If the storage subsystem is configured in the Enterprise Management window, the storage
subsystem can be specified by its user-supplied name only by using the -n option. The
name must be unique to the Enterprise Management window, for example:
SMcli -n <name of the DS5000 storage subsystem>
If the name of the DS5000 storage subsystem consists of spaces and special characters,
double quotes (") have to be used around the name, for example:
SMcli -n "Remote DS5100"
Host-agent managed (in-band): Use the
(the host that is running the SMagent). For example:
SMcli <hostname of managing station>
The -n option must be used if more than one host-agent managed storage subsystem is
connected to the host, for example:
SMcli <hostname of managing station> -n <name of the DS5000 storage subsystem>
If the world-wide name of the storage subsystem is specified, use the -w option instead of
the -n option, for example:
SMcli -w 600A0B800029ED2200000000489C6F56
The interactive command-line mode is entered after executing one of the above commands,
where one or more commands can be entered. SMcli verifies the existence of the specified
storage subsystems and returns to a command prompt to await your instructions. Once you
have entered the commands, press Ctrl-c to return to the operating system command prompt.
