VNX or VNXe ?  As far as i know naviseccli is for VNX only.

Does the Navisphere CLI work normally before you create the security file?

For example, try the command "naviseccli -address -User -Password -Scope 0 getagent "

Navisphere CLI is for Block storage, such as CLARiiON and VNX.

Hi,

CLI works fine on my production servers but only when I do not provide it with -User .

The cert store has been initially configured there, and the xml and key files are already present there.

naviseccli -address SP_IP -User -Password -Scope 0 getagent
Error returned from the Management Server on IP
Authentication failed. Possible reasons for failure are invalid security file, invalid username, password and/or scope.

On my new server it does not work at all:

naviseccli -address SP_IP getagent
Security file not found.  Already removed or check -secfilepath option.

My aim is to create xml and key for new operator account.

Please try this format

naviseccli -h SP_IP -User -Scope 0 getagent

Still the same error:

Error returned from the Management Server on Authentication failed. Possible reasons for failure are invalid security file, invalid username, password and/or scope.

if my memory serves me right you can't re-use the security file created for other users, even if it's on the same machine. Security file is unique to each user profile for that specific machine. Not sure if that has anything to do with your issues.

Do -RemoveUserSecurity and clear existing cache and then re-run. Just make sure you enter global/local as per your setup.

It is brand new server installation. No security credentials files were created at the time of installing NaviCLI.

There is no old security file definition.

naviseccli -address IP –RemoveUserSecurity

Security file not found.  Already removed or check -secfilepath option.

What is the whay to clear the cache ?
