Defining the Execute Node
The Execute node is used to implement the defined changes on devices.
|
Tip: The Execute node cannot be executed unless the change management task is approved. See Defining the Approval Node to submit the approval request.
|
- Click the Execute node in the runbook.
- On the Execute pane, define the following settings:
- Select a change node from the drop-down list. The related devices and change commands will be loaded.
-
Click the
icon next to the Execute button at the bottom to set the execution methods:
- One by One Automatically — push change commands to a device, then push them to the next device automatically after a brief pause.
- In Batches Automatically — push change commands to a batch of devices, then push them to the next batch automatically after a brief pause.
- One by One Manually — push change commands to a device manually, and you need to click Execute to push commands to the next device manually.
- Sleep Time between all commands — the time interval of sending CLI commands. By default, the interval is 2 seconds.
- Keep the Pre-check Hostname before Execution option. With this option selected, the system will check whether the hostnames of devices change before sending commands. The commands will not be sent to the devices with hostname changes.
