Installing a custom signature script

Last published : Jul 06, 2026
After copying a custom signature script to Management Server, you must install the custom signature. Ensure that the script is in the executable format.
To install a custom signature on Management Server, you can use the pcreg utility, which is available in the following locations:
  • On UNIX/Linux-based Management Server - /opt/VRTSsfmh/bin
  • On Windows-based Management Server - C:\Program Files\VERITAS\VRTSsfmh\bin
Use the following syntax for running the utility to install a custom signature:
  • pcreg --script custom signature script
    Note: Provide the full path to the custom signature script.
After you install the custom signature, you must copy the custom signature script to the managed hosts where you want to register it.
