The Component Instance Manager (CIM) Command-line Utility is a tool to create components, delete components, and view components. The CAS Service must be running before you can execute any of the CIM Command-line Utility tasks.

In this version of CAS, the types of components you can manage with the CIM Command-line Utility are Record Store components. In future releases, the utility may be extended to manage additional types of components.

The CIM Command-line Utility is a script named component-manager-cmd.sh (for Linux/UNIX systems) and component-manager-cmd.bat (on Windows) that you run from a command prompt. The script is in the bin directory.
