Supported service processor commands

NOTE: SSH Passthrough port sharing is not supported if a server processor command is included at the end of
the SSH command.

When opening an SSH Passthrough session to a target device connected to a supported MergePoint
52xx manager, you may include a service processor (SP) command at the end of the SSH
command. If the SP command is not present at the end of the SSH command, the appliance may
provide the user with a menu of SP commands to choose from.

To include an SP command, open your SSH client and enter a command in the following format:

<username>:<target device name>@<host name or IP address of the DSView 3 server>
[spcommand]

NOTE: Enter a space between <host name or IP address of the DSView 3 server> and [spcommand].

The first part of the command will establish an SSH session to the MergePoint 52xx SP manager. If
a supported SP command is present at the end of the SSH command, the SP command will be
passed through to the service processor on the appliance. The appliance will validate and execute
the command.

For example, a command to open an SSH session to a MergePoint 52xx SP manager and execute an
SP command may look like this:

s s h - p 4 1 2 2 z o n e 1 / j s m i t h : z o n e 2 / M G P @ 1 7 2 . 3 0 . 1 9 . 1 2 2 p o w e r o n

For more information and a list of supported SP commands, see the documentation included with
the MergePoint 52xx SP manager.
