NOTE: You cannot change templates whose name ends with the .default suffix. sptemplate warns about this
restriction if you try to edit or rename these templates, and it requests confirmation before allowing you to create
a new template with a .default suffix through the New, Rename or Copy functions.
Using the sptemplate utility
A template can be configured to keep repeating commands to achieve a goal such as reading output
from multiple classes of sensors on an RSA II target device or reading multiple event log files one
by one until no more log files exist on an iLOtype service processor. Commands may be repeated
until a string, such as No more entries, is returned. When commands are repeated, an escape
sequence can be used to automatically increment the number in the command, which is needed, for
example, when checking event log files.
The default editor used by sptemplate is vi. You can substitute nano for vi before invoking the
sptemplate utility, as shown in the following example:
admin@MergePoint:~# export EDITOR=/bin/nano
After being invoked, the sptemplate utility displays the action menu shown in the
following example:
admin@MergePoint:~# mgp_template
