Command Line Interface

The CLI provides a director and switch management alternative to the HAFM
application, Product Manager application, and EWS user interface. The interface
allows users to access application functions by entering commands through a
PC-attached telnet session. Any platform that supports Telnet client software can
be used.
The primary purpose of the CLI is to automate management of several directors or
switches using scripts. Although the CLI is designed for use in a host-based
scripting environment, basic commands (config, maint, perf, and show)
can be entered directly at disk operating system (DOS) window command prompt.
The CLI is not an interactive interface; no checking is done for pre-existing
conditions, and a user prompt does not display to guide users through tasks.
For additional information, refer to the HP StorageWorks CLI Reference Guide for
Edge Switches and Directors.
