Options

-name name: In name, specify the resource name of the target storage management software to perform an operation with.

-soft_name soft_name

In soft_name, specify the storage management software. The names that can be specified are as follow:

When using ETERNUS SF Storage Cruiser, specify "esc".
An error occurs if -ip, -port, -user_name, -passwd, or -passwd_file are specified in addition to "esc".
When using Data ONTAP, specify "ontap".
An error occurs if -ip, -user_name, -passwd, or -passwd_file are not specified when specifying "ontap".
For PRIMECLUSTER GDS, specify "gds".
An error occurs if -ip, -user_name, -passwd, or -passwd_file are not specified when specifying "gds".
When using Navisphere, specify "emcns".
An error will occur if -ip is not specified when specifying "emcns".
An error will occur if -port, -user_name, -passwd, or -passwd_file are specified when specifying "emcns".
When using Solutions Enabler, specify "emcse".
An error will occur if -ip, -port, -user_name, -passwd, or -passwd_file are specified when specifying "emcse".

-soft_url url

In url, specify the URL to use to access the storage management software.

When specifying -soft_name esc and managing only an ETERNUS, specify the URL of ETERNUSmgr for the ETERNUS.

When managing multiple ETERNUSs, do not specify -soft_url.

-ip ipaddress: In ipaddress, specify an IP address to use to access the storage management software.

-port number: In number, specify a port number to use to access the storage management software.

-user_name user_name

In user_name, specify the user ID for the storage management software.

-passwd password: In password, specify the password for the storage management software.

-passwd_file password_file: In password_file, specify the password file for the storage management software. When users other than administrators use an admin server, it is dangerous to specify the password using an argument such as -passwd because the arguments of commands issued by other users can be viewed. Use the -passwd_file option.
In the file that defines the passwords, enter a user name and password on each line, separated by a comma (","). The password entered in the line including the user name specified with the -user_name option will be registered.

-verbose: Use this option to increase the items displayed in the list of information.

-comment comment: In comment, specify the new comments.
