4.5 Adding Additional Hosts to the Hosts File

You can add additional entries to the hosts file for the SaaS Account Management appliance. You must add the entry to the /etc/opt/novell/base/hosts.appliance file manually. Attempting to change the host entries through any other means will not work.

  1. Log in to the appliance management console as the vaadmin user.

    https://mycompany.example.com:9443
  2. Access the command line console of the appliance.

  3. Navigate to /etc/opt/novell/base/hosts.appliance.

  4. Open the file in a text editor, then add the additional entries to the hosts file.

  5. Save and then close the file.

  6. Reboot the appliance to have the change take effect.
