Command Line Parameters

Table 1. Command Line Parameters
Parameter	Definition
`host‑name-or-IP-address`	Specify either the host name or the Internet Protocol (IP) address of an in-band managed storage array (IPv4 or IPv6) or an out-of-band managed storage array (IPv4 or IPv6). If you manage a storage array by using a host connected directly to the storage array (in‑band storage management), you must use the `-n` parameter if more than one storage array is connected to the host. If you manage a storage array through an Ethernet connection (out-of-band storage management), you must specify the host‑name‑or‑IP‑address of the redundant array of independent disks (RAID) controller modules. If you have previously configured a storage array in the graphical user interface (GUI) of the MD Storage Manager, you can specify the storage array by its user‑supplied name by using the `-n` parameter.
`-A`	Use to add a storage array to the configuration files. If you do not follow the `-A` parameter with a host‑name‑or‑IP‑address, automatic discovery scans the local subnet for storage arrays.
`-a`	Use to add an SNMP trap destination or an e-mail address alert destination. When adding an SNMP trap destination, the SNMP community is automatically defined as the community name for the trap and the host is the IP address or Domain Name Server (DNS) host name of the system to which the trap should be sent. When adding an e-mail address for an alert destination, the email-address is the e-mail address to which to send the alert message.
`-c`	Use to indicate that you are entering one or more script commands to run on the specified storage array. Terminate each command by using a semicolon (;). You cannot place more than one `-c` parameter on the same command line. You can include more than one script command after the `-c` parameter.
`-d`	Use to display the contents of the script configuration file.
`-e`	Use to disable syntax checking when executing the current CLI command.
`-F (uppercase)`	Use to specify the e-mail address from which all alerts will be sent.
`-f (lowercase)`	Use to specify a file name containing script commands intended to run on the specified storage array. This parameter is similar to the `-c` parameter in that both are intended for running script commands. The `-c` parameter allows you to execute individual script commands. The `-f (lowercase)` parameter allows you to execute script commands contained in a file. NOTE: By default, any errors encountered when running the script commands in a file are ignored, and the file continues to run. To override this behavior, use the `set session errorAction=stop` command in the script file.
`-g`	Use to specify an ASCII file that contains e-mail sender contact information to include in all e-mail alert notifications. The CLI assumes the ASCII file is text only, without delimiters or any expected format. A typical file contains the following information: Name Title Company Phone Pager NOTE: You can use any file name that your operating system supports. You must not use userdata.txt. Some operating systems reserve userdata.txt for system information.
`-h`	Use with the `-a` and `-x` parameters to specify the host name that is running the SNMP agent to which the storage array is connected.
`-I`	Use to specify the type of information to be included in the e-mail alert notifications. The following are valid information arguments: `eventOnly`— Only event information is included in the e-mail. `profile`— Event and array profile information is included in the e-mail. `supportBundle`— Event and support bundle information is included in the e-mail. NOTE: You can enter only one information argument each time you execute the command. If you want all of the information, you must run the command three times.
`-i`	Use with the `-d` parameter to display the IP address of the known storage arrays.
`-m`	Use to specify the host name or IP address of the e-mail server from which to send e-mail alert notifications.
`-n`	Use to specify the name of the storage array on which to run the script commands. This name is optional when you use `host‑name-or-IP-address`; however, if you are using the in-band method for managing the storage array, you must use the `-n` parameter if more than one storage array is connected to the host at the specified address. The storage array name is required when `host‑name-or-IP-address` is not used; however, the name of the storage array configured for use in the MD Storage Manager GUI (that is, listed in the configuration file) must not be a duplicate name of any other configured storage array.
`-o`	Use with the `-c` or `-f` parameter to specify a file name for all output text that is a result of running the script commands.
`-p`	Use to specify the password for the storage array on which to run commands. A password is not necessary under the following conditions: A password has not been set on the storage array. The password is specified in a script file that is running. The storage array password is specified by using the `-c` parameter and the `set session password=` password command.
`-q`	Use to specify how frequently to include additional profile or support bundle information in the e-mail alert notifications. An e-mail alert notification that contains at least the basic event information is always generated for every critical event. If you set the `-I` parameter to `eventOnly`, the only valid argument for `-q` is `everyEvent`. If you set the `-I` parameter to either `profile` or `supportBundle`, this information is included with the e-mails with the frequency specified by the `-q` parameter. Valid frequency arguments are: `everyEvent`— Information is returned with every e-mail alert notification. `2`— Information is returned no more than once every two hours. `4`— Information is returned no more than once every four hours. `8`— Information is returned no more than once every eight hours. `12`— Information is returned no more than once every 12 hours. `24`— Information is returned no more than once every 24 hours.
`-r`	Use with the `-a` or `-x` parameter to specify the name of a management station. The name of a management station can be either direct_sa (out-of-band storage array) or host_sa (in-band storage arrays [host-agent]). The `-r` parameter enables you to set or change the alert notifications for all storage arrays under each management station.
`-S (uppercase)`	Use to suppress the informational messages describing command progress that appear when running script commands. (Suppressing informational messages is also called silent mode.) This parameter suppresses the following messages: Performance syntax check Syntax check complete Executing script Script execution complete SMcli completed successfully
`-s (lowercase)`	Use with the `-d` parameter to display the alert settings in the configuration file.
`-v`	Use with the `-d` parameter to display the current global status of the known devices in the storage array configuration file. (The configuration file lists all of the devices in a storage array configuration and the relationship between the devices. Use the configuration file to reconstruct a storage array).
`-X (uppercase)`	Use to delete a storage array from the configuration file. (The configuration file lists all of the devices in a storage array configuration and the relationship between the devices. Use the configuration file to reconstruct a storage array).
`-x (lowercase)`	Use to remove an SNMP trap destination or an e-mail address alert destination. The community is the SNMP community name for the trap, and the host is the IP address or DNS host name of the system to which you want the trap sent.
`-?`	Use this parameter to display usage information about the CLI commands.
