Page contents

Quick Deployer makes use of tagging to ensure it only installs and executes the required scripting and middleware on the individual servers in the environment. By following this topic it ensures that when you create a UCD Environment all the required tags are available.

Create agent tags

Ensure you are in the folder where you previously expanded the IBM Quick Deployer installation package eg /media/QD
Ensure the following files are present
- tagsCreate.sh
- tagsCreate.json
Assign execute permission to the tagsCreate.sh script
ensure JAVA_HOME is set. If not export JAVA_HOME={location of your jre} (e.g. /usr/lib/jvm/jre)
ensure UCDCLIEXE is set. If not export UCDCLIEXE={location of your udclient exe} (e.g. /opt/ibm-ucd/agent/opt/udclient/udclient)
Execute the tagsCreate.sh script
The script expects 3 arguments as key=value pairs:
- USERNAME =UCDAdminUserName
- USERPASSWORD =UCDAdminUserPassword
- UCDSERVER =UCDURL (e.g. https://UCDHostName:8443)
  - as lots of information is written to the screen it is recommended that when executing the script the output should be piped through the tee program for post processing.
```
    cd /media/QD
    chmod 755 tagsCreate.sh
    export JAVA_HOME={location of your jre}
    export UCDCLIEXE=/opt/ibm-ucd/agent/opt/udclient/udclient

    sh tagsCreate.sh USERNAME=adminuser USERPASSWORD=adminpassword UCDSERVER=ucdurl:port | tee console_tagsCreate.log
    >> deleted console text <<
    end of file [tagsCreate.sh]
   
```

Notes:

Throughout the IBM Quick Deployer wiki the screen captures are for reference only.
In some cases if the functionality they display has not changed in the latest release they will be from a previous release
