## How to Modify Managed Host Properties (Command Line)

For the list of properties, see Chapter 10, Parameters for Shared Profiles and Host Properties (Reference).

1. Determine the managed host's properties that you want to modify.

   For example, modify the properties of the `web-server/ApacheServer/host2` managed host.

2. Modify the property values of the managed host.

       $ changemgr hostset [ -u username ] [ -p file ] [ -d domain ] \
       [ -s name=value ] ... [ -s name ] ... topopath ...

   `-s` name=value

     Specifies one or more name-value pairs. name is the property name, and value is the property value. Supply this option for each property value you want to set. If value is blank, then the property is assigned an empty value.

   `-s` name

     Specifies one or more property names to delete, where name is the property name. Supply this option for each property you want to delete.

   topopath

     Specifies the path to a managed host or host group that is relative to the top of the selected administrative domain.

   For descriptions of the other options, see How to Create a Host Group (Command Line).
