Server Management Commands Summary |
The service processor (SP) includes a suite of commands that enables management and monitoring of the server. This suite of commands is referred to as the server-management commands.
Note - This appendix provides an overview of the server-management command groups that are available on the SP. For a detailed description of the subcommands, arguments, and return codes for each command type, refer to the appendices in this guide, as described in TABLE A-1. |
You must use ssh to execute these commands on the service processor (SP). There are two ways to do this:
Log in to the interactive shell by running the command:
# ssh -l spipaddr spuser
Preface each command with the following text:
# ssh -l spipaddr spuser
The server-management commands take arguments, perform one or more actions, and display the result or text to the standard output device. Commands are grouped by similar function; each command has numerous subcommands supporting functions within that grouping.
Note - Every subcommand (except help) returns a return code upon completion. See Return Codes for a summary. |
