IBM Blade Center Management Module CLI reference by example by Robert Chase robert.b.chase@gmail.

com Further information Management Module command-line interface reference guide - IBM BladeCenter MIGR-54667 Command Targets The -T switch species the target of the command. Here are some common Targets that you will nd. Many commands without targets will not execute and will give an error message about the target. The prompt within the CLI will indicate the default target established by the env variable. System is the default level of the CLI and all commands are levels below it. Without a target specied the command will execute against the current target dened by the prompt. system mm blade switch mt The outer chassis and blowers Management module Blade server I/O Switch module such as FC or ESM Media Tray

Interactive Help By entering help or ? from the command line the user is presented with the following command list. For most commands issuing the command itself will either execute the command or issue further interactive help messages. system> ? or help ? -- Display commands accseccfg -- View/edit account security cong advfailover -- View/edit advanced failover mode alertcfg -- Displays/Congures the global remote alert settings alertentries -- View/edit remote alert recipients baydata -- View/edit Blade Bay Data string boot -- Boot target bootmode -- Boot mode bootseq -- View/edit the blade boot sequence settings cin -- Displays/Congures Chassis Internal Network cinstatus -- Displays Status of Chassis Internal Network clear -- Clear the cong clearlog -- Clear the event log clock -- View/edit date, time, GMT offset, and dst setting cong -- View/edit general settings console -- Start SOL session to a blade dhcpinfo -- View DHCP server assigned settings displaylog -- Display log entries displaysd -- Display service data
