4. CLI Client Command Usage
Overview
The CLI Client component of the OneCommand Manager application provides access
to the capabilities of the Remote Management library or the CIM interface from a
console command prompt to get the management information. The CLI Client is
intended for use in scripted operations from within shell scripts or batch files. The CLI
Client is a console application named HbaCmd. A single operation is performed by
entering “hbacmd”, followed by a CLI client command and its possible parameters, at
the command line. For example:
hbacmd <command> [parameters]
Note: To run the HbaCmd application when Secure Management is enabled, you
must include your user name and password each time you type a command.
For example:

Secure Management disabled:
hbacmd <command>

Secure Management enabled:
hbacmd <m=sec> <userid><password><command>
User names and passwords are used to authenticate the commands. Once the
credentials are authenticated, the OCM will determine which one of the four
user groups you belong to and will allow command usage as appropriate. See
“OneCommand Manager Secure Management” on page 296 for more
information.
When the specified operation is completed, the command prompt is displayed. For a
majority of commands, the first parameter following the command is the WWPN or
MAC address of the port that the command is to act upon.
CLI in Read-Only Mode May Cause Error Message
Note: The CLI does not allow the execution of certain commands when it is
configured for read-only mode. The following error message is returned if such
a command is attempted:
Error: Read-only management mode is currently set on this host.
The requested command is not permitted in this mode.
