Explanation
NAME
hpasmcli - HP management CLI

SYNOPSIS
hpasmcli [-s "<command1>;<command2>;...<commandN>"]

DESCRIPTION
hpasmcli is a scriptable command line interface for interacting with
the hpasmd or hpasmxld management daemons. It is used to view/set/mod-
ify BIOS settings such as hyperthreading, boot control, and UID LEDs.
It can be used to display hardware status, such as fans, power sup-
plies, etc. It also can show, repair, and clear the IML.

The CLI supports TAB completion of command names and has a history
buffer that can be accessed using the up/down arrows.

In addition to the command line interface, hpasmcli also supports a

mode that is usable for incorporating into basic shell scripts. The
return value of hpasmcli in script mode can be used to verify a command
executed successfully. If multiple commands are executed, only the sta-

08/01/2018 HP Proliant Server:hpasmcli [cmdref.net - Command Reference]
tus of the last command is returned to the shell. As an example, the
following first executes the ´SHOW SERVER´ command to retrieve basic
system information, and next reads the status of the UID:

hpasmcli -s "show server; show uid"

OPTIONS
-s "<command1>;<command2;...<commandN>"

Enables script mode. hpasmcli will execute the commands listed as argu-
ments in the order written. At least one command must be specified.
