5 – Detailed Descriptions of Command LineTools
Basic Setup and Administration Tools
Host Examples:
cmdall date
cmdall 'uname -a'
cmdall -h 'elrond arwen' date
HOSTS='elrond arwen' cmdall date
Chassis Examples:
cmdall -C 'ismPortStats'
cmdall -C -H 'chassis1 chassis2' ismPortStats
CHASSIS='chassis1 chassis2' cmdall ismPortStats
Environment Variables
The following environment variables are also used by this command:
HOSTS, HOSTS_FILE - see discussion on selection of hosts above
CHASSIS, CHASSIS_FILE - see discussion on selection of chassis above
FF_MAX_PARALLEL - when -p option is used maximum number of parallel
operations to perform at once.
FF_CHASSIS_LOGIN_METHOD - how to login to chassis. Can be ssh or telnet
FF_CHASSIS_ADMIN_PASSWORD - password for admin on all chassis. Used
in absence of -S option.
NOTE:
When performing cmdall against hosts, internally ssh is used. The command
cmdall requires that password-less ssh be setup between the host running Fast
Fabric and the hosts cmdall is operating against. The setup_ssh Fast Fabric
tool can aid in setting up password-less ssh.
When performing cmdall against a set of chassis, all chassis must be configured
with the same admin password.
5-16
All commands performed with cmdall must be non-interactive in nature.
cmdall will wait for the command to complete before proceeding. For
example, when running host commands such as rm, the -i option
(interactively prompt before removal) should not be used (Note that this
option is sometimes part of a standard bash alias list). Similarly, when
running chassis commands such as fwUpdateChassis, the -reboot
option should not be used (this option causes an immediate reboot
therefore, the command never returns). Similarly, the chassis command
reboot should not be executed via cmdall. Instead use the ibtest -C
reboot Fast Fabric command to reboot one or more chassis For further
information about individual chassis CLI commands consult the
SilverStorm 9000 CLI Reference Guide. For further information about
Linux OS commands, consult the Linux man pages and any other
documentation supplied with the OS by the OS supplier.
