This chapter contains the following sections:
Overview of the Command Shell
The command shell is a simple command-line interface. Through the command shell, you can administer your Sun IB switch.
After you log in to your account, the shell prompt (sc>) appears, and you can enter shell commands. See CLI Shell Commands for more information.
 Entering Command Options

showib
Use the showib command to display InfiniBand switch status. Two sections of information are displayed. The first section contains the InfiniBand topology information, that is, which host channel adapter (HCA) is connected to the various switch ports. The second section contains information related to the local switch ports.
In a multi-switch topology, only the switch controlling the IB setup will display the first section

showusers
Use the showusers command to display the list of users currently logged-in to ALOM. The list includes details such as the type of connection, the duration of each user's session, and the IP address of the client (if the user is using a network connection).
|
To Use the showusers Command
|
|
Note - You do not need user permissions to use this command.
|
At the sc> prompt, type the following command:
The system displays user information similar to the following example:
sc> showusers
username connection login time IP address
-------- ---------- ---------- ----------
admin net-1 Mar 03 16:42 UTC 129.149.2.17
admin net-2 Mar 03 22:04 UTC 129.150.25.245
|
|
Note - The switch allows a maximum of four Telnet sessions and one serial session for all users, at any time.
|
useradd
Use the useradd command to add a user account.
|
To Use the useradd Command
|
|
Note - You must have u level user permission to use this command. See userperm for information on setting user permissions.
|
At the sc> prompt, type the following command:
where username is the name of the user whose account you want to add to ALOM.
username has the following restrictions:
- Valid characters include alphabetic (letter) and numeric characters, period (.), underscore (_), and hyphen (-).
- Maximum length is 16 characters, at least one of which must be a lowercase alphabetic character.
- The first character must be alphabetic.
You can add a maximum of 50 unique user accounts to ALOM.
To assign a password to a user name, use the userpassword command. See userpassword.
To set permission levels for a user name, use the userperm command. See userperm.
userdel
Use the userdel command to delete a user account. Once the account is deleted, the deleted user's configuration information can never be recovered.
If the user name you specify is not on the list of users, the system returns an error message. Likewise, if there is only one user on the list, you cannot delete that user account.
|
Note - You cannot delete the default admin user account.
|
|
To Use the userdel Command
|
|
Note - You must have u level user permission to use this command. See userperm for information on setting user permissions.
|
At the sc> prompt, type the following command:
where username is the name of the user account you want to delete.
userpassword
Use the userpassword command to change the password for the specified user account. This command is for administrators who must change user passwords, but who might not know what the user account passwords are. If you are trying to change the password on your own account, use the password command. See password.
|
To Use the userpassword Command
|
|
Note - You must have u level user permission to use this command. See userperm for information on setting user permissions.
|
At the sc> prompt, type the following command:
sc> userpassword username
|
where username is the name of the user account for which you want to change the password.
When you use this command, ALOM does not prompt you for the existing password.
For example:
sc> userpassword msmith
New password:
Re-enter new password:
sc>
|
Password Restrictions
Passwords have the following restrictions:
- They must contain between six and eight characters.
- They must contain at least two alphabetic characters (uppercase or lowercase letters) and at least one numeric or special character.
- They must differ from the user's login name, and any reverse or circular shift of the user's login name. For comparison purposes, uppercase and lowercase letters are equivalent.
- They must differ from the old password by at least three characters. For comparison purposes, uppercase and lowercase letters are equivalent.
|
Note - These password restrictions do not apply to a user with u permission.
|
userperm
Use the userperm command to set or change permission levels for a specified user account. By default, the initial setup procedure creates the admin account. This account cannot be deleted, nor can you change the user permissions for the account.
Permission Levels
All users can read ALOM information, but authorization is required to perform ALOM functions or change settings. There are four permission levels that increase a user's authorization. You can specify zero through four permission levels.
TABLE 3-13 userperm Permission Levels
|
Permission Level
|
Description
|
|
a
|
Administrative. This user is authorized to change the state of ALOM configuration variables and perform flashupdate command.
|
|
u
|
User administration. This user is authorized to add users and delete users, change user permissions, and change the authorization level of other users. See useradd and userdel.
|
|
c
|
Console permission. (Not used, preserved for compatibility.)
|
|
r
|
Reset/power permission. This user is authorized to reset the switch, and power the FRUs on and off. See poweron, and poweroff.
|
If you do not assign a permission level to the specified user (that is, you assign zero permission levels), then that user has read-only permission. This is the default level for a new ALOM user account.
|
Note - The default user permission for the account that you use when you start ALOM for the first time is read only. After you set a password for the default admin account, the permissions change to cuar (full authorization).
|
To view a user's permission levels, use the usershow command. See usershow.
|
To Use the userperm Command
|
|
Note - You must have u level user permission to use this command
|
At the sc> prompt, type the following command:
sc> userperm username permission(s)
|
where username is the name of the user to whom you want to assign permissions, and permission(s) is the permission(s) you want to assign to that user.
For example, to assign c and r user permissions to user msmith, type the following at the ALOM command prompt:
To see a user's permission levels, use the usershow command.
A user with read-only permission can use only the following commands:
A user who has read-only permissions would appear similar to the user mike in the following example:
sc> usershow mike
username permissions password?
-------- ----------- ---------
mike ---- Assigned
|
usershow
Use the usershow command to display a specified user's ALOM account, along with each user's permissions and whether a password has been assigned. See userperm and userpassword.
If you do not enter a username, usershow displays all of the user accounts.
|
To Use the usershow Command
|
|
Note - You must have u level user permission to use this command. See userperm for information on setting user permissions.
|
At the sc> prompt, type the following command:
where username is the name of the specified user, Mike is the specified user in the following example.
For example:
sc> usershow mike
