1 Introduction
VIOM provides an easy-to-use Web-based graphical user interface, which
you can launch using the ServerView Operations Manager. Using this inter-
face, you can carry out all the necessary tasks for managing the I/O param-
eters of a PRIMERGY blade server or PRIMERGY rack server and for the
LAN connection blade, the IBP module in PRIMERGY blade server.
VIOM also provides a comprehensive command line interface, which you
can use to perform administrative VIOM tasks in a script-based environment.
The VIOM CLI (command line interface) provides an easy-to-use interface for
creating scripts and automating administrative tasks.
The command line interface is available both on Windows and Linux plat-
forms, and you install it using separate installation packages. For more infor-
mation on VIOM CLI, see the documentation entitled "ServerView Virtual-IO
Manager Command Line Interface".
