7.4.1 Adding an
scCashRegister
Object
An associated object representing the cash register must exist in the LDAP database.
This
scCashRegister
object can either represent a specific machine or a generic
machine. The generic object is used if a specific image is not found for the given ma-
chine. In both cases, the
scCashRegister
must have a hardware subobject like
scRamDisk
or
scHarddisk
which specifies where and how the image should be
deployed.
The name of a machine is located in the uploaded
hwtype.
MAC
file under a
HWTYPE
entry. For more information, see Section B.2, “Core Script Process” (page 206).
NOTE: Creating Default
scCashRegister
Objects
To create a default
scCashRegister
object, define the object’s
scCashRegisterName
attribute as
default
as described in Table 7.1,
“posAdmin Options for Creating
scCashRegister
Objects” (page 75).
Define only one default
scCashRegister
object in the Global container.
The
scCashRegister
objects are stored in the Global container so they can be ac-
cessed by all Branch Servers.
NOTE: Defining a System Image for a Point of Service Terminal
A specific system image can be defined in the
scWorkstation
object. The
setting in the
scWorkstation
object overrides the default image defined in
the
scCashRegister
object. For information on this procedure, see Sec-
tion 7.4.8, “Assigning an Image to a Point of Service Terminal” (page 88).
Table 7.1, “posAdmin Options for Creating
scCashRegister
Objects” (page 75)
summarizes the posAdmin command options for
scCashRegister
object attributes.
