Targets File Specifications Parent topic

The targets file used during remote agent installation contains the IP address of target endpoints. The targets file uses CSV format and has the file name targets.csv by default.
Tip
Tip
Remote agent setup using the SLrst command line program can be done in batches using more than one targets file and the same endpoint info file. The endpoint info file can contain information for endpoints outside the scope of the target endpoints listed in the targets file.
To create customized targets CSV files, specify the IP address of each target endpoint. Use one line per record. Use of spaces, quotation marks, or other delimiters is not supported.
For example:
Valid
 
Targeted IP
10.1.199.199
10.1.199.201
192.168.1.20
Not Valid
 
10.1.199.199,10.1.199.201
"10.1.199.199"
"10.1.199.201"
"192.168.1.20"
Tip
Tip
The targets file can be reused. Therefore, you can use the same targets file to deploy, patch, and uninstall a batch of target endpoints. Check the log information and make backups of any critical information each time you run the SLrst program. SLrst ignores and overwrites any log information in the file each time it is run.
