How to install PERL Execpt and Net::SFTP

Hi John,

 

 

Jason has some steps here using a vanilla CentOS instance:

I think this would work:

 

 

Using CentOS, you can download the module from CPAN, extract it and chdir to the newly created directory. Use PREFIX when you prepare the Makefile:

 

 

perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=/home/module/usr/local

 

 

The rest would be as usual:

 

 

make

 

make test

 

make install

 

 

Once it's done, transfer /home/module/usr/local to LTM. More detail about how to transfer the binary to LTM, you can take a look at Jason's steps.

 

 

Add the following line at the top of any of your scripts that require the module:

 

 

use lib "/home/module/usr/local/";

 

 

Good luck ...

Is there a version of EXPECT already installed? The link below discusses the creation of a custom monitor using EXPECT??

Thank you,

It's TCL's expect.
