to propagate all the contents of the primary principal database
to all the secondary security servers, execute the prpadmin full_dump
command on the primary security server.
You can run prpadmin from the command line or in a shell-like command
loop.
If you run prpadmin from the command line, you must specify a
particular command, as shown in the following example:
#./prpadmin full_dump
To run prpadmin in a shell-like command loop, execute prpadmin
without any command, and specify a particular command, as shown in
the following example:
#./prpadmin > full_dump
Typically, commands have the format command [hostnames]. On the
primary security server, the only valid host names belong to secondary
security servers; on the secondary security servers, the only valid host
name is that of the primary security server or those secondary security
servers that act as child servers to the parent secondary security server.
Specify host names as FQDN.
