ILOM and ALOM CMT Command Comparison Tables

Table 12 ALOM CMT Shell Configuration Commands

ALOM CMT Command	Summary	Comparable ILOM Command
`password`	Changes the login password of the current user.	`set /SP/users/username password`
`restartssh`	Restarts the SSH server so that new host keys generated by the `ssh-keygen` command are reloaded.	`set /SP/services/ssh restart_sshd_action=true`
`setdate` [[`mmdd`]`HHMM` \|`mmddHHMM`[`cc`]`yy`][.`SS`]	Sets ALOM CMT date and time.	`set /SP/clock datetime=value`
`setdefaults` `setdefaults –a`	Resets all ALOM CMT configuration parameters to their default values. The `–a` option resets the user information to the factory default (one `admin` account only).	`set /SP reset_to_defaults=configuration` `set /SP reset_to_defaults=all`
`setkeyswitch [normal\|stby\|diag\| locked]`	Sets the status of the virtual keyswitch. Setting the virtual keyswitch to standby (`stby`) powers off the server. Before powering off the host server, ALOM CMT asks for a confirmation.	`set /SYS keyswitch_state=value`
`setsc` [`param`] [`value`]	Sets the specified ALOM CMT parameter to the assigned value.	`set` `target` `property=value`
`setupsc`	Runs the interactive configuration script. This script configures the ALOM CMT configuration variables.	No equivalent in ILOM
`showplatform [–v]`	Displays information about the host system’s hardware configuration, and whether the hardware is providing service. The `–v` option displays verbose information about the displayed components.	`show /HOST`
`showfru`	Displays information about the field-replaceable units (FRUs) in a host server.	No equivalent in ILOM
`showusers` `showusers –g` `lines`	Displays a list of users currently logged in to ALOM CMT. The display for this command has a similar format to that of the UNIX command `who`. The `–g` option pauses the display after the number of lines you specify for `lines`.	`show /SP/sessions` No equivalent in ILOM
`showhost` `showhost` `version`	Displays version information for host-side components. The `version` option displays the same information as the `showhost` command with no option.	`show /HOST`

`showsc` [`param`]	Displays the current non-volatile random access memory (NVRAM) configuration parameters.	`show` `target` `property`
`showdate`	Displays the ALOM CMT date. ALOM CMT time is expressed in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) rather than local time. The Solaris OS and ALOM CMT time are not synchronized.	`show /SP/clock datetime`
`ssh-keygen` `–l` `ssh-keygen` `–r` `ssh-keygen –t` {`rsa\|dsa}`	Generates Secure Shell (SSH) host keys and displays the host key fingerprint on the SC.	`show /SP/services/ssh/keys rsa\|dsa` `set /SP/services/ssh generate_new_key_action=true` `set /SP/services/ssh generate_new_key_type=[rsa\|dsa]`
`usershow` [`username`]	Displays a list of all user accounts, permission levels, and whether passwords are assigned.	`show /SP/users`
`useradd` `username`	Adds a user account to ALOM CMT.	`create /SP/users/username`
`userdel` `username` `userdel –y` `username`	Deletes a user account from ALOM CMT. The `–y` option enables you to skip the confirmation question.	`delete /SP/users/username` `delete –script /SP/users/username`
`userpassword` [`username`]	Sets or changes a user password.	`set /SP/users/username` `password`
`userperm` [`username`] [`c`] [`u`] [`a`] [`r`]	Sets the permission level for a user account.	`set /SP/users/username` `role=permissions` `(`where `permissions` are `Administrator` or `Operator)`

Table 13 ALOM CMT Shell Log Commands

ALOM CMT Command	Summary	Comparable ILOM Command
`showlogs [–b` `lines`\|`–e` `lines`\|`–v`] [`–g` `lines`] [`-p logtype[r\|p]]`	Displays the history of all events logged in the ALOM CMT RAM event log, or major and critical events in the persistent log. The –p option selects whether to display entries only from the RAM event log (`logtype` `r`) or the persistent event log (`logtype` `p`).	`show /SP/logs/event/list` No equivalent in ILOM
`consolehistory [–b` `lines`\|`–e` `lines`\|`–v`] [`–g` `lines`] [`boot`\|`run`]	Displays the host server console output buffers.	No equivalent in ILOM

