The Service Tags Support

Service Tags enables automatic discovery of systems, software and services. A service tag uniquely identifies each tagged asset, and allows the asset information to be shared over a local network in a standard XML format.

The Grid Engine can create a service tag for one cluster installation. A service tag entry is stored in the Service Tag registry. Each service tag has an unique instance identifier which is generated when the record is added to the registry. This identifier is used as the key when accessing the record.

The discoverer and listener services installed together with Service Tags on a host. They provide a way to discover a service tags via the network. The discoverer is a UDP-based application which exists to provide information about the listener. The listener is a TCP-based application which provides a way to gather service tag and associated environmental information.

The discoverer service is used by operating system upgrade or register tools to send the service tags data to SUN. There is no other way, how to propagate the collected data to SUN than through the registration tool. The data to be send can be inspected and accepted. The Service Tags Data is going to be analyzed.
