Performing Advanced Functions

To download and install one or more SSH keys, enter:

DOWNLOAD SSHKEY <URL>

This command will download and install a file containing one or more SSH keys
which are authorized to log into the Integrated Administrator. The new file will
replace any existing keys.

Supported protocols are http, ftp and tftp. The URL should be formatted like the
following:

protocol://host/path/file

If your ftp server does not support anonymous logins, you can specify a username
and password by replacing the host part (in previous format) with:

username:password@host

The Integrated Administrator supports multiple SSH keys in one downloaded file.
Max file size for SSH keys is 16K.

Key-based SSH logins has an advantage for use with scripting as well. Remote
commands can be sent to any Integrated Administrator after installing the appropriate
authorized key without having to enter a password between each command. Using
the OpenSSH package, the user can send commands using the following syntax:

ssh user@host command

Commands can be grouped together to perform a series of actions. To view the health
status of the enclosure and all blades with a single command, enter:

ssh user@hostSHOW ENCLOSURE STATUS; SHOW STATUS BAY ALL”

By having an authorized key file installed on the Integrated Administrator, the user
can combine these without having to enter a password between each command sent
to the Integrated Administrator.