Table 14 ALOM CMT Shell Status and Control Commands

ALOM CMT Command	Summary	Comparable ILOM Command
`showenvironment`	Displays the environmental status of the host server. This information includes system temperatures, power supply status, front panel LED status, hard disk drive status, fan status, voltage, and current sensor status.	`show –o table –level all /SYS`
`showpower [–v]`	Displays power metrics for the host server.	`show /SP/powermgmt`
`shownetwork [–v]`	Displays the current network configuration information. The `–v` option shows additional information about your network, including information about your DHCP server.	`show /SP/network`
`console` `console` `–f`	Connects to the host system console. The `–f` option forces the console write lock from one user to another.	`start /SP/console` No equivalent in ILOM
`break` `–c` `break` `–D`	Drops the host server from running the Solaris OS software into OpenBoot PROM or `kmdb` depending upon the mode in which the Solaris software was booted.	`set /HOST send_break_action=break` `set /HOST send_break_action=dumpcore`
`bootmode [normal] [reset_nvram] [config=configname][bootscript =string`]	Controls the host server OpenBoot PROM firmware method of booting.	`set /HOST/bootmode` `property=value` `[`where `property` is `state,` `config,` or `script]`
`flashupdate –s` `IPaddr` `–f` `pathname` [`–v`]	Downloads and updates system firmware (both host firmware and ALOM CMT firmware). For ILOM, `ipaddr` must be a TFTP server. If DHCP is used, `ipaddr` can be replaced by the name of the TFTP host.	`load –source tftp://ipaddr/pathname`
`reset [–c]` `reset [–y][–c]` `reset –f` `reset –d` `reset [–d][–f]` `reset [–d][–n]` `reset [–d][–f][–n]`	Attempts to gracefully reset the system. If that fails, this option forcefully reset the system. Forcfully resets the system. Attempts to gracefully reset the control domain. If that fails, this option forcefully reset the control domain. Forcefully resets the control domain. When resetting the control domain, this option may automatically boot (this is the default behavior when the `auto-boot` option is not specified). When resetting the control domain, this option does not automatically boot and stays at the OpenBoot `ok` prompt. This option overrides all reboot variables and stops the control domain at the OpenBoot `ok` prompt after host reset. The `auto-boot?` option remains unchanged, thus subsequest reset commands automatically reboot host if the `auto-boot?` option is set to `true`.	`reset /SYS` `reset -script /SYS` `reset -f /SYS` `reset /HOST/domain/control` `reset - f /HOST/domain/control` `set /HOST/domain/control` auto-boot=disable reset /HOST/domain/control `set /HOST/domain/control auto-boot=disable reset -f /HOST/domain/control`
`powercycle [–y] [–f]` `powercycle –y` `powercycle -f`	`poweroff` followed by `poweron`. The `–f` option forces an immediate `poweroff`, otherwise the command attempts a graceful shutdown.	`stop /SYS` `start /SYS` `stop –script /SYS` `start –script /SYS` `stop –force /SYS` `start –force /SYS`
`poweroff` `poweroff –y` `poweroff –f`	Removes the main power from the host server. The `–y` option enables you to skip the confirmation question. ALOM CMT attempts to shut the server down gracefully. The `–f` option forces an immediate shutdown.	`stop /SYS` `stop –script /SYS` `stop –force /SYS`
`poweron`	Applies the main power to the host server or FRU.	`start /SYS`
`setlocator [on/off`]	Turns the Locator LED on the server on or off.	`set /SYS/LOCATE value=value`
`showfaults [–v]`	Displays current valid system faults.	`show /SP/faultmgmt`
`clearfault` `UUID`	Manually repairs system faults.	`set /SYS/component` `clear_fault_action=true`
`showlocator`	Displays the current state of the Locator LED as either on or off.	`show /SYS/LOCATE`
